Review: “The Movie Show Does Horror”

 

Overview

This week’s episode of The Movie Show focuses on horror which is timely because there is a masked killer running around Modesto, CA aka the lucky hometown of where the Syfy series is produced. After a visit from the Ghostface Killer to check in on the new Scream reboot, we get a check-in with Randy, and discover that he isn’t the killer, but helps us unmask the real culprit.

Our Take

I recently watched the entire Scream series via MTV on Netflix and I think this week’s episode of The Movie Show might have been more exciting than the entire third season. In any case, I would’ve preferred an episode that went a bit deeper into the mythos of horror and really bring out the gags, especially because I don’t know if I’d classify Scream “horror” more so than “slasher”, but here we are. Rory Scovel is a national treasure and we need to write more books about him.
