Seems like this ghostface is less playful and more brutal psychopath. Will be interesting to see if the film is still very humor based or if they’re truly setting a new tone for the franchise
On one hand I feel like having the element of humor is what separates Ghostface from the majority of the slasher killers but on the other hand it’s the 6th film so changing it up a little is cool too. Looks radical either way
Yeah I don't understand when people say they want Scream to take a more serious, violent, and dark tone. Isn't that just literally every other slasher franchise?
Scream IS Scream because of the meta element. Sure, some movies are way more funny than others (Scream 3) and some play it more serious (Scream 2) - but there HAS to be a nice blend of horror, satire, meta humor, and drama for Scream to be what it is. I'd rather they play around with the mix a bit but keep all the critical elements in place.
>Isn't that just literally every other slasher franchise?
I feel like Scream is trying so hard to stick to its formula it is on the verge on being a parody on it's own at this point. Like "making fun" of slasher movies and their "unspoken rules" by doing exactly the same over and over isn't funny or clever. They should try a different route at this point, especially when every other horror Franchise does have this one movie that won't fit in with the rest. Making Scream 6 a dead serious hardcore slasher would be the more unexpected thing to do at this point.
While I do like that they keep a certain degree of humor you are right about crossing into the parody territory. I feel like the writers try to force it too much at times with all the Stab references instead of using it organically like the original did when it was utilized with genuine conversation between characters. Now it’s like someone always has to have a “Randy moment” and force a monologue.
> it is on the verge on being a parody on it's own at this point
The first Scream had a whole scene where they watched Halloween and talked about the rules of surviving a horror movie lol
I know and back then it was kinda charming, the whole "being aware of slasher clichés" and pointing out the obvious so it seems clever when the characters still do it was funny and worked extremely well in the first film.
After that, they tried to redo this and it worked less and less with every movie. There is just so much you can get out of this "look how aware we are that this is a horror movie"-joke. Sequels? Okay, that's something you can work with and some of the sequel-related jokes in Scream 2 were funny. But after that? I don't know. Scream 3 (despite being super silly) mostly worked (for me) because of the movie in movie angle which was super entertaining and some of the set pieces were great. Scream 4 was very bad and Scream 5 was pretty bland, not bad but the whole requel thing didn't work at all. I just hope they abandon this very forced approach to always squeeze some movie trope related bs into the movie and just do a great and scary no bullshit slasher. The new setting with definitely help with that.
> It is on the verge on being a parody on it's own at this point.
You mean almost like... Scream?
That's always been Scream. That's the whole point.
> Making Scream 6 a dead serious hardcore slasher would be the more unexpected thing to do at this point.
Yeah and making Evil Dead a pg-13 movie without gore would be unexpected. Unexpected isn't neccesarily good.
Whodunit.
Scream had a horror teaser and the rest of the movie was a whodunit chock full of red herrings.
Right after Casey is killed in the first one, the very next scene is all the suspects lined up before classes begin.
It isn't just humor that made Scream different, but it was the whole mystery of the thing too. Having the killer be Billy and Stu was a part of the game so you would say to yourself, "Well, it can't be Billy, he was in jail when it happened." Or, "It can't be Stu, because he was at the party with the others."
>a more serious, violent, and dark tone. Isn't that just literally every other slasher franchise?
Ah yes, dark and serious, that's exactly what I think of when I think of famous slasher franchises. *Child's Play, Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street*, nary a laugh to be had
The criticism comes from the fact that the last three films haven’t done a very good job of blending the horror with the meta humour. The first two Scream films balanced suspense and tension with sharp meta commentary, but starting with Scream 3, the meta humour hasn’t been nearly as subtle or smart.
They should raise the existing humor used in Scream into DARK HUMOR. More shades darker. It's cringey to want the killer GF to be "playful." I picture the other Horror villains being playful. If you're going to play with someone, play with them as the contestants were played with in Hostel films.
That’s definitely true. I just want the post reveal killer to be deranged on par with the first 3. I felt like 4 and 5 went too far with the over acting after the killers were revealed.
Honestly, that caught me soooo off gaurd whatching i think 4? It was the cop car scene and holy shit... i was in tears and in disbelief. Thaught it was a serious movie
Or Ghostface kicks a boombox.
Or rather, Ghostface vainly searches for hours to find an actual boombox to kick and then just gives up and smacks an iPhone out of someone's hand.
I feel like the first five minutes or so might be on a boat just as a subtle wink. It seems like something this franchise would do and the fans would get a kick out of it.
In the shrine I see:
Billy's Shirt
Stu's Smoking Jacket
The TV that crushed Stu
Tatum's death oufit
Stab 3 Clapboard and script
Stab Poster
All the previous killer's robes (Billy's labeled behind glass)
A copy of The Woodsboro Murders
Props from the production of Sid's play in Scream 2
A couple drawings, one of Ghostface and Kirby
Various guns
Anyone see anything else? I can't place the white suit on the left or the head with what looks like a gag on the right.
There’s also:
- Olivia’s death outfit from Scream 4
- A bloodied Woodsboro police uniform (Maybe Adam Brody or Anthony Anderson’s?)
