1. Classic Slasher Plot
It is no secret that the Scream movie franchise was a slasher film series. It is the classic "everyone split-up" and then the characters get picked off one-by-one plot. The TV series created by MTV is no different! The show continues on with the classic themes of a slasher film, but stretches it over a longer period of time, adding more characters and potential suspects.
2. Noah Foster
Noah is one of the main characters of the show. He fulfills the nerdy guy stereotype that is seen in most shows, but he has a special interest in serial killers, which of course is helpful when a killer is on the loose. He isn't only smart though, he also acts as the comic relief throughout the series. He has the ability to take a line that would be rather morbid and cryptic and make it hilarious!
3. The Killer's "Voice"
Following in the footsteps of the iconic Scream films, the TV show's killer also calls the main character with threats and cryptic jokes to mess with her head. The killer uses a voice disguising app, which results in a sort of humorous Barney-like voice. At first it is kind of creepy, which is usually the point, however after a while it becomes quite comical.
4. Redeemable Characters
The writers on this project have the incredible ability to create redeemable characters. You are instantly attached to the characters and even if they do something questionable, it is almost impossible to dislike them! On the off chance you do start to dislike a character, they use some sort of magic to pull you back in, and just as you begin to like a character they kill them off! It is disappointing in the moment, but it also keeps you coming back for more...
Now login to your Netflix account and binge away! The third season of the show will be released in March of 2018, thus you have plenty of time to get caught up...
