From Randy's rules to survive a horror movie and the "Stab" franchise-within-a-franchise to resident iconic masked menace Ghostface, the "Scream" films have spent 30 years tackling scary flicks in the most meta fashion.
With OG final girl Sidney Prescott (played by Neve Campbell), intrepid reporter Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) and lovable lawman Dewey Riley (David Arquette), director Wes Craven's original 1996 film took pop culture by storm. It set the stage for three decades of important reveals, notable cameos and gory kills that kept audiences on the edge of their seats.
"Scream 7" (in theaters now) features Sidney squaring off yet again with her nemesis Ghostface. Now, however, her teen daughter Tatum (Isabel May) is at risk when the villain tracks Sidney down to her quiet new hometown. Which means a fresh body count, a mix of old and new faces, and another surprise assailant under Ghostface's hood.
But where does the new slasher rank in the franchise? Here's every "Scream" movie so far, from worst to best. (The first six films are all streaming on Paramount+.)