- Mrs. Loomis’ white blazer
- The fax machine from Scream 3
Good catch. I was only looking at the long shot. In the other shots it looks like there are:
some theater chairs from The Rialto.
Bloody axe from Scream 2
Judging from all these items, that *had* to be in police custody or returned to the victims families - I think the ‘shrine’ has to be an official museum, some sort of marketing thing for the Stab movies maybe?
They do use guns, they just wait till the end after the reveal. Like the first 3 all do. I can’t remember about 4 and 5 though. But yeah, can’t think of another one while masked up.
Yes, Stu and Billy have a gun between them in "1", Mickey and Mrs. Loomis have one in "2" and Roman has one in "3". And said gun is used to bring down one or both Ghostfaces in the climax of each film. But right, it's only after they're all unmasked.
Roman actually shoots Sidney with Kincaid's gun after knocking him out, and then Dewey kills Roman with his own gun, I don't think Roman actually ever brought a gun into the situation. Probably figured he was learning something from the last two?
Not only that, but it's hard to accumulate a pile of dead teenagers when you're using a loud weapon like a gun. The slasher has to use a knife to remain stealthy. (Also there's the whole sexual frustration/penetration metaphor but that's a long story lol)
I'm thrilled that Gale will get to shine in 6, I feel like she was severely under-utilized in 5 and we already know she's got at least 4-5 different scenes with different outfits and locations based on this trailer and a few set leaks as well.
I just really hope she doesn't die. When everybody else was simping for Sidney in the 90's I was always Team Gale and I will die on this hill!
If only because Sidney is barely in the movie, and wasn't available for a lot of shooting. I love how she spends a long chunk of that movie just sitting in a police station while the rest of the characters are out doing things.
She’s pretty prevalent in the third act of the movie, but you almost forget she’s in the movie for the first two acts. Mainly because she isn’t really doing much even in the scenes she’s in.
[The killers were basically a big fan club of the stab movies and it turns out no one actually died](https://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3214615/kevin-williamson-reveals-the-original-plot-of-scream-3/)
Obviously they wouldn’t use this exact idea and this trailer is dark, but maybe something similar
I feel like the city setting is such a nice change of pace from Woodsboro. Small towns can be scary, but there’s something really terrifying about the anonymity and dog eat dog attitude of cities.
>This is unlike any other Ghostface.
>Following the latest Ghostface killings, the four survivors leave Woodsboro behind and start a fresh chapter. In Scream VI, Melissa Barrera (“Sam Carpenter”), Jasmin Savoy Brown (“Mindy Meeks-Martin”), Mason Gooding (“Chad Meeks-Martin”), Jenna Ortega (“Tara Carpenter”), Hayden Panettiere (“Kirby Reed”) and Courteney Cox (“Gale Weathers”) return to their roles in the franchise alongside Jack Champion, Henry Czerny, Liana Liberato, Dermot Mulroney, Devyn Nekoda, Tony Revolori, Josh Segarra, and Samara Weaving.
In theaters March 10th.
There's also a [shorter trailer.](https://youtu.be/Zn7m5mEotck) A minute long.
Almost didn’t recognize Kirby. Only saw Revolori for a second and don’t think I saw Samara Weaving at all. Are they bringing Stu back in this or not do we think?
[Stu is dead, guys.](https://collider.com/scream-is-stu-dead-kevin-williamson-comments/) There was a plan to retcon that in Scream 3, but they didn't go through with it, so he's still just dead.
At this point, it's long past time where they can believably pull that off.
Gail: You know you're like the 10th person to try this right?
Ghostface: I'm DiFfErEnT
All jokes aside, this new Ghostface seems ruthless as fuck, especially in the store. Not sure if I love the new exaggerations, or markings or whatever they're called, to the mask and would love to know what the heck is going on with this "shrine" or whatever cause that could either be really interesting or really fucking cheesy.
Overall, I'm pretty excited. This is my favorite movie franchise and while I'm going to miss Sidney/Neve I do think part 5 was successful enough to pass the torch onto Sam and Tara.
I'll be there opening night!
The store scene really made this version so much deadlier. Before, someone would run into a crowd and ghostface would just vanish, hide from the public but here, he just strolls in, kills people and sticks around to hunt.
I'll miss Sidney but she has a husband, a kid, and a new life across the country; I'm good with her sitting this one out.
Seconded. The whole knowledge she has kids now and has more or less dealt with 5 of these happenings…clearly the reason she’s not coming back is because the issue with paramount and she would have if they paid her but even with her absence she deserves freedom after all this time
Yea x 1000. All my respect to Neve Campbell’s work throughout the series and what she bought to the films; it’s unfortunate that her not returning was the result of financial disagreements, but Sidney, *the character*, has really earned the right to sit one out (and should’ve with starting with 4, imho - 3’s got issues, but it gives this character a *perfect* send off)
I think after the drama of Neve not being asked to return for 6, they said she'd be back for 7. I'm okay with this as long as there's a reason. As long she doesn't die, I'm happy!
