Hi-Res Dimension Takes a Stab at New ‘Scream 4′ Poster

I love when a studio is able to get creative with a poster without making it look cheesy. While the last Scream 4 one sheet channeled the original trilogy, the newest looks forward to a new decade, with new rules. It carries a profile look at ol’ Ghostface that smoothes out into blade, giving a little nod to “Stab” and the killer’s signature weapon. A+

Because, What’s a Day Without ‘Scream 4′ News?

News? Well no, but director Wes Craven released a fun little behind-the-scene photo of himself working hard on editing Scream 4, which is set for release on April 15.

He teased Twitter followers with “Shhh… SCREAM4 Killer Revealed,” adding, “Gotcha!” for those who clicked through. Did you really think he was going to show you the killer? Come on now. Although, playing a game of semantics, he’s not lying as he does show a new look at Ghostface.

Blu-Ray Review: ‘My Soul To Take’

My Soul To Take isn’t a good film by any stretch, but it’s fascinating to watch in the same way an Ed Wood flick is. Wes Craven’s return to the director’s chair after a four year absence (and the first time he’s written and directed since New Nightmare) is an unmitigated mess, filled with unbelievable dialogue, the plainest kills possible, horrible acting, and a story that feels the need to rehash its exposition in lieu of a satisfying finale. In many ways, it feels like a Scary Movie entry from the future, compiling every cliché and random act of stupidity seen in genre films and trying to make them relevant again like fashion statements from a few decades ago. Even when considering that Craven hasn’t been at the top of his horror-game since Scream, My Soul To Take is still mind-blowingly inept. And yet, here I am, unable to take my eyes off the screen.

A Real-Deal Full Review from the ‘Scream 4′ Test Screening!

To kick off the New Year, Dimenion Films set up a slew of test-screenings for Wes Craven’s highly anticipated Scream 4. A few early, but incredibly vague reviews out of the showing were intensely positive, which I found hard to believe seeing that Craven flew back to Detroit for a few days of additional photography.

Since then, Craven has spoken out clearing the air that they were NOT reshoots, and that he was adding some sugar and spice to an already superior movie. This is standard practice from a director who gets back behind the camera. The truth is on film.

Anyways, Bloody Disgusting reader ‘KillorbeKilled’ was prevy to one of the test-screenings and was cool enough to send in his review. I’d say this is the first complete review that still is relatively spoiler-free. I have verified that our mystery writer was in fact at the screening. Knowing he enjoyed an early cut this much, Craven’s extra ingredients are sure to add more depth and flavor. How far away in April 15th again?

Behind-the-Scenes of ‘Scream 4′ With Ghostface & Sharp Objects

Director Wes Craven took to Twitter now that’s he’s hanging around set of Scream 4, which is currently under additional photography in Detroit, Michigan. He tweets, “Everyone’s a critic… even Ghostface,” before posting a behind-the-scenes look at Ghostface watching a scene on Craven’s monitor. Posting yet another pic, this time of some bloody props, he writes, “Warming up the Props!” Check out the second image inside.

‘Scream 4′, Wes Craven Clarifies: “They’re NOT Reshoots!”

There’s a huge difference between reshoots and “additional photography”, which is why we clearly specify what’s taking place when a movie adds some new footage to the existing shoot. A lot of other websites don’t understand the difference, which is why directors get so frustrated with news leaking on “additional photography.” It’s not always a bad thing.

Wes Craven caught up with EW to explain what kind of filming took place on Scream 4 this past week in Michigan: “They’re not reshoots,” says Craven from the snowy set in Detroit. “We had a couple test screenings and we saw two scenes where they had moments you could add to and we just saw a spectacular opportunity. Bob [Weinstein] just said to me basically, `You go to your dark side and I’ll give you the money!’ [Laughs] The two scenes were really good, but we saw how they could be spectacular, so we thought, let’s just go for it. They were key moments of the script, so we just decided to go back and go for the grand slam on them.

And as for reports that the ending was being retooled? Don’t believe it. “No, the ending is totally kick-ass,” says Craven. “We’re not gonna touch that. [The scenes being added to are] one scene that’s kind of in the late beginning and one scene that’s a little bit later.

Now that this is laid to rest, can we can now focus on the April 15th release date? Please?

‘Scream 4′ Going Back Behind Cameras

After a slew of test screenings on the East Coast, it looks like Wes Craven may be going back behind cameras to shoot additional film for Scream 4. On Location Vacations pointed out that one of their readers received a filming notice in Northville, MI (on Clement St. between 7 mile and Frederick) for Jan. 31 & Feb. 2 that simply listed a motion picture entitled “Z”. Anyone who was following the Scream 4 shoot last summer will remember much of the film was shot in Northville under the production name Z. Additional photography does not mean there are problems, sometime when the film is assembled they learn of soft spots that could be strengthened. Maybe they want more gore? Maybe they want a new ending? Who knows.

Sidney’s Motivation for Woodsboro Return in ‘Scream 4′

While Scream fan sites are having aneurysm over the story, the following is obviously from the opening act of Scream 4, and provides the fate of a character that I personally care zero about. The fact that this character’s death provides motivation for Sidney makes her return to Woodsboro all the more believable. Personally, they should include this in the synopsis. But for those of you who want to know NOTHING about Wes Craven’s Scream 4, I implore you to avoid reading on. Dimension Films opens the new trilogy in theaters April 15.

Early ‘Scream 4′ Test-Screening Review Raves

While the leaked synopsis provided way more info, fansite Scream-Trilogy (they might need to change the site’s name) claims to have a “verified as genuine” review of Wes Craven’s Scream 4. Unsurprisingly, a fan site regular LOVED it. “This outshines the 3rd one easily,” he explains adding, “The opening scene was hilarious and brutal…[it's] definitely the bloodiest of all of them.” The writer also exclaims that “the ending was insanity” and that it’s “easily the best of all the series.” It’s so incredibly vague that anyone could have claimed to have seen it. And it’s even more difficult to take a superfan’s word with any grain of salt as they may have loved it “just because.” Just for the sake of comparison, I’d like to see a more detailed review come in that actually exposes a bit of criticism. Dimension Films will release the fourth film on April 15.
