There Is No ‘Scream 5’ Update, Sorry.
Update (May 6th, 2015): I have confirmed, unfortunately, that there is NO movement on a fifth Scream also of this writing.
A few hours ago I was sent an article with an “update” about Scream 5.
The update was a story that referenced old articles about the sequel, without links, and treated them as fresh news/sources. With two seconds of effort, I found the old editorials and learned they’re from last summer. Old news to say the least.
I hoped it would blow over, but sites are now picking up the story as if there’s “movement” of a fifth Scream.
There isn’t, at least according to my source inside of Dimension. With MTV’s “Scream” series set to premiere this summer, who knows what that could do to reinvigorate the franchise that nearly ended with a feud between franchise director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson (they kissed and made up right after). Williamson has said he has the fifth planned with a sixth already in his mind…
With that said, the 2011 Scream 4 underperformed, not even topping $40M (the production budget) here in the States. It did, however, make close to $100M worldwide. Harvey Weinstein said in 2013 that he personally would love to “end the franchise” with a fifth and final film. So, it is only a matter of time.
Let’s at least use this wasted post for a value discussion: what do you want from the fifth film, if it were to ever come into fruition?

‘Mind Body Spirit’ Exclusive Trailer – Get Twisted with Found Footage Yoga Horror Movie in May
A yoga influencer discovers just how flexible fear can be in Mind Body Spirit, a new found footage horror movie that Welcome Villain Films is bringing to the table in a couple weeks.
Mind Body Spirit will release on Digital outlets May 7.
Get twisted with the official trailer and poster art below.
Matt Donato raved in his 4-star review, “Mind Body Spirit is a knockout horror session for the livestream era, which has me desperately waiting to see what its creators and stars do next.”
In Mind Body Spirit, “Anya, an aspiring yoga influencer, embarks on a ritual practice left behind by her estranged grandmother. She documents the practice on her YouTube channel for the world to watch, allowing her audience intimate access to her journey.
“But what starts as a spiritual self-help guide evolves into something much more sinister. As Anya becomes obsessed with the mysterious power of the practice, she unwittingly unleashes an otherworldly entity that begins to take control of her life – and her videos. Now Anya must race to unlock the truth, before her descent into madness threatens to consume her mind, body and spirit. By the time she reveals the true nature of the ritual, will it be too late?”
Mind Body Spirit was written and directed by Alex Henes & Matthew Merenda.
The upcoming horror film stars Sarah J. Bartholomew, Madi Bready, KJ Flahive, Anna Knigge, and Kristi Noory, and was produced by Dan Asma and Jesse McClung.
