It’s time for an all-new episode of The Flickcast! And it’s a special one. It’s our 300th episode.! We know, right?

On this week’s show Chris and Joe don’t really do anything special to commemorate the 300th episode, but they do discuss all sorts of new and recurring topics. Some of these topics include Fear the Walking Dead, The Last Ship, Mr. Robot, the upcoming Shannara Chronicles, Netflix and Hulu, Strike Back and the tragic death of director and horror icon Wes Craven. There’s also the usual more.

Picks this week include Chris’ pick of the Wes Craven classic Scream and Joe’s pick of the novel The Martian, soon to be a major motion picture.

Just when you thought it was safe to answer the phone again, Wes Craven and Kevin Williams (sort of) reunite to bring a whole new generation of teen victims some classic murders and rules to live by with Scream 4.

Just about everyone is back for this final scare, including Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette. Along with the legacy survivors, there are some great new additions this time, including Kristen Bell, Hayden Panettiere, Alison Brie, and Anna Paquin.

This time around you can expect more gore, more deaths, and more “teenage” girls running for their lives. We’ve got a taste of what you can expect in the film this weekend with four brand new clips.

Check out those clips after the jump, and be sure to race to theaters and support horror with Scream 4 in theaters this Friday.

You may find this hard to believe but I’m actually looking forward to Scream 4. Sure, you could make the case that the franchise has seen better days or that the actors are not all that appealing anymore, but that doesn’t dampen my enthusiasm for the franchise.

To help you find the magic again we’ve got three new clips from the film to share with you today. In them we get a further look at the old gang from Westboro as well as at a few of the new, fresh faces voted most likely to be targets for our favorite ghost-faced killer.

If you’re not familiar with the Scream 4 story, here’s the scoop:

Sidney Prescott has been living the last few years of her life in relative silence. Now a guidance counselor for Woodsboro High School, her alma mater, she finally lives her life out of the media spotlight.

But with the discovery of a murdered student, Sidney Prescott’s world will once again be ripped apart by the reemergence of Ghost Face.

Check out the clips after the break. Scream 4 slashes its way into theaters on April 15th.

For the most part, sequels past 3 are rarely any good, let alone big name theatrical releases with an ensemble cast. Especially those films that fall into the “horror” or “slasher” genre. This time, things look to be different, as just about everyone (alive) is coming back for Scream 4.

Even original writer and director Kevin Williamson and Wes Craven are returning to revisit this franchise 10 years later. From what we can tell this far into production, the reasoning is to revamp the franchise for the brand new generation of tweeting, texting, and underage drinking teens. Here’s the plot rundown.

SIDNEY PRESCOTT has been living the last few years of her life in relative silence. Now a guidance counselor for Woodsboro High School, her alma mater, she finally lives her life out of the media spotlight.

But with the discovery of a murdered student, Sidney Prescott’s world will once again be ripped apart by the reemergence of Ghost Face.

We got a less-than revealing teaser a few months back, but now we’re finally getting the goods, and plenty of Hayden Panettiere as the new ditzy blond (who very well could be the new Ghost Face).

Check out the full trailer after the jump, and catch Scream 4 in theaters April 15th.

Horror master Wes Craven is back with another scary film called My Soul To Take. Although some of here are not big fans of 3D, we will still give due respect to the man responsible for the original Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream and so many other great horror films.

Craven knows his way around the horror genre and with this new film he’s telling a new story in a new way. To illustrate that, we’ve got a clip from the film to share with you today that’s almost two minutes long.

To set it up, this film concerns a serial killer who swore he would return to murder the seven children born the night he died. Now, 16 years later, people are disappearing again.

Has the psychopath been reincarnated as one of the seven teens, or did he survive the night he was left for dead? Only one of the kids knows the answer — and you might also from this clip.

Click through to check out the scene after the jump. My Soul to Take, which features Max Thieriot, Denzel Whitaker, Zena Grey and Emily Meade, hits theaters tomorrow.
