March 13th 2024 : Scream 7 gets OG Cast and crew to return… Neve and Kevin Williamson..

Well.. after many setbacks for the upcoming SCREAM VII .. we finally get some news we all wanted… the SCREAM-Queen we all love is returning finally ( Finally Glad she got an agreement sorted out ) .. and even better.. Kevin Williamson is to return to!! But this time, to Direct!!
News was glady received by fans via Instagram from Neve and Kevin, and then shared vastly among online sites who were loving the good news!

See excerpt from The Hollywood Reporter!

The seventh installment faced multiple setbacks in recent months, including the firing of a star, the departure of another, and the exit of a director.

The addition of Campbell adds new life to the feature, as her character Sidney Prescott has been the the series’ heartbeat since the first installment. In 2022, when announcing talks had broken down over pay, she said in a statement, “As a woman I have had to work extremely hard in my career to establish my value, especially when it comes to Scream. I felt the offer that was presented to me did not equate to the value I have brought to the franchise.”

Late filmmaker Wes Craven directed the first four Scream features, with the first debuting in 1996 and skewering some of the same horror genre tropes Craven helped introduce during his storied career. The fifth installment in 2022 picked up the baton as the first Scream movie since Craven’s death in 2015 and proved it could thrive for a new generation of viewers.

Im finally glad we have some more hope of a Scream 7 turning out good.. RJ Torbert said a while ago now, that we should keep the faith!  It seems his words rang true.. More so after yesterdays news!


 


February 22nd 2022 : NEW RJ Torbert Interview is here…


October 11th 2021 : NEW EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK AT SCREAM 2022 from Entertainment Weekly!

Well, here we go again…. after seeing the first teaser poster i did wonder what would come next, the teaser trailer, or more info.. !!
And Now, we see EW have managed to get an EXCLUSIVE first look at the next movie with some new images, (Dont worry, non seem to be spoilers, or giving anything away)…
EW talk about the story of how the directors, Matt and Tyler wrote Neve Campbell a letter expressing why they wanted to do another film, and as we all know, it was because Wes had inspired them, and for good reason that touched good with Neve, as she loved Wes Craven!!
I have personally been avoiding many smaller items before now about the next film, but this article is harmless, we see some nice HQ pics and hopefully soon we’ll see the teaser trailer.

Pics and info below from EW.com
There are a few more pics on the original article…


Do you like scary movies?

Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett are hoping to scare audiences with the fifth Scream movie, titled simply Scream, when Paramount and Spyglass Media Group release the film on Jan. 14, 2022. But in the spring of 2020, it was the pair who were biting their nails waiting to see if the franchise’s longtime stars Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette would jump aboard the first film in the franchise since 2011’s Scream 4 and the first not to be directed by the late Wes Craven. The absence of one or more of the characters portrayed by the actors (Campbell’s final girl Sidney Prescott, Cox’s journalist Gale Weathers, and Arquette’s lawman Dewey Riley) would certainly raise eyebrows among the slasher franchise’s devoted army of fans. Moreover, Sidney, Gale, and Dewey were all prominently featured in the script for the movie, about a new killer who puts on the Ghostface mask and begins targeting teenagers to resurrect secrets from Woodsboro’s corpse-filled past.

The Scream shoot took place last fall in Wilmington, N.C. Campbell, Cox, and Arquette were joined by Marley Shelton, who played Deputy Judy Hicks in Scream 4, as well as franchise newcomers Kyle Gallner, Mason Gooding, Mikey Madison, Dylan Minnette, Jenna Ortega, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sonia Ammar, Jack Quaid, and Melissa Barrera. The latter plays the character Sam Carpenter and admits she initially had a hard time keeping a handle on her emotions when it came to acting with the OG Scream-ers.

Scream will be released on Jan. 14, 2022.

April 15th 2021 : Scre4m – 10 years ago..

Well, here we are.. back at that date.. 4.1.5.11… 10 years to the day that i post this… now of course its, 4.1.5.21…. Fans for years after Scream 3 ALWAYS talked about a fourth film, and always went to Scream and GhostFace forums (before Facebook ruined forums/message boards) and spoke with regards to a new film..

Most the time we saw topics on a film the key elements wanted were always the same names… Wes, Kevin, Neve, David and Courteney, and the score composer, Marco Beltrami… Thankfully we got what we wanted for that little checklist, but the fourth film always had mixed reactions.. Some preferring the extra footage we saw for Marnie and Jennys deaths, and others just nit-picking at the plot for whatever reason…. overall i personally was glad to see GhostFace back in action, and i wasnt giving the film top marks.. although i did enjoy it..  My current rating of films from favourite to least favourite is 2, 1, 4 ,3 …. I find no.1 to be almost unbeatable because of its unforgettable opening, but it was a slow film in regards to how it goes from one day to the next… Where as Scream 2, i found more suspensful, and always wondering what was going to happen next…

For me personally, it was the birth of Scream 4 that led me to get to know many fans over time., Nate Ragon, Meggy Blaine, Richie Suttles, Zach Cook, John Valeri, Zach Bartron, the list goes on…
It was also the project that got RJ Torbert started in Social media, and also the influence of Wes Craven who encouraged RJ to come online to Twitter..
See a short clip of the Scream 4 Premiere below..