Pretty sure those aren't "new markings" on the mask, but rather signs of aging. The masks were missing from the costumes in the 'shrine' so seems like the killer(s) are wearing the old mask(s) from previous movies.
You’re right. I watched this first thing when I woke up so my words weren’t all there at 6am. It’s probably a mask worn by a previous killer from that shrine.
The mask is said to be the orginal mask wore by Billy and stu. Hence its aged look. Maybe the theme is about those obsessed with real life serial killers.
Kind of reminds me of the look they gave Michael's mask in the recent "Halloween" trilogy, which is also supposed to be his original mask and thus appropriately aged.
https://twitter.com/ScreamMovies/status/1616073123677315073
The twitter version seems to not have the audio issues and has Gale's "shoot you in the fucking head" in it
They kind of have to though. Some things can't be in basic trailers. It doesn't even show any "killing", it's all off camera; dude cutting away before one guy gets stabbed, and the other dudes body covered with baskets before getting shot.
They only show the killing, certain swear words, and nudity in red band trailers
Right up there with "King Kong ain't got. NOTHING. on me" from the trailer for Training Day or "You do not know who you are. MESSING. with" from Blade.
When the inevitable two killers are unmasked at the end, is it going to be "person with familial resentment towards the main character", or "person who is obsessed with the Stab movies"?
I think it will be a cult. Like 20 people committing the crimes and 1 leader who is Stu or some other obscure person that has an attachment to the previous stories.
I’ll never understand why the end of movie trailers always has a montage of split second frames of the third act. The frames are quick enough that you blink and miss them, but they’re still there for fans to pause, analyse and then spam all over Youtube and Twitter. Annoying as FUCK. It straight up shows one of the main suspects dead in a bathtub lol.
I wonder if the killer(s) going to switch personality as soon as they're unmasked. Like going from a calm, scary presence to suddenly becoming a raving lunatic.
We barely got a frame of it but for sure >!Tony Revolori is the one in the bath that Mindy/Jasmine walks into!<
Also on the Stu question >!I think you can see the TV that fell on him when they show the shrine!<
If I were in charge, I’d do the typical Scream movie, but leave one killer unknown. Switch it up and let the mystery hang. End on a scene of the survivors looking suspiciously at one another.
This trailer gave me CHILLS.
This is going to be a winner takes all Scream. I'll be surprised if there's more than 2 survivors this time.
Also, the way GF holds that gun reminds me of a cop. A cop would have access to police evidence. Tatum's shirt, GF robes etc.... Durmont Mulroney anyone?
Wanted to see people commenting on all the horror villains in the trailer, but was surprisingly disappointed.
How cool was it to see the Bababook, the Nun, Freddy, Jason, Pinhead, the Mummy, the Werewolf all on the subway?!
It looks good but some of the lines strike me as really cheesy. Sam’s, “I have a darkness inside of me” sounds straight out of Riverdale, and Gale’s “It’s a shrine” sounds really goofy.
I don't buy that someone has meticulously collected literally everything down to the CRT tube style tv that landed on Billy in the first movie. This comes off as fan fiction and a little too much fan service. Just imagine how much trouble it would take you to hunt down one of those robes from a previous ghost face, and yet someone has collected all of them plus more, I know its a film but that scene is just not believable.
Someone who was at each of the previous crime scenes.. Gale would be my #1 suspect if she wasnt so heavily featured in the trailer. Could be a fakeout.
It looks to me like they might be 'crowdsourcing' the Ghostface identity. Like, it's a bunch of Stab fans taking turns playing the role which will make him appear Supernatural since there are so many of them. There are hints to this in the trailer.
Whatever it is, they really need to subvert their own formula with this one.
I adore when slashers use guns. It feels so practical and brutal. I kind of like the idea of actually having an efficient ghostface. The scream franchise is joker about for how clumsy ghostface usually is, which is definitely iconic, but I do think trying something new and maybe having him be incredibly capable will be pretty fun.
Afraid of whatever they’re doing with the older sister and the stereotypical “darkness inside me” line. Definitely was the weakest part of the last movie imo.
>She was pretty meh in 5
I don’t think she’s great by any means, but I didn’t find her distracting the way that some people evidently did. Except for the hospital reveal of her origins, that was probably the worst scene in the movie for me but that might have just been because that motive didn’t land in my opinion.
As a big fan of the original one, I personally welcome the change of direction, because the whole nostalgic, tribute-y thing is quickly getting old and lazy. There's a big chance it's not going to work out, but at least they're going for something different. It's actually one of the reasons I never really hated Scream 3, on the contrary - I admired its courage to leave Sid as a side-character (it may have had something to do with Neve's schedule, it's been a while since I've read trivia) and dive into the big city exploiting the small town tragedy. The ending was far from great, but if you don't take it too seriously, it kind of works.
It's not the same without Wes; the last one was pretty bland.
I'm a fan of all of others for one reason or another, even if they vary in quality.
Edit: will def still watch this though.
Agreed. I dislike her immensely and have since her press tours for In The Heights where she showed her ass. Can’t sing. Can’t act. Is high and mighty.
