As a child in the era there Fear Street Books were as widespread as Calvin & Hobbes Collections at the Book Fair, when he saw Netflix release his 2021 trilogy of scary adjustments, made my dark heart melt. Goes in 2025 film schedulethat flame reigned when Fear Street: Prom Queen’s announcement promised a new post for a May debut.
So after finally seeing the trailer, I think the latest Slasher -Throwbacken looks to die for; While worried about how the series could potentially advance. And no, I’m not talking about how according to that time stamp on the trailer this prom would be held on a very Manic Monday.
Fear Street: Prom Queen’s Easter Egg invokes the Spirit of Fear Street: Part 2 – 1978
Oooh baby, me do know what it is worth having another Fear Street Girl on earth. Director/co -author Matt Palmer looks to have designed a worthy follow -up of Leigh Janiak’s previous Fear Street trilogy, Full of your suitable fashion and needles. But of course this is Shadows We are dealing with; And the historical curse that holds the city in its grip is still much in force.
It leads to a moment that both satisfied and touched me, because we see a quick glimpse of the camp Nightwing wall painting as you see the picture above. While we know what Fear Street: Part 2 – 1978’s final Significant to overall history, to see the effect that these events have on the city’s youth for a decade really sounds like a fun idea. But this piece of continuity makes me think about the future – which gives me a very specific ax to grind.
I hope the Future Fear Street payments do not go past standalone stories just for connective tissue
Continuity is something I will always evaluate in an extended universe that Fear Streetas it allows me to use my Netflix subscription To visit the impressive gore whenever I want. At the same time, when looking back at author RL Stine’s anthology series, I have longed for independent stories in this universe.
Yes, I loved the trilogibes who would show up on a recurring basis; which is part of why i will do it Never Shut up on how Cataluna chronicle deserves the same thing Film fitting treatment Prom Queen goat. But at the same time disposable-one-offs like this post from 1992, as well as dozens of others who Double play and Wrong numberEverything was there as isolated stories in the Shadyside universe.
While “The Curse of Shadyside” may still be present in these stories, and maybe even influence some of them, I really hope that Fear Street Movies will be branched past Slasrare which is simply based on Lore in that curse. Sometimes your Maniac murderer is a jilted lover who wants you to yourself; and not a person obsessed with an ancient evil.
And before anyone thinks i get my hopes here, rl stine is allowed in one Thr Interview back in January that there are three new films that are developing. So if Fear Street: Prom QueenMay 23 Release is crowned as a sharp success, we can get this conversation again.
