In five days, MTV’s Scream, which is a television series based on Kevin Williamson and Wes Craven’s horror film franchise, will make its debut. To drum up interest in their new scripted series, MTV has released the first 8 minutes. What starts as a YouTube video going viral, soon leads to problems for the teenagers of Lakewood and serves as the catalyst for a murder that opens up a window to the town’s troubled past.
