Scream 7

Years after the events of the previous films, Sidney Prescott has built a quiet life in Indiana with her husband Mark and their teenage daughter, Tatum. That peace is shattered when a new Ghostface emerges, using sophisticated AI technology to impersonate Stu Macher and psychologically torment Sidney with digital recreations of the dead. As a new series of murders unfolds, suspicion begins to fall on Tatum herself, whose whereabouts during several attacks cannot be verified. Haunted by the betrayals of family members like Roman Bridger and Jill Roberts, Sidney becomes consumed by the fear that her daughter may be following the same path, creating a devastating rift between them just as Ghostface closes in. As the body count rises and legacy survivors Gale Weathers, Chad Meeks-Martin, and Mindy Meeks-Martin become involved, the mystery culminates in a deadly showdown at Pine Grove High School. The killers are revealed to be Tatum's best friend Chloe, Sidney's seemingly supportive neighbor Jessica, and drama teacher George Willis, a trio obsessed with stripping Ghostface of the personal motives that defined previous killers. Believing Ghostface should represent pure, meaningless terror rather than revenge or trauma, they set out to eradicate everyone connected to the Prescott and Carpenter legacies. In the brutal final confrontation, Sidney, Gale, Chad, and Tatum fight back, forcing Sidney to confront not only the killers but her own inability to trust the people she loves. Ultimately, the story becomes less about Ghostface and more about a mother and daughter overcoming generations of fear, trauma, and suspicion to save each other.
