For more than 20 years, Kevin Williamson’s Scream franchise has struck fear into viewers around the world. As the series enters its sixth chapter, the team behind the film believes it is ready to up the ante.
“With the last Scream, they were tip-toeing and trying to be very respectful of what the franchise had been, up until that point, and keeping their inner gory dreams at bay,” Scream VI actress Melissa Barrera told Collider.
“But with this one, they were like, ‘We’re going all out.’ It’s potentially a hundred times gorier.”
In the sixth installment of the horror franchise, Barrera will return as Sam. As she returns to the big screen, she will also be joined by Jenna Ortega, Jasmin Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding. Most importantly, they will be joined by Ghostface as they attempt to leave their past behind them in favor of new beginnings in New York, New York.
“Ghostface gets a lot more intimidating,” Ortega said.
“I just read part of the script, and it just gets [gorier and gorier]. I think that this is probably the most aggressive and violent version of Ghostface we’ve ever seen, which I think will really be fun to shoot.”