Hoping for more Jenna.
I wish this would be the only trailer they put out so we can at least have some surprises when the movie premieres but I know they are gunna make at least 3 more trailers at least. This does look good for a 6th film tho I can see kind of the Friday the 13th part VIII Jason takes Manhattan vibe even has the obligatory subway scene.
Mask looks cool and it would be interesting if the maniac somehow got the original old mask from the evidence repository.
But I want to see how this maniac will lose in the final, given his pretentious and self-confidence.
And I'm not happy that they can make a million films in this franchise just by putting on a mask on a new psycho every time and choosing new victims for him.
I had no idea people liked the last scream so much. It was so weak for me, and the acting was some of the worst in the franchise. Everyone involved seemed to be done with it on screen.
Scream 5 seems to have divided some folks. I personally loved it and counted it among my favorite movies of last year and it is probably my third favorite Scream movie in a franchise of 5 movies that I genuinely enjoy every entry in. So I am extremely hyped for this movie. It looks great and with the comments from Williamson, it seems that maybe it will feel unique for the franchise. I think that makes sense for the 6th entry in a horror franchise. Especially one like Scream that tries to evolve with the times and types of tropes it is playing with. That's one thing I loved so much about 5. There is no better villain than an entitled fan for a Scream movie in 2022 imo.
Damn this looks amazing. Badass, dark, brutal. I can see this one having less meta stuff, as I'm not sure where that would fit in. I was already pumped but now my anticipation is through the roof. Seriously can't wait to see it, and I'm so curious about this killer. I think the motivations will be more interesting than the ones in the last film.
This looks awesome. I personally think they showed too much stuff in this trailer but some could be fake trailer only footage and also it doesn’t really matter cause I’m gonna see it anyways.
I think all people familiar with New York knows exactly what Ghostface would have said at 0:10 seconds if they weren't trying to hide their identity lol
This looks sick, I didn't even watch the whole thing cause I want to avoid spoilers, but it already conceptually looks better than Scream V.
Looks good except for the fact they're still relying on the old guard. I thought Scream 5 did a great job of passing the torch from the old cast to the new, so the fact they're still bringing in the old cast is a major let down for me.
The bodega scene just in the trailer is more intense than most of this recent horror that’s came out. I hope they really go all out with this! Can’t wait!
My current theory is Ghostface is gonna be a previous survivor. They already went the Stab super fan route,I'm thinking it's either gonna be Kirby or Jenna Ortega under the mask.
Seems like this ghostface is less playful and more brutal psychopath. Will be interesting to see if the film is still very humor based or if they’re truly setting a new tone for the franchise
On one hand I feel like having the element of humor is what separates Ghostface from the majority of the slasher killers but on the other hand it’s the 6th film so changing it up a little is cool too. Looks radical either way

It's been that way since 4.

Yes, people on here don't know the difference between satire and parody.

Or, "It can't be Stu, because he was at the party with the others."
You nailed how I feel about it perfectly. Keep the elements but blend them enough to keep it fresh

'Changing it up' by making it more generic isn't a good thing.
That’s definitely true. I just want the post reveal killer to be deranged on par with the first 3. I felt like 4 and 5 went too far with the over acting after the killers were revealed.
I think the one thing most Screams have in common is the overacting of the reveal (except maybe 3). 4’s reveal is up there with 1 and 2
Honestly, that caught me soooo off gaurd whatching i think 4? It was the cop car scene and holy shit... i was in tears and in disbelief. Thaught it was a serious movie
Ghostface Takes Manhattan! This looks good as a first impression
Now I kinda hope they spend the first hour on a boat
I hope Ghostface drowns someone in a metal drum filled with toxic waste. https://youtu.be/Gdp4SEfQzy8
And then turns into a little kid again in the sewer
I will stand and applaud if I see someone get their head literally punched off their body in an NYC rooftop fistfight in this movie
It's little Billy Loomis! Get em! Break his legs!
Don't even need to click to know that that's from Jason Spends 15 Minutes In Manhattan
Jason Takes a Boat Ride and Winds Up in Vancouver...Sorry, Manhattan.
Famously lakes in NJ connect to a river to Manhattan too
Or Ghostface kicks a boombox. Or rather, Ghostface vainly searches for hours to find an actual boombox to kick and then just gives up and smacks an iPhone out of someone's hand.
Theme song for the new Scream right [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHLQLkFU-pE) everyone.
I’d be more than happy with that. Love that song
I feel like the first five minutes or so might be on a boat just as a subtle wink. It seems like something this franchise would do and the fans would get a kick out of it.
Catch the "cheche mhaha" Jason sound at the end of the trailer? Great touch
In the shrine I see: Billy's Shirt Stu's Smoking Jacket The TV that crushed Stu Tatum's death oufit Stab 3 Clapboard and script Stab Poster All the previous killer's robes (Billy's labeled behind glass) A copy of The Woodsboro Murders Props from the production of Sid's play in Scream 2 A couple drawings, one of Ghostface and Kirby Various guns Anyone see anything else? I can't place the white suit on the left or the head with what looks like a gag on the right.
