Scream Finally Confirmed a Nightmare on Elm Street Easter Egg
1996 saw a ringing telephone that a young girl answered unaware she was kickstarting a horror legend. Unbeknownst to her, Wes Craven’s Scream, with its launch, initiated one of the most iconic horror series in recent times. Fast forward to 2022, and a fresh chapter emerged, blending continuation and soft reboot, introducing new protagonists engaged in the same high-stakes struggle for survival. The latest installment, Scream (2022), was a pleasant surprise, striking a balance between honoring the original’s witty self-referential humor and steering the franchise towards contemporary themes.
