Movie Review: I scream, you scream, we all scream, but 'Scream 7' is an uninspired bore

“Scream 7” brings Neve Campbell back as Sidney Prescott, but the movie leans on old tricks and sloppy scares, says AP critic Mark Kennedy. On Friday, Paramount releases the film in theaters. Sidney now lives in a planned suburb. She runs a cafe and raises a rebellious teenage daughter. A new Ghostface killer drags her back into violence. Kevin Williamson returns to direct and co-write. Courteney Cox also returns as Gale Weathers. The story adds brutal kills and deepfake drama. Kennedy calls the R-rated movie slack and rarely scary.
