E251 - Scream 7 - What Would YOU Do?

This week on Cinema IRL, Scott and Amber are catching up with Sidney Prescott—now Sidney Evans—in *Scream 7*, where the only thing scarier than a new Ghostface is the "full-on nostalgia mode" of AI-resurrected dead characters. They’re debating the exact age a child should learn their mother is a legendary final girl and why Sidney’s daughter, Tatum, really needs to "suck it up, buttercup" when it comes to double-tapping a killer. Scott questions the tactical integrity of a police chief who forgets to check the attic, while Amber suggests that burning the entire house down is the only reasonable response to a home invasion. From the ethics of "bubble parenting" to the logistics of a laptop-based assault, the duo breaks down why you should never, ever trust a teenage boy with a tech hobby. It’s a masterclass in slasher survival where the golden rule is simple: if they’re down, you empty the clip.
