Wes Craven Part Two (Scream & New Nightmare)

The Uncut Network - Directors, Actors and Genres

Mar 16 2022 • 1 hr 23 mins

First-ever two-parter here on Directors Uncut, so, welcome back Wes Craven!

In the last episode, we looked at two outliers in Cursed & the Last House on the Left, now we get real up close and personal with two of his most well-regarded films - New Nightmare (1994) and Scream (1996).

Rob is joined by Andy (Road to Nowhere), Melissa (Ghouls Magazine) and Gav (My Favourite Film), to talk about these two landmark classics as well as questionably age-blind merch, weird kills and the legacy of two very different faces of the macabre.

Then we also find time to highlight Nightmare Alley, An American Werewolf in London and more. Also, a technical note. We are aware of the audio distortion throughout the show. While impossible to ignore, it is still a perfectly listenable and fun episode.
