There are few horror franchises more influential than the Scream series, and the newly released Scream VI should only keep that legacy going.
First launched in 1996 with the excellent Scream, the meta-comedy slasher franchise from horror master Wes Craven broke box-office records and spawned a host of imitators, very few of which could get even close to Scream’s electric mix of slasher thrills and actually funny self-aware genre commentary.
In the decades since, four more Scream movies have been made, each offering their own take on the state of the horror genre, and operating as time capsules for their respective eras of horror. Wes Craven directed the first four movies in the series; after his death, direction duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett took over for 2022’s Scream and the upcoming Scream VI. The new one shakes things up by bringing Ghostface to New York City and coming for the fans.
You may be looking to catch up on the Scream movies before Scream VI, or revisiting all of them again now that Scream VI is available to watch at home. It’s a good idea, as almost all of them are an extremely good time. Here’s where you can watch every Scream movie at home right now, in order of release.

In the closing sequence, it's revealed that the killer is not just one person, but two people: her boyfriend Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) and his best friend Stu (Matthew Lillard).
Scream 6 introduced five killers, the most in any Scream film, who were not working together. Their identities were revealed early on, breaking convention. Detective Bailey, Quinn Bailey, and Ethan Landry were revealed as the killers at the end of Scream 6. Their motive was revenge for Detective Bailey's son's death.
The series consists of six films: Scream (1996), Scream 2 (1997), Scream 3 (2000), Scream 4 (2011), Scream (2022), and Scream VI (2023). The first four films were directed by Wes Craven and scored by Marco Beltrami.
Scream: The True Story (2022), directed by Alistair LeGrand, is a documentary that examines the horrifying life of serial killer Danny Rolling, often known as The Gainesville Ripper.
Will Scream 6 be on Netflix? While Scream movies have been available to stream on Netflix in the past (you can currently stream the first Scream film on the platform), it's unlikely that Scream 6 will be added to Netflix.
