Hey, I am all about cinematic experiences for the neurodivergent, but at some point someone really needs to draw the line. WTF is this?

It's the seventh movie in the series, and they're all named after a loud, sudden, scary noise.

Seems like something that would have done for a movie like Tenet. Perhaps this one goes overboard with the jump scare sound mixing?

Aren't "sensory friendly screenings" just the regular movie, but with certain accommodations for people with autism like lowered volume, lights not fully dimmed, outside food allowed, etc.?
I think they've usually been done for childrens' films, though, and not R-rated horror films.
Though I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't adults and teenagers on the spectrum who are horror fans, so maybe this is for them...

typically it's a no on food, but the lights are up somewhat the audio isn't as loud.

Scream 7 theater merch. I’m going to Harkins. I might get the merch there.
Also, if you see the Fan screening Thursday night, you’ll get the free mini poster

Oof... I'd considered going to the early screening at Cinemark tonight, but tickets are $16 (almost sold out) and the weather here is as awful as that critic score. 
I've got an out-of-town appointment tomorrow and I'll be passing a small theater that has $6 matinee tickets. Guess I'll leave early and catch the 10:30 AM showing there. Even if it's terrible, I don't want to have the killer reveal spoiled by some YouTube thumbnail or clickbait headline.
No Harkins in my state, but I just found out Marcus (my nearest theater) also had those talking dolls. Called when they opened this morning and was told they only received four of them (really, Paramount?) and they sold out immediately at the fan event Thursday night.
Didn't really need it for my collection, but I would have picked one up at regular price just for the novelty of it being branded "SCREAM 7" on the hangtag and not just "GHOSTFACE" like most of the merch that's licensed from Fun World (the rights holder of the costume). Scalpers are already listing them for triple the price on eBay.

This scored the franchise's highest opening (it ranks third behind Scream 2 & 3 adjusted for inflation) at $64.1M domestic and $97.2M worldwide.

Quote from Gary Barber, CEO of Spyglass:
This is the same Gary Barber who was fine with losing Campbell over a lowball offer last time, only to woo her back (she scored a reported $7M salary and an executive producer credit) after he dismissed Melissa Barrera. I'll never forget the "studio insider" comment after Jenna Ortega passed on the movie: “He (Barber) didn’t need Neve, he doesn’t need Jenna.”

Quote from Gary Barber, CEO of Spyglass:
“This historic, franchise record-breaking box office performance is a testament to the enduring legacy created by our director Kevin Williamson 30 years ago, led by the incomparable Neve Campbell, breakout star Isabel May, legacy stalwart Courteney Cox and the entire cast.