May 25th 2020: Neve not signed on as of yet, but a letter was sent..

Well, here we are yet again, these little bits of news just keep coming steadily now… This time with Neve again, while she has NOT officially signed on to Scream 5 at this time, it seems she IS open to the idea, but like with Scream 4, it has to be for the right reasons, and done right, and to think, with Scream 4, we knew Wes was directing… yet she said No to Kevin Willimason at first too..  I cant remember the full story or what she said afterwards in the documentaries, but im sure Wes had a hand in getting her back… This time though, well, i only HOPE that she gets a bit more talking done with the two directors..
And that is what the article today includes, it seems the Directors of the future Scream 5 have sent a letter to Neve… Info below from Collider..


You’ve said that you were initially reluctant to do another Scream without Wes Craven, which is very understandable, but what ultimately you changed your mind and got you interested in that possibility?

CAMPBELL: Well, I’m not a hundred percent on it, but to be honest, the two directors (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett) have made some great work. I’ve watched their films, and they’re really talented. They wrote a letter to me, expressing what great fans of Wes’ work they are, and how honored they are that they’re getting the chance to make Scream 5 because the Scream franchise is the reason that they’re directors now. So, that was really sweet. They really wanna honor Wes’ style of work and honor the movies. That was a lovely thing to hear. So, we’ll see. Hopefully, we can all see eye to eye on everything and make something great, but it’s a process.

Have you always felt like there was more of Sidney’s story left to tell?

CAMPBELL: I think you can always tell them more with these stories, and they’re such fun films. There’s obviously a huge audience for them, and the audiences wants to see more of them. You can always go further with the journey. Certainly, with Sidney, she comes to some new shift in her life, every time, and I don’t know. We’ll see.


May 22nd 2020: Kevin Williamson talks via Podcast.. Original Scream 4 5 6 plans and more..

Well, it seems that more and more just lately we are seeing the doorway to more SCREAM talk open further and further… This time we see (or hear) a lot of info from Pre-Scream times and also more recent times from the writer we always wanted to be invovled in our beloived Scream films!! Kevin Wiliamson…
He always seems elusive (or simply busy as hell) in the past, his time in Scream 4 was brief to say the least.. and finally we can now listen to some of his stories via this Shock waves podcast, with Rob Galluzzo, Elric Kane, Rebekah McKendry, and Ryan Turek… Its a damn good listen.. and even mentions the original plans for what was meant to be a second Trilogy back in 2011..

As some may remember, a screenshot off the william morris agency intranet back in 2009 was sent to me and had info saying Williamson had signed a deal for a Scream 4, 5 and 6..  those other two films never came to fruition obviously after things went sour between Kevin and Bob Weinstein..
The talk with Kevin starts around the 59:30 time stamp… He talks all the way to the end….




November 19th 2019: SCREAM rights bought up by SpyGlass – Regulars returning?

Hello again, for a while now we have been hearing of a possible reboot of SCREAM, mostly in the way that Blumhouse had an interest, yet nothing ever used to suffice after hearing that info, on social media there would always be a fan that thought he/she was sharing a link to an article that said fan thought nobody had seen, but we all had seen it!! It was now getting to be old news, and the main fact that we lost Wes seemed to make fans say ‘Leave it alone’.. which many agreed with..

Then we come to November 6th 2019..
Bloody-Disgusting add the EXCLUSIVE NEWS that SpyGlass are now resurrecting GhoistFace… (excerpt below)

While Craven had directed all four Scream films before his passing, various filmmakers would get behind the camera for a television series that ran for two seasons on MTV and a third on VH1.

All four films remained canon while the series would create its own mythology. It’s unclear if the next film will continue to be canonized within Craven’s universe or be a remake, but we are hearing that, as of this writing, Williamson is not writing the screenplay.

The fact that at this early stage Kevin Williamson doesn’t seem to have any involvement is a major thing for me personally, and while there were fallout’s between Williamson and Bob Weinstein during SCREAM 4, at least we still had some sort of contribution from Kevin, and apparently Wes was writing bits of the scripts too in between takes!! But at least Scream 4 was completed, albeit a bit stressful!

