Welcome back to Fright School! We catch up on the week! Joshua caught Fortune Feimster's live show in San Diego. Joshua and Joe both checked out THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH. We discuss the tendency towards pretentiousness with Shakespeare and some of our favorite adaptations of the plays. This week we wrap up the original SCREAM Trilogy with an attempt to make sense of SCREAM 3. We discuss horror in the wake of the Columbine Massacre, the ongoing conversation of violence in the media and its dubious effects on real world events, and recontextualizing SCREAM 3 in light of the #MeToo movement and Harvey Weinstein scandal. Also, Gale's bangs.
