So the new Scream movie is less than two weeks away here, and its entire marketing campaign has
been really centered on who the killers are going to be. So in this video I'm going to give you my
own personal predictions on who I think is going to live, die, and of course be revealed as Ghostface
in the end. Okay, so I've gone ahead and made a little chart here to kind of make this easier
and more streamlined. I should point out before we get into this that I have no insider knowledge on
what's going to happen with this movie. I've been relatively spoiler and trailer free. I've only seen
the first trailer, and I've only watched it once. Pretty much just going on what I know about these
characters, which is not really a whole lot. We've got 13 in total here, which does include all of the
main cast members who did receive their own promotional photo with the Ghostface mask. And
then Vince, who for some reason doesn't have his own poster, so I guess he's not that integral of
a character. But his name has been thrown out there a lot, so I figured I would add him to this as well.
I've made five categories for this list here, and of course first we've got Ghostface, which
is pretty self-explanatory. Whoever I put there is who I think Ghostface is going to be. That could
be one, or two, or more people. Red herring. That is going to be the people who are the ones that
are really going to be pushed as the killer. R.I.P. That's going to be the people who die. And again,
that doesn't mean that the Ghostfaces or the red herrings aren't going to die either, this
is just the category for the people who I simply think are just fodder for the kill count here.
Survivors. Obviously the people who make it to the end. And wild card. I'll explain that one more
as I get to the character I put there, because there's only one character who's kind of a wild
card for me. So I'm gonna start off with the OG characters here, Sidney in particular. And I'm
gonna say that she's gonna survive this movie, and the reason why I think she's going to survive is
because I think that it would be a mistake to kill off Sidney. I think that her
role here is going to be very much akin to Nancy coming back in Nightmare 3, where she's kind
of the mentor to this new crew of characters. And of course, SPOILERS for Nightmare 3
I guess, but you know that didn't really work out so well for her in the end. And I know
that Wes Craven regretted that, and I think that just in terms of these new directors respecting
Wes Craven, that's not gonna be something that they're gonna do with Sidney Prescott. So I feel
like she's safe here. I do think that at least one of the OGs is gonna get killed off. They know that
Scream 4 kind of played it safe with them, and coming back for a fifth movie with all three
of your main stars is kind of unprecedented, so the time is up for one of them. And I think
that that's going to be Dewey. So I think R.I.P for Dewey, which I mean, I don't want to
see any of these three die, but I have a feeling that it's going to be him and not Gale. Because
the thing is with Dewey, he's kind of like the backbone of the three of them. Without Dewey,
Sidney and Gale don't have a relationship, and if Dewey dies, he kind of has
such a strong connection with both Sidney and Gale separately, that that's gonna only strengthen
the bond of those two characters moving forward. So with Gale, I'm gonna say that she survives as well.
And I wanted to comment on this, because you know a lot of people think that these characters are
coming back and they're gonna be revealed as the killer. Let me just say this. Obviously, if one
of these three are revealed as the killer, that'll be shocking. I'll give you that, it'll be shocking.
I mean, I wouldn't predict it, but at the same time just because it's shocking, it doesn't mean that it's
good, and it doesn't mean that it's logical. And you have to think of the fallout after
that, and also the setup, and what reason these characters would have to go on a
murder spree. It's ridiculous. None of these people are gonna be the killer. And if they are,
kudos for blindsiding me like that, but also your movie automatically sucks. Let's move on to
Vince here, just because he's he's right there. I'm gonna say red herring. I don't know anything
about this character, really. From his look I think that he's going to be one of
those people who you would think could be the killer because he's the suspicious type.
I guess like the Trevors of Scream 4 and Detective Kincaid in Scream 3.
Just thinking of people who look shady, but turn out to be nothing. So he's a
red herring. He'll probably be R.I.P, I don't think that any one other than who I put in the survivor
category will survive. So he's gonna be a red herring until he's not, and he's gonna die.
Liv. I'm gonna say R.I.P. She's not making the sequel. She's like the Tatum character or like
the Olivia character in this movie. I think that this movie is going to really push an angle of
making us think that it's going to be two female killers because that's something that hasn't been
done. We've seen the two male killers. We've seen male/female killer combinations. We've seen the one
male killer. Having said that though, I'm going to say that Amber... Is that her name? Amber, yeah.
