‘Scream’ Clip: A Weathered Dewey Breaks Down Three Rules to Identify Ghostface [Video]
Wes Craven’s 1996 masterpiece Scream might be a slasher on its surface, but it’s importantly also a whodunit in which any of the film’s characters could be the killer.
Paramount Pictures has made the mystery a huge part of the marketing behind the new Scream, this time directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett, as well as executive producer Chad Villella, the three members of the filmmaking group Radio Silence (Ready or Not, V/H/S, Southbound).
In this brand new clip, a weathered Dewey Riley (David Arquette) looks defeated, like he’s given up on life after 25 years of continual trauma. Two of the suspects teens have tracked him down in search of answers. What they get are three rules that will help them identify who is behind the Ghostface mask.
- Rule #1: Never trust the love interest.
- Rule #2: The Killer’s motive is always connected to something in the past.
- Rule #3: First victim always has a friend group that the killer is always part of.

‘Ages of Madness: The Howling of the Jinn’ – Alex de la Iglesia Directing Animated H.P. Lovecraft Movie
Inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft, the upcoming animated movie Ages of Madness: The Howling of the Jinn will be directed by acclaimed Spanish filmmaker Alex de la Iglesia (The Day of the Beast, The Last Circus, Witching and Bitching, “30 Coins”).
Variety notes in their report that the film will mark Alex de la Iglesia’s animation debut.
Ages of Madness: The Howling of the Jinn is said to be “the first major adult 3D animation production to fully adapt the complex universe of H.P. Lovecraft for the big screen.”
Variety details, “It weaves what is described as several ‘tragically intertwined stories’ linked by one of Lovecraft’s masterpieces, his imagining of a legendary forbidden book, the Necronomicon, whose reading sparks madness or ghastly death.”
“Lovecraft consistently refers to the book in his stories, claimed it contains an account of the Old Ones who ruled before humankind and will rule after it. He hardly reproduces the book’s contents, however, making it all the more sinister,” Variety’s report explains.
In the upcoming animated movie from Alex de la Iglesia, ” the book will travel through time across four historical and geographical settings as distant as they are grim.”
“Feeding on humanity’s thirst for forbidden knowledge, ‘Necronomicon’ unleashes madness and the chilling certainty that we are nothing more than dust of the Ancient Ones.”
“I have always been fascinated by the Lovecraftian universe, and being able to bring that cosmic horror to the screen alongside Álex de la Iglesia is a dream come true,” 3Doubles Producciones CEO Darío Sánchez said. “I am convinced that this is a turning point for our sector: adult animation is booming, and this project will put the Spanish industry on the global map.”
