Scream started out as a critique of the slasher genre while also trying to have fun with those narrative conventions. The film eventually birthed three sequels as well as three seasons of a TV series that ran for two seasons on MTV and one season on VH1. But with IP remaining incredibly valuable to studios, Spyglass...