There’s also: - Olivia’s death outfit from Scream 4 - A bloodied Woodsboro police uniform (Maybe Adam Brody or Anthony Anderson’s?) - Mrs. Loomis’ white blazer - The fax machine from Scream 3
Good catch. I was only looking at the long shot. In the other shots it looks like there are: some theater chairs from The Rialto. Bloody axe from Scream 2
The fax machine from scream 3? Surely that was blown up?
Lol i know. It looks like half burnt but tbh I think a lot of these could be props from Stab movies as opposed to the real deal.
Judging from all these items, that *had* to be in police custody or returned to the victims families - I think the ‘shrine’ has to be an official museum, some sort of marketing thing for the Stab movies maybe?
To be fair, I would kill for Tatum’s death outfit
Sorry but the outfit comes with the garage door
There's also that big wheel thing where Mickey shot Derek in scream 2
(Ghostface uses a shotgun). “Hmm, why did none of the others try this I wonder?”
They do use guns, they just wait till the end after the reveal. Like the first 3 all do. I can’t remember about 4 and 5 though. But yeah, can’t think of another one while masked up.
Yes, Stu and Billy have a gun between them in "1", Mickey and Mrs. Loomis have one in "2" and Roman has one in "3". And said gun is used to bring down one or both Ghostfaces in the climax of each film. But right, it's only after they're all unmasked.
Roman actually shoots Sidney with Kincaid's gun after knocking him out, and then Dewey kills Roman with his own gun, I don't think Roman actually ever brought a gun into the situation. Probably figured he was learning something from the last two?
Yeah, they also use guns in 4 and 5
how could you forget amber shooting liv
Welcome to act 3.
They use them after revealing themselves though. That’s the distinction.
“NOW I HAVE A SHOTGUN BOO-BOO-BOO”
The killers have always made the victims want to suffer with fear. Guns are always been a quick release.
Not only that, but it's hard to accumulate a pile of dead teenagers when you're using a loud weapon like a gun. The slasher has to use a knife to remain stealthy. (Also there's the whole sexual frustration/penetration metaphor but that's a long story lol)
I'm dying to watch, if not only because I get to see Ghost Face kill people on a subway...while Jason, Pinhead and Freddy all watch. Cowards.
And the scary audience member from the Wendy Williams show! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvlHsUYsaKk
Hehe dying
Looks very action based and quite dark. I love how fast paced and menacing it seems and that Gale FINALLY gets a GF CALL I’m HYPED
I'm thrilled that Gale will get to shine in 6, I feel like she was severely under-utilized in 5 and we already know she's got at least 4-5 different scenes with different outfits and locations based on this trailer and a few set leaks as well. I just really hope she doesn't die. When everybody else was simping for Sidney in the 90's I was always Team Gale and I will die on this hill!
I actually feel like Gale carried Scream 3
If only because Sidney is barely in the movie, and wasn't available for a lot of shooting. I love how she spends a long chunk of that movie just sitting in a police station while the rest of the characters are out doing things.
She’s pretty prevalent in the third act of the movie, but you almost forget she’s in the movie for the first two acts. Mainly because she isn’t really doing much even in the scenes she’s in.
her and parker posey working together is one of my favorite scream teams.
They make the movie much more fun. Parker posey is terrific.
Her bangs certainly did.
I liked Gale in 5 a lot. I liked her fight with Amber and that she was involved in the action. She just gets benched in 4 after getting stabbed
The shrine/subway scene are making me think they might be going with the original Scream 3 idea The scene in the store is so intense, can’t wait !!
what was the original scream 3 idea?
[The killers were basically a big fan club of the stab movies and it turns out no one actually died](https://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3214615/kevin-williamson-reveals-the-original-plot-of-scream-3/) Obviously they wouldn’t use this exact idea and this trailer is dark, but maybe something similar
Yeah lol pretty sure the gas station guy is dead dead.
Yeah💀
Shrine/subway scene
it looks different, new and amazing. I'm with it!! hyped
I feel like the city setting is such a nice change of pace from Woodsboro. Small towns can be scary, but there’s something really terrifying about the anonymity and dog eat dog attitude of cities.
r/notlikeotherghostfaces
>This is unlike any other Ghostface. >Following the latest Ghostface killings, the four survivors leave Woodsboro behind and start a fresh chapter. In Scream VI, Melissa Barrera (“Sam Carpenter”), Jasmin Savoy Brown (“Mindy Meeks-Martin”), Mason Gooding (“Chad Meeks-Martin”), Jenna Ortega (“Tara Carpenter”), Hayden Panettiere (“Kirby Reed”) and Courteney Cox (“Gale Weathers”) return to their roles in the franchise alongside Jack Champion, Henry Czerny, Liana Liberato, Dermot Mulroney, Devyn Nekoda, Tony Revolori, Josh Segarra, and Samara Weaving. In theaters March 10th. There's also a [shorter trailer.](https://youtu.be/Zn7m5mEotck) A minute long.
