Do you like scary movies?
If so, you probably weren't too impressed by the last couple of Scream movies, but Paramount Pictures is hoping too breath new life into the iconic horror franchise with this fifth instalment, and the first trailer is now online.
The footage begins with yet another recreation of the opening scene from the first movie, but this time Ghostface is armed with some new technology which grants him easier access to his victims. After dispatching the unfortunate Drew Barrymore stand-in, we're off to the races as Dewey Riley (David Arquette) calls up his old friend Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) to inform her that "it's" happening again.
With Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) and some new knife-fodder joining the fray, the gang must attempt to figure out the killer's identity before it's too late.
Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past. Neve Campbell (“Sidney Prescott”), Courteney Cox (“Gale Weathers”) and David Arquette (“Dewey Riley”) return to their iconic roles in Scream alongside Melissa Barrera, Kyle Gallner, Mason Gooding, Mikey Madison, Dylan Minnette, Jenna Ortega, Jack Quaid, Marley Shelton, Jasmin Savoy Brown, and Sonia Ammar.
Paramount Pictures teamed with Spyglass Media to co-produce and distribute Scream, which has Ready or Not duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett on board to direct. James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick are co-writing the screenplay. Producers for the film are Vanderbilt, Paul Neinstein and William Sherak, with Kevin Williamson executive producing.
What did you guys make of this first trailer? Scream slices its way into theaters next January.
