The script by Guy Busick and James Vanderbilt is serviceable and intermittently entertaining

Scream VI
Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett’s latest chapter in the “Scream” franchise is not a prequel or a ‘requel’ like the characters in the film assert regarding the film within this film. It’s now an IP so even the legacy characters could well be killed off without any qualms.
The latest generation of Woodsboro survivors has moved over to New York City, hoping for a new life far away from the suburban shadow of Ghostface. But their peace is short-lived. The movie opens with the killing of a film professor, and as the body count quickly escalates, the reluctantly minted ‘core four,’ Samantha Carpenter (Melissa Barrera), her sister, Tara (Jenna Ortega), and twins Mindy (Jasmin Savoy Brown) and Chad (Mason Gooding) prepare to escape yet again. But where will they go to escape the new Ghostface who seems to be multiplying even as the body count increments?
