Director Statement
I have been a fan of the Scream films since the first time I saw the commercials/trailer, when I was only 9 years old. I have studied them for 25 years, loving the characters, dialogue, homages to previous horror films, and the twists of course. This is my love letter to the franchise and my opening sequence to my own idea for Scream 5 that I’ve been thinking about since 2016.