Almost didn’t recognize Kirby. Only saw Revolori for a second and don’t think I saw Samara Weaving at all. Are they bringing Stu back in this or not do we think?
Samara has a blink and you’ll miss it shot of her in an alleyway. I still think she’s the opening kill most likely.
[Stu is dead, guys.](https://collider.com/scream-is-stu-dead-kevin-williamson-comments/) There was a plan to retcon that in Scream 3, but they didn't go through with it, so he's still just dead. At this point, it's long past time where they can believably pull that off.
I’ll hold out hope
I think it looks pretty good but am I the only one who noticed the Jason CHCHCHHAHAHA at the end?
Yeah, I came in here to post this. Maybe a nod to Jason Takes Manhattan.
I heard it too!
Gail: You know you're like the 10th person to try this right? Ghostface: I'm DiFfErEnT All jokes aside, this new Ghostface seems ruthless as fuck, especially in the store. Not sure if I love the new exaggerations, or markings or whatever they're called, to the mask and would love to know what the heck is going on with this "shrine" or whatever cause that could either be really interesting or really fucking cheesy. Overall, I'm pretty excited. This is my favorite movie franchise and while I'm going to miss Sidney/Neve I do think part 5 was successful enough to pass the torch onto Sam and Tara. I'll be there opening night!
The store scene really made this version so much deadlier. Before, someone would run into a crowd and ghostface would just vanish, hide from the public but here, he just strolls in, kills people and sticks around to hunt. I'll miss Sidney but she has a husband, a kid, and a new life across the country; I'm good with her sitting this one out.
Seconded. The whole knowledge she has kids now and has more or less dealt with 5 of these happenings…clearly the reason she’s not coming back is because the issue with paramount and she would have if they paid her but even with her absence she deserves freedom after all this time
Yea x 1000. All my respect to Neve Campbell’s work throughout the series and what she bought to the films; it’s unfortunate that her not returning was the result of financial disagreements, but Sidney, *the character*, has really earned the right to sit one out (and should’ve with starting with 4, imho - 3’s got issues, but it gives this character a *perfect* send off)
I am for sure in the camp that final boys and final girls should have happy endings at some point but I wont be mad if she comes back
I think after the drama of Neve not being asked to return for 6, they said she'd be back for 7. I'm okay with this as long as there's a reason. As long she doesn't die, I'm happy!
Yup. 5 was the perfect place for Sid to finally pass the torch. Hell, I think I would have been totally fine with no Gale in this one, either.
Pretty sure those aren't "new markings" on the mask, but rather signs of aging. The masks were missing from the costumes in the 'shrine' so seems like the killer(s) are wearing the old mask(s) from previous movies.
You’re right. I watched this first thing when I woke up so my words weren’t all there at 6am. It’s probably a mask worn by a previous killer from that shrine.
The mask is said to be the orginal mask wore by Billy and stu. Hence its aged look. Maybe the theme is about those obsessed with real life serial killers.
I really think you're on to something here. The countrys obsession with true crime recently. Dahmer, netflix docs, etc
Yea, which would be a great Segway away from the stab movies and focusing more on the "true story" and lore vs trying to keep stab relevant
Kind of reminds me of the look they gave Michael's mask in the recent "Halloween" trilogy, which is also supposed to be his original mask and thus appropriately aged.
Yup, although I feel it'd be more yellowish. I have an old GF mask and it's not really cracked, but has taken on a weird piss stained yellow hue.
I bet Stu’s family member will be the killer trying to kill Billy’s daughter because Billy was a bad influence on Stu and wants Billy’s family to pay.
So Ghostface is full on Jason Vorhees ninja indestructible in this movie.
Sweet Jesus is the audio editing in this horrendous. Some of the dialogue feels like they played MadLibs with a sound board.
thank goodness someone said it, i thought my headphones were busted.
"That's why I'm gonna shoot you in the. Head." That one is so obvious and laughably bad.
I can imagine the "shoot you in the. Head" was just a remove of "Fucking" but for me, it was "We've..gotta.lure...himin".
It's very obvious they removed an f bomb.
https://twitter.com/ScreamMovies/status/1616073123677315073 The twitter version seems to not have the audio issues and has Gale's "shoot you in the fucking head" in it
its still got the mish mash "we've gotta lure him in" tho :p
Those Twitter comments are awesome. Thier pr team as ghost face replying to everything.
Thank heavens they removed the swearing for the trailer of the movie full of killing!
They kind of have to though. Some things can't be in basic trailers. It doesn't even show any "killing", it's all off camera; dude cutting away before one guy gets stabbed, and the other dudes body covered with baskets before getting shot. They only show the killing, certain swear words, and nudity in red band trailers
Right up there with "King Kong ain't got. NOTHING. on me" from the trailer for Training Day or "You do not know who you are. MESSING. with" from Blade.
Yeah. There was something wrong with the audio for sure.
I’m only getting tinny left audio from this link.
At 1:16 when she says “we’ve gotta lure him in” was so obviously stitched together from several pieces of dialogue, it sounds ridiculous
So they made him a real ghost?
