‘Scream’ creator details Sidney-vs -Ghostface showdown fans never saw

The Scream franchise is known for its blood-curdling opening sequences, as established by Drew Barrymore’s iconic on-screen death in the 1996 original. Subsequent sequels have continually tried to one-up the first film, then, with 2011’s Scream 4 earning the crown for the most creative as its pre-titles scene — featuring the likes of Lucy Hale, Kristen Bell, and Anna Paquin — stands as the most meta moment in any Scream movie.

But that film initially had a very different, and much lengthier, beginning that involved Neve Campbell’s Sidney Prescott herself. Scream creator and screenwriter Kevin Williamson opened up to Variety while promoting the latest entry in the saga, about this lost scene that fans never got to see. He explained that Scream 4 was supposed to start with a tense, gory, 15-minute stab-athon that would’ve inverted the usual formula by having Sidney kill Ghostface.
