Scream 6's score on Rotten Tomatoes is the strongest the entire Ghostface franchise has seen since the release of Wes Craven's Scream 2 in 1997.
Scream 6 has received the best Rotten Tomatoes score for the franchise since the early days in the late 1990s. The film, which is a direct follow-up to the fifth film, 2022's Scream, tracks the story of the core four survivors of the previous film, formerly estranged sister Sam and Tara Carpenter and twins Chad and Mindy Meeks-Martin .
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The Rotten Tomatoes score for the buzzy Scream 6 has been released, revealing that the film is standing solid at a Fresh 77 percent. While there will still be some more reviews coming in over the weekend that change the score slightly, at the time of writing there are already 106 reviews compiled so there likely won't be much movement in either direction.
Even if none of these films have reached the height of critical darling status as classic like Halloween or The Exorcist, it is a rare horror franchise in two major ways. The proportion of Fresh entries vs Rotten entries, for one, is astounding. Many long-running slasher franchises have many more Rotten films than not, like Halloween , Friday the 13th or A Nightmare on Elm Street .
Scream 6 also holds the rare distinction of a sixth entry in a franchise not only being fresh but having a competitive score with the original film and its first sequel. Most horror franchises that last long enough to reach six entries, including the likes of Paranormal Activity, The Amityville Horror, and The Conjuring, have their sixth entries ranked much closer to the bottom than the top.
