Where to watch Scream 6

Last year, the Scream franchise was awakened from its 11-year slumber with Scream, a reboot/sequel hybrid that saw the original three stars, — Neve Campbell, David Arquette, and Courtney Cox — return to help a new generation of teens from being sliced and diced by a new Ghostface. The movie was a surprise hit (Scream 4 had been a dud) and since franchises never die, a sequel was quickly commissioned with most of the reboot cast returning (Campbell declined due to an insulting monetary offer, while Arquette isn’t returning due to his character, Dewey, meeting an unfortunate end in the last one).

Released at the beginning of March, Scream 6 quickly proved to be a hit with critics and audiences alike, becoming the most successful Scream movie since the original all the way back in 1996. Now wrapping up its successful theatrical run, the sequel is set to hit streaming very soon. Where is it streaming? And when? Digital Trends has all the answers for you.

Is Scream 6 worth watching?

Yes! Like the not-so-great Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan, Scream VI takes place in New York City. The trailer showcases franchise fave Kirby (once again played by Hayden Panettiere) and good use of Big Apple staples (Ghostface stalks the subways!) as the movie does something different from previous installments.

The returning cast, headed by Wednesday star Jenna Ortega and featuring Courtney Cox, Hayden Panettiere, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Mason Gooding, Jack Champion, Josh Segarra, and Dermot Mulroney, make this sequel special, and the scares are truly unique and unlike anything else in the franchise.

Scream 6 is directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett. On Rotten Tomatoes, Scream 6 has a 77% on the Tomatometer and a 91% audience score.

The best Netflix original movies right now
The cast of Delicious.

Whenever Netflix heavily invests in an original movie like The Electric State -- which reportedly had a $320 million budget -- we'd like to be able to say that it was one of Netflix's best efforts. But it's not, and it doesn't belong on the best Netflix original movies right now.
Truthfully, our top pick for the month, Delicious, probably wouldn't have made it either if there were better alternatives. It's a thriller that's good enough, and it has a potentially star-making turn by Carla Díaz. Our other pick for the month is the documentary The Twister: Caught in the Storm. Between the two films, we suspect it will be the latter that stays with you.
You can find these films and the rest of the best Netflix original movies below.

If you don't find what you're looking for here, try our other lists of the best movies to stream this week, the best Netflix movies, the best Hulu original series, and the best Amazon Prime original movies.

The best sci-fi movies on Hulu right now
Sadie Sink in O'Dessa.

Sci-fi fans, is it fair for Hulu to take away all of the Alien and Predator movies for a few months and then trot them back out as if they're fresh additions to the library? Those films should have permanent places among the best sci-fi movies on Hulu, rather than seasonal passes.
Before we eventually readmit some of those films to this roundup, we're throwing the spotlight on a new arrival called O'Dessa, starring Sadie Sink, who was recently cast in the next Spider-Man film. Our other pick for the month is The Prestige, which does veer into science fiction territory in a uniquely entertaining way. You can find these films and the rest of the best sci-fi movies on Hulu below.
If you're curious about what's available in science fiction on other streaming services, we also have guides for the best sci-fi movies on Netflix, as well as the best sci-fi movies on Amazon Prime Video. For more options, check out guides for the best new movies to stream and the best movies on Hulu.

If you're looking for more films to watch, remember that Hulu is part of the Disney Bundle. That includes the basic Hulu subscription (with ads), Disney+, and ESPN+, all for just $17 a month. That's a great deal, and you don't even have to travel to the future for it.
