Welcome to Scream Stream’s new format. Instead of doing a movie review, I’m going to be focusing on the horror related news of the week and new releases. I will still be reviewing movies, but I’m reserving those for the TikTok page.   This week I report on AMC’s massive lay-offs, the announcement of They Listen starring Jon Cho, and the Soska Sisters turning American Mary into a series.

S3E3: Scream Stream Returns

This week I take a look at a film recommended to me by one of my Twitch viewers. If you've seen Martyrs, then you may have an idea of how this review is going to go. I also talk about a horror game I've been streaming on Twitch called, "The Dark Occult."

S3E2: Incident in a Ghostland

Welcome season three of Scream Stream. It has been a while since we last spoke and I'm happy to be in your ear holes once again. This week I'm reviewing the new Netflix arrival, In the Tall Grass based on the novella by Stephen King and Joe Hill.

S3E001: In the Tall Grass

With the Pet Sematary remake being touted as the scariest film of 2019, I decided to revisit the classic many of us remember. Just how well does the classic film from 1989 hold up?

S2E46: Pet Sematary (1989)

For this week's episode I cover a film that many compare to Call of Duty: WWII Zombies. It's not exactly like a video game, but is it a good movie?

S2E45: Overlord

This week I review a film that's been in my queue for a while. I initially thought this was a foreign film, but instead, it's a collaboration between East and West.

S2E44: Gehenna

This week I take a look at 2018's teen slasher, "Hell Fest."
