Netflix UK has secured the exclusive streaming rights to MTV’s horror series Scream, with a premiere set for October. Inspired by the iconic film franchise, the series reinvents the slasher formula for a new generation.
The show follows a group of high school students in the fictional town of Lakewood as they become the targets of a masked killer. The narrative mixes suspenseful murder mystery with teen drama and digital-age anxiety.
Featuring a fresh cast, Scream maintains the spirit of the films while introducing new twists and a serialized format. Netflix’s acquisition ensures that UK viewers can watch the entire season on-demand without delay.
With its October release, the series is poised to attract horror fans in the lead-up to Halloween, delivering scares and surprises in every episode.