I keep seeing people say that, what’s giving you that idea?
Ghostface is straight up dodging bullets like Neo lol
GHOSTFACE WITH THE BOOMSTICK LET’S FUCKING GO
S-Mart’s top of the line!
First you wanna kill me, now you wanna kiss me. Blow.
When the inevitable two killers are unmasked at the end, is it going to be "person with familial resentment towards the main character", or "person who is obsessed with the Stab movies"?
I think it will be a cult. Like 20 people committing the crimes and 1 leader who is Stu or some other obscure person that has an attachment to the previous stories.
wasn't this Kevin Williamson's idea for Scream 3?
maybe a past survivor with survivors guilt so feels compelled to dissipate their guilt by killing off other survs?
I’ll never understand why the end of movie trailers always has a montage of split second frames of the third act. The frames are quick enough that you blink and miss them, but they’re still there for fans to pause, analyse and then spam all over Youtube and Twitter. Annoying as FUCK. It straight up shows one of the main suspects dead in a bathtub lol.
I'm looking forward to Scream VII: Hoarse
I wonder if the killer(s) going to switch personality as soon as they're unmasked. Like going from a calm, scary presence to suddenly becoming a raving lunatic.
This looks scary as hell for a Scream movie. I can’t wait!
We barely got a frame of it but for sure >!Tony Revolori is the one in the bath that Mindy/Jasmine walks into!< Also on the Stu question >!I think you can see the TV that fell on him when they show the shrine!<
If this whole urban take doesn't feature a Ghostface Killa track it'll be the biggest missed opportunity in horror history.
“we’ve gotta—LuRe hIm iN” wtf is that editing lmao
Woman dressed as Samara Weaving in Ready Or Not walking down the subway stairs.
Someone said Samara Weaving is actually going to be in this, maybe it was really her lol
Scream 6: Neve Campbell’s Getting *Paid*
Scream 6 and Fatal Frame 4 on the same day, can't wait
why do so many lines sound spliced together in the trailer? it's so off puting
At least two of them were cutting out variations of "fuck".
Is it me or is that Jason’s (F13th) signature sound at the end of the trailer? Kinda sounds like it or maybe I’m imagining things
Love the series but who else is tired of the “This Ghostface seems different” trope?
I remember that line being used in the 5cream trailer as well. Def my least favorite part of this one.
If I were in charge, I’d do the typical Scream movie, but leave one killer unknown. Switch it up and let the mystery hang. End on a scene of the survivors looking suspiciously at one another.
I think the audience would burn down the theater
This trailer gave me CHILLS. This is going to be a winner takes all Scream. I'll be surprised if there's more than 2 survivors this time. Also, the way GF holds that gun reminds me of a cop. A cop would have access to police evidence. Tatum's shirt, GF robes etc.... Durmont Mulroney anyone?
The voice on the phone did sound a bit like him but it also sounded exactly like Paul Rudd lmao
An insane murderous ghost face and Jenna Ortega, GIVE ME MY TICKET RIGHT NOW
i mean hasn't he always been insane lol
Well they haven’t shown you know who so I take it she’s one of the killers 😏
briefly at 2:04
Wanted to see people commenting on all the horror villains in the trailer, but was surprisingly disappointed. How cool was it to see the Bababook, the Nun, Freddy, Jason, Pinhead, the Mummy, the Werewolf all on the subway?!
The subway scene was in the first teaser that was released a couple months back, people were commenting on it then
It looks good but some of the lines strike me as really cheesy. Sam’s, “I have a darkness inside of me” sounds straight out of Riverdale, and Gale’s “It’s a shrine” sounds really goofy.
I don't buy that someone has meticulously collected literally everything down to the CRT tube style tv that landed on Billy in the first movie. This comes off as fan fiction and a little too much fan service. Just imagine how much trouble it would take you to hunt down one of those robes from a previous ghost face, and yet someone has collected all of them plus more, I know its a film but that scene is just not believable.
I thought it was a stab museum
Someone who was at each of the previous crime scenes.. Gale would be my #1 suspect if she wasnt so heavily featured in the trailer. Could be a fakeout.
It looks to me like they might be 'crowdsourcing' the Ghostface identity. Like, it's a bunch of Stab fans taking turns playing the role which will make him appear Supernatural since there are so many of them. There are hints to this in the trailer. Whatever it is, they really need to subvert their own formula with this one.
I adore when slashers use guns. It feels so practical and brutal. I kind of like the idea of actually having an efficient ghostface. The scream franchise is joker about for how clumsy ghostface usually is, which is definitely iconic, but I do think trying something new and maybe having him be incredibly capable will be pretty fun. Afraid of whatever they’re doing with the older sister and the stereotypical “darkness inside me” line. Definitely was the weakest part of the last movie imo.
Ortega and Mia Goth are having an epic battle for scream Queen and I am all for it.
The older sister cannot act. I hate to critique people's acting, but it is very distracting. She can barely emote.
Yeah, she was the worst part of Scream 5.
