Scream 4 (2011)

For the season 2 finale of Aughtsterion, Sam and Jordan are
getting you emotionally ready for the arrival of fifth Scream
with its lately reappraised precursor, Scream 4. Your co-hosts
are covering the finely aged qualities of Wes Craven's final film
— including the triple cold open and Jill's proclamation that she
doesn't need FRIENDS she needs FANS — as well as some of those
crucial wiffs, like when the movie tried to tell us in 2011 that
gay rights had been achieved in horror. But that also leads to
the this episode's biggest theme: What was the state of queer
horror at the start of the 2010s, what was Scream 4's place
in it, and what is the legacy of this title that took 10 years to
get its just reconsideration? Sam and Jordan are here to address
all these questions, and also to say: CLEAR!