Amber is a red herring, and I think that that's kind of gonna be primarily where the two female killer
idea comes in. I think that Amber is gonna be kind of like the main red herring of the movie. She just
seems really shifty. The actress who portrays her was in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
playing one of those Manson cult members, so you know she can do the crazy. But I don't
think that she's gonna be the killer. Okay, Richie. Richie is going to be... Richie's gonna be R.I.P.
From what we've seen with this cast, they're all very integrated. It seems like everybody knows
each other, they're all Woodsboro based. I think if there's one character that's kind of the outsider
here, that is Richie, because he just seems to kind of have a relationship with Samantha, and only
really knows her through her new life after she's left Woodsboro. It's possible
he could be presented as a red herring because he's an outside character, but I think that he's
just gonna be kind of a sucker, like he's just gonna be the unfortunate person who gets involved
in this. Like maybe the Derek type, so there could be red herring-ness to his character, but
I think that Vince and Amber are gonna be the two characters that are really gonna be put under the
microscope by the other people in this movie. All right, I'm gonna give you one of the killers, cause
I think that there's two, and I don't want to string you along too long. So I think that
Wes is gonna be one of the killers. I guess I'll get more into it when I put the other person who I
think the killer is going to be. But from everything that it sounds like, he's kind of being
set up as the new Randy, being the one that's the cautious one of the groups. So I'm kind of
leaning towards it's going to be the person who you least suspect, you know the people who are
the ones who are like "No, don't do that". You know, follow the rules, yada yada. So more on him
later, but i'm gonna go ahead and give you Chad. And Chad I think is going to survive the movie. And
actually, I'm gonna go ahead and put Mindy there as well because they're the twins and I think
they're both gonna survive. Because you're gonna need new characters lined up so that you could
get some new movies going forward, because you're going to want to see familiar faces going into
Scream 6 or 7. They are relatives of Randy. They're Meekses. Their presence I feel, is kind of
like the franchise amending the fact that they killed off Randy in the second movie, because
I think that it would just be a twisting of the knife if they've killed Randy and then
they've brought in new characters who are part of his lineage, and they're just like
"well, we're gonna kill them too". And I don't think that they would be the killers, because it's not
in that family's DNA, but I think they're going to survive, and I hope they do, because I don't want to
see any more pain befall the Meeks family. They've been through enough. Samantha. Samantha's going to
survive. Samantha's the main character. Samantha is the new Sidney Prescott moving forward, and I don't
see them doing another Jill thing here. That would just feel really played out. There's a chance
that maybe there could be a twist and she could die, which we didn't see coming. I'm leaning
more towards the idea that we're setting up this new character. We're gonna
want to keep going with her, so I'm banking on her survivability. So the second killer,
I'm just going to reveal right now, and that's gonna be Judy Hicks. And I know this is really
ridiculous, okay. But let me just say this. This franchise has a history of kind of repeating
itself. Not in a very overt way, but in just like subtle ways, and that kind of comes in how it
connects back to the horror genre, as a whole. And I know that they've said that this movie
is not going to be very meta. It's not going to be referencing other horror movies as much as
it is referencing itself. But I mean, even if you're referencing yourself, look at the the past
killers. You've had Billy Loomis and Mrs. Loomis, but even outside of that, just the mother-son
duo. There's so many movies where the mother turns out to be the killer. And Judy is a very
eccentric character, like she's a bit nutty. And I don't know how that's going to tie
into Scream 4, since this is a character who's brought back from Scream 4. I don't think that
she had any involvement with Jill or Charlie in that plan. I think that it's possible that
maybe there is something that will be retconned as part of Scream 4 that we didn't know about,
just in terms of her character, or something that might have set her off. But regardless of what
happens, I think that the backstory of whatever the reason for the motive of the murders is going on
is connected to Samantha. And it has something to do with the kids when they were younger, like the
new teenagers. So Wes, when he was younger. And if that's the case, it could be Judy
covering up for her son. It always comes back to the family with these movies, and that's
gonna bring me to Tara, the last pick, which is my wild card. Now what I mean by wild card is
that I think that it's possible she could be many things, and I don't really know. This is the
one character I can't pinpoint. It's possible she could survive, although we do have a lot of surviving
characters at this point. Also, very possibly we're gonna see that this film has three killers
and she could be the potential third Ghostface. Again, I don't necessarily think that that's gonna
happen, I just don't know where they're going with this character, so I wanted to kind of leave her
a little open-ended. But I guess we'll see what happens when the movie is released. If you guys
want to check out some more Scream videos, they're just right over here. And I will be right back.