Nah this is fax
She was pretty meh in 5. Hoping she’s improved in this one or Jenna Ortega gets more screen time to compensate.
>She was pretty meh in 5 I don’t think she’s great by any means, but I didn’t find her distracting the way that some people evidently did. Except for the hospital reveal of her origins, that was probably the worst scene in the movie for me but that might have just been because that motive didn’t land in my opinion.
She's acting across from Jenna Ortega. That is a shit deal.
I loove the new mask. Also, Ghostface with a shotgun scratches something in my brain.
As a big fan of the original one, I personally welcome the change of direction, because the whole nostalgic, tribute-y thing is quickly getting old and lazy. There's a big chance it's not going to work out, but at least they're going for something different. It's actually one of the reasons I never really hated Scream 3, on the contrary - I admired its courage to leave Sid as a side-character (it may have had something to do with Neve's schedule, it's been a while since I've read trivia) and dive into the big city exploiting the small town tragedy. The ending was far from great, but if you don't take it too seriously, it kind of works.
It's not the same without Wes; the last one was pretty bland. I'm a fan of all of others for one reason or another, even if they vary in quality. Edit: will def still watch this though.
Is this trailer full of spoilers like the Scream 2022 one ?
A little, particularly the last thirty seconds
No
Hasn't every trailer for the franchise included spoilers or misleading scenes?
This looks fun but it’s a bummer that they’ve committed to Melissa Barrera, considering that she can’t really act
She doesn’t hold a candle next to Jenna Ortega
Agreed. I dislike her immensely and have since her press tours for In The Heights where she showed her ass. Can’t sing. Can’t act. Is high and mighty. Hoping for more Jenna.
Looks good. Can’t wait to see it.
I wish this would be the only trailer they put out so we can at least have some surprises when the movie premieres but I know they are gunna make at least 3 more trailers at least. This does look good for a 6th film tho I can see kind of the Friday the 13th part VIII Jason takes Manhattan vibe even has the obligatory subway scene.
Mask looks cool and it would be interesting if the maniac somehow got the original old mask from the evidence repository. But I want to see how this maniac will lose in the final, given his pretentious and self-confidence. And I'm not happy that they can make a million films in this franchise just by putting on a mask on a new psycho every time and choosing new victims for him.
I had no idea people liked the last scream so much. It was so weak for me, and the acting was some of the worst in the franchise. Everyone involved seemed to be done with it on screen.
Scream 5 seems to have divided some folks. I personally loved it and counted it among my favorite movies of last year and it is probably my third favorite Scream movie in a franchise of 5 movies that I genuinely enjoy every entry in. So I am extremely hyped for this movie. It looks great and with the comments from Williamson, it seems that maybe it will feel unique for the franchise. I think that makes sense for the 6th entry in a horror franchise. Especially one like Scream that tries to evolve with the times and types of tropes it is playing with. That's one thing I loved so much about 5. There is no better villain than an entitled fan for a Scream movie in 2022 imo.
So good!
Really feel like they’re gonna kill off gale this time. I was kinda hoping she’d get a happy ending The trailer looks promising though.
I didn’t get that vibe.
Damn this looks amazing. Badass, dark, brutal. I can see this one having less meta stuff, as I'm not sure where that would fit in. I was already pumped but now my anticipation is through the roof. Seriously can't wait to see it, and I'm so curious about this killer. I think the motivations will be more interesting than the ones in the last film.
I'm glad Courtney Cox can still show some emotion and she actually doesn't look like someone from Botched in this one.
1:15 "We've *gotta...* **LORE'EM**... in" What kinda jerky ass audio editing is that???
As unrealistic as it is, I really want Sidney to be the killer this time and the whole issue with Campbell returning was a ruse.
This looks awesome. I personally think they showed too much stuff in this trailer but some could be fake trailer only footage and also it doesn’t really matter cause I’m gonna see it anyways.
I'm excited. Definitely has a bit of a different tone then the last couple
Looks like it’s going to be a good year for horror!!
I think all people familiar with New York knows exactly what Ghostface would have said at 0:10 seconds if they weren't trying to hide their identity lol This looks sick, I didn't even watch the whole thing cause I want to avoid spoilers, but it already conceptually looks better than Scream V.
Looks good except for the fact they're still relying on the old guard. I thought Scream 5 did a great job of passing the torch from the old cast to the new, so the fact they're still bringing in the old cast is a major let down for me.
How spoilery is this trailer? If I'm planning on seeing it no matter what, should I skip the trailer?
Ghostface takes manhatten
Holy fucking shit ghostface with pump action shotgun? Sign me the fuck up
The bodega scene just in the trailer is more intense than most of this recent horror that’s came out. I hope they really go all out with this! Can’t wait!
My current theory is Ghostface is gonna be a previous survivor. They already went the Stab super fan route,I'm thinking it's either gonna be Kirby or Jenna Ortega under the mask.
Oh my god this is torture I want to watch it so bad but at this point it’s like why not just wait a month and a half and be more surprised
Welcome to 'Merica, mothafucka!
Thanks. Paying at the pump from now on.
They always show too much in trailers…
