Where to start with Scream

Release order, all seven, and that really is all there is to it. The only thing worth saying up front is that the 2022 film is called Scream and is not a remake, which trips up almost everyone who finds it on a streaming menu.

  1. 1
    Scream (1996) Scream

    The one that made horror self-aware, and every later film in the series is a joke told at its expense. Nothing before it, and the reveal only works cold.

  2. 2
    Scream 2 (1997) Scream 2

    Made a year later and set a couple of years on, with the survivors at college. It is a direct sequel and assumes you know exactly who lived.

  3. 3
    Scream (2022) Scream

    Confusingly also called Scream, and it is the fifth film, not a reboot. It brings the original three back and its plot depends on the 1996 film's killer.

Then what? Watch three and four between them, in order. Then Scream VI and Scream 7. Every film is a direct sequel to the one before it, nobody is rebooted, and the survivors carry through all seven. The MTV television series is a different thing entirely and is not part of this.

A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.

Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.

The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.

Every franchise you have touched, in one code.

Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.

Drag a SagaList image here, or .

This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.

Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.

Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