Then we come to a more recent date.. November 18th.. Rumors start that the original cast are set to return.. something that takes me way back in time to 2008/09 when the very early news articles were starting up about the trios return, and although they did end up doing so ill never forget one of Kevin Willamson’s tweets back then in early stages simply stating ‘She said she wont do it!…’ in relation to Neve Campbell at the time turning it down when first being asked to return…

Below i have another excerpt from Bleedingcool.com… in relation to the trios return again…

A new report states that while nothing is officially decided on (more labeled as rumor mill material) producers of the next Scream movie are actively interested in reviving the franchise with Neve CampbellCourtney Cox, and David Arquette. If true, this could mean that the response from fans has been something Spyglass is very aware of, and could potentially give us more hope for their take on the iconic horror film series.

Despite the fact that this is strictly a rumor, if there’s any substance it would mean we are one step closer to seeing the trio reunite for one more stab at the Scream franchise. What are your thoughts on Scream 5 bringing back our favorite survivors? Are you excited about a chance for more Sidney vs Ghostface?

While i have seen the mentioned articles here at the time of publication i haven’t rushed to publish it here, as its way too early for us fans to start getting just a little bit excited..
Like in 2008/09 it is just early rumors overall here, NOTHING is concrete evidence as of yet regarding the trios return, but IF a fifth film does come our way with original characters then i stand by my overall opinion all along i had regarding Scream 4 in regard to our regular trio!! Which was.. (Put them through hell if necessary, give them fights and scratches and bruises but DONT kill them).
I always said that for Scream 4 if we didn’t have 5 main people then there was no point, those wanted were Wes, Kevin, and the Trio, and thankfully we got it, even if Kevin did depart.. and with another film coming in future i say the same again, just with no Wes, for obvious reason…


February 28th 2017: Powers and Johnson Third Novel Early details

Hello again, I’m here this time for various reasons, i wanted some info from RJ Torbert, and not just normal info, something that a lot of fans DONT KNOW… also, in light of recent events happening in New Orleans regarding a drunk bus driver driving into a crowd, i think we see a world in which anything can happen, and would you believe a similar accident happened to RJ and his wife!  Yet that is not so ‘common knowledge’ among fans who know of him…. In this world ANYTHING can happen at any time and it actually shows in regards to RJ and Wes Craven too… Wes was pushed closer to RJ even more than ever than before after RJ’s accident, but it was originally re-ignited when Scream 4 came about, but after Scream 4 had died down and left Theaters RJ could continue with his book (The Face of Fear) and eventually it was released, Wes being the kind of man he was requested the book and loved it, so much that he left RJ a comment to use in relation to both books (See back cover of NO MERCY). Im sure RJ was proud and honored to have it there. Following on from that Wes had told RJ about his illness and this saddened RJ greatly, it was also evident that Wes cared too about RJ and his wife Roseann because when RJ informed Wes of the Drunk driver accident they were both in Wes’s contact increased more so by email, As time went on Wes would ask for news on NO MERCY, RJ would inform him of the latest at the time but sadly Wes passed away before getting a chance to read it, Wes passed away on the actual day the book was finished in the editing process. RJ stopped work on the book temporarily to have a page added into the front of the book to show his love and respect for Wes, he thought about what to write in tribute to ‘the master of horror’ and finally the book was ready for print. As you open the NO MERCY book fans will notice that there is a single page for the Wes Tribute.. Its just sad that he didn’t get chance to read it.. However, before Wes passed, and with being in contact more with RJ he shared a true story about something that really happened to him, an incident with somebody who had a GhostFace mask in tow… Its unclear as to what actually happened at this time but Wes had got the chance to take pictures as the event’ unfolded. Wes thought it would be good for RJ to use in his writing, this event is to be the starting point for RJ’s third Powers and Johnson Novel.. Wes had sent the pictures and info for RJ to use, RJ wanted fans to know how much he respected Wes and wanted Wes’s memory to not only be remembered for his movies, but for this too.. this ‘something’ that had happened to him… Info below is from RJ Torbert.

