The third annual televised event tapes on Saturday, October 18 at The Greek Theater in Los Angeles, CA and premieres Tuesday, October 21 (9:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on Spike TV.

With such films to his credit as "Beetlejuice," "Edward Scissorhands," "The Nightmare Before Christmas" and "Sweeney Todd," Tim Burton has contributed more to the genres of fantasy, sci-fi and horror than any other filmmaker of his generation. Burton is a rare filmmaker who has successfully crossed these genres and Spike TV is thrilled to honor him with the 2008 SCREAM Immortal Award.

Wes Craven, the genius behind "The Hills Have Eyes," "Swamp Thing," the "SCREAM" franchise and "The Nightmare on Elm Street," will be presented with this year's SCREAM Mastermind Award.