“AS YOU KNOW,  WES AND I WERE IN REGULAR COMMUNICATION FOR YEARS ,WHICH INCREASED AT THE BEGINNING OF SCREAM 4.  ————-THE COMMUNICATION INCREASED EVEN MORE  AFTER MY WIFE  AND I WERE ALMOST KILLED  IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN LATE SEPTEMBER OF  2013— BY A DRUNK DRIVER.  OUR VEHICLE WAS HIT BROADSIDE(T-BONED) BY  A LARGE FORD EXPEDITION WHICH CAUSED OUR VEHICLE TO FLIP 3 TIMES OFF THE HIGHWAY AND INTO THE WOODS  HITTING A TREE TO STOP IT.  BY THE GRACE OF GOD AND OUR SEAT BELTS AND A BRAND NEW CAR, WE NOT ONLY SURVIVED BUT MY WIFE WALKED AWAY.  I , HOWEVER HAD TEETH KNOCKED OUT AND MY SHOULDER NEEDED SURGERY. AS MANY OF  YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED , I HAVE NO SYMPATHY FOR DRUNK DRIVERS  AND  CONTINUE TO REMAIN DISAPPOINTED AND FRUSTRATED THAT THE LAWS ARE NOT MORE STRICT.  THE YOUNG MAN WHO HIT US WHO BY THE WAY HAD 5 TEENAGERS IN THE CAR ( YES 5) GOT OFF LIGHTLY WITH A LICENSE SUSPENSION AND COMMUNITY SERVICE BECAUSE IT WAS HIS FIRST OFFENSE.  A DRUNK DRIVER WHO PUT  7 PEOPLES LIVES IN DANGER  AND BY THE WAY WAS UNDERAGE (18)  GOT OFF THIS LIGHTLY. EVEN YESTERDAY , ANOTHER  30 PEOPLE WERE INJURED IN NEW ORLEANS BY A DRUNK DRIVER WHO PLOWED THROUGH A CROWD.  AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT,  IT WAS NOT RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC AND ONLY VERY FEW KNEW ABOUT IT UNTIL WE RECOVERED,  WHICH RESULTED IN SHOULDER SURGERY AND 8 MONTHS OF PHYSICAL THERAPY  FOR MYSELF.  WES, WHO WAS GOING THROUGH HIS OWN STRUGGLES,  WAS VERY CONCERNED AND SUPPORTIVE WHICH BROUGHT OUR RELATIONSHIP MORE INTO THE PERSONAL AREA. TO THE POINT OF WHERE WE COMMUNICATED ABOUT MOST ANYTHING TWO –THREES DAYS WEEKLY.  DURING THIS PERIOD  HE SENT ME A THOUGHT ABOUT A FUTURE PROJECT  AND SUPPORTED IT WITH PHOTOS BECAUSE THE EVENT HE DESCRIBED ACTUALLY  HAPPEN TO HIM, AND HE SNAPPED A COUPLE PHOTOS WITH HIS CELL PHONE. I THOUGHT IT WAS VERY IRONIC AND  ALMOST EERIE  THAT AN EVENT INVOLVING THE GHOST FACE MASK HAPPEN TO HIM.  THIS OCCURRENCE WILL BE USED IN THE NEXT AND FINAL CHAPTER OF  THE POWERS AND JOHNSON TRILOGY  BOOK SERIES.  MY PLAN IS TO ALSO USE THE PHOTOS  THAT  WES  ACTUALLY TOOK HIMSELF  THAT HE GAVE TO ME.  IT WILL PROVE THAT HE LIVES ON AND CONTINUES TO GIVE TO HIS FANS . I DO THIS OUT OF MY AFFECTION AND RESPECT FOR WES AND MY DESIRE TO KEEP HIS FANS CONNECTED TO HIS LEGACY.  WHILE HIS FILMS WILL KEEP HIS MEMORY ALIVE,  I THOUGHT  SOMETHING NEW  WOULD MAKE HIS FANS VERY HAPPY THAT A SCENE THAT TAKES PLACE IN THE BEGINNING OF THE NEXT POWERS AND JOHNSON  NOVEL WAS INSPIRED BY THE TRUE MASTER OF HORROR,  WES CRAVEN”

Well, its only back in June 2016 that RJ’s New novel NO MERCY was released and sadly some people THINK that he is just trying to make money off of GhostFace… Yet nothing could be further from the truth!
Text below comes from RJ himself…

TIM,  as this point, ———-it is also getting a little tiresome  about me doing books for profit, ———it seems everyone can  work with GHOST FACE ——and  make a profit including the studios,  however, maybe the few would get quiet if they knew  that the profits  go to charity causes.  I have taken  0 profit.  Maybe that will make those skeptics  feel better, however, if it makes people feel better, I have never taken a profit from the books, Checks have been issued to various charities. As many know, I originally wrote the Ghost Face Novels to bring it back to the public, A movie had not been done for 10 years. Remember  Ghost Face is a big part of my job, and since I wanted to start writing a NOVEL, I combined  2 important things in my life. This was only done with the blessing from Wes , I didn’t need it legally but I respected him enough to want him to be happy with my decision. He was a huge supporter,  and even signed copies of  THE FACE OF FEAR to show his support. I WILL  move on to other projects  after the next and final Powers and Johnson Novel.  I have even thought about writing a screenplay .  As I encourage many every day and in tweets,  We should continue to pursue our dreams  and  what makes us happy.  No one should begrudge anyone in working hard and taking a profit should they decide to do so.  In my case, I’m blessed to where I can help certain causes we believe in at  ENTERTAINMENT 21 CORP from the sale of the books.

I Thank RJ VERY MUCH for his contribution to this article and in giving me the ‘Something fans DONT KNOW’ info i was looking for… I love the honesty he gives us, and the encouragement too!
