Sidney Prescott
Whatever his link is to our past, it's pulled us all back here. And I won't sleep until he's in the ground.

Dewey
[Over the phone]
But, Sid, promise me. No matter what you hear or what you see on the news, don't come here.
Sidney
No offense, Dewey, I have no intention of ever setting foot in that town again.
Dewey
Good.
Sidney
Dewey, whoever this killer is after, I'm glad they have you to protect them. [Gets emotional] You be safe, okay?
Dewey
Will do.
Sidney
It's good to hear your voice.
Dewey
You, too, Sid.
Sidney
Sam, I want you to help us kill him.
Sam
You want me to help you and the host of a morning show to commit murder?
Gale
Correct.
Sidney
Yeah.
Sidney
I put a tracker on her car.
Gale
You did what?
Sidney
Seems like something Gale Weathers would do.
Gale
I'll take that as a compliment.
Gale
If I hadn't written that book about your mother, none of this would have happened.
Sidney
Gale...
Gale
I started all this.
Sidney
No, you didn't. Billy Loomis started this, and we're gonna end it. After tonight, no more books, no more movies, no more f***ing Ghostface.
Amber
[Runs outside crying and screaming]
Help me! Help me! He stabbed me!
Sidney
[Looks at Gale]
What do you think?
Gale
Trap.
Amber
[Stops pretending]
F**k it! [Shoots Gale]
Ghostface
[Sidney enters Stu's old house for the first time in years. Sidney's cell phone rings. She answers it]
Hello, Sidney.
Sidney
Hello, there. Where'd you go?
Ghostface
Oh, this isn't Amber. I'm the other one.
Sidney
Oh, there's two of you...again. I've seen this movie before.
Ghostface
Not this movie, Sidney.
Sidney
You really need some new material. [Shoots door]
Ghostface
I got you here, didn't I?
Sidney
You might actually be the most derivative one of all. I mean, Christ, the same house? [Shoots door]
Ghostface
Maybe so, but you forgot the first rule of surviving a 'Stab' movie: never answer the...
Sidney
[Cuts Ghostface off]
I'm bored.
Ghostface
Wait!
[Sidney ends the call]
Richie
[Richie and Amber have revealed themselves to be the killers, and they drag Sam and Sidney to the kitchen]
Someone has to save the franchise! You see, no one has made a great "Stab" movie since the first one. Not really. [To Amber] Hey, baby, you want to go get the very ex-Mrs. Riley?
Amber
Yeah, I do.
Richie
[Richie approaches Sidney]
Sidney Prescott. You know, I'm a really big fan.
Sidney
Go f**k yourself.
Richie
You see the last "Stab" movie?
Sidney
Not really a fan of scary movies.
Richie
That checks out. Anyway, it sucked balls. Because nobody takes the true fans seriously, not really. They just laugh at us, and why?! Because we love something?! We're just a f***ing joke to them?! How can fandom be toxic? It's about love! They don't f**king understand these movies are important to people!
Sam
Richie...
Richie
[hearing Sam, he swings his knife to face her]
And we're gonna help them! Hollywood's totally f***ing out of ideas, so we decided we'd give them some new source material to follow. You know, bring it back to basics. Because that's how you make a great "Stab" movie, Sam. Based on actual events.
Sam
[Amber drags Gale to the kitchen, then approaches Sidney, mockingly waving her knife at her while mimicking the Psycho theme]
You did all this just to make me the hero of your fuced-up movie?
Richie
Sweetie, you’re not the hero. You’re the villain. The daughter of Billy Loomis who sees f***ed-up visions of her dead dad. Sidney Prescott killed your father. You...did all this just to get her back to Woodsboro.
Amber
You know what the biggest problem with the "Stab" movies is? There’s no Michael Myers or Jason Voorhees, no bad guy to keep coming back. But the illegitimate daughter of the original mastermind? Now that’s a **** villain.
Sam
How did you know?
Amber
About your father? [giggling] I mean, it’s a small town and your mom’s a drunk! [she nods toward Richie, who smiles] I met Richie on the "Stab" subreddit. I’ve been obsessed ever since my parents bought this house. We realized pretty quickly we had similar ideas.
Richie
[turning to Sam]
Wasn’t that hard for me to find you in Modesto. It wasn’t that hard for me to **** you, either. But I guess being a sexually available woman is supposed to be empowering these days.
Sam
[Angered]
F**k you!
Richie
Well, now you’re just quoting the original.
Amber
[Amber and Richie chuckle]
But it wouldn’t work with just you, Sam. See, we had to bring the legacy characters back to make it matter. Can’t have a bona fide Halloween without Jamie Lee!
Richie
Nope!
Amber
Dewey had to die to make it real, to show that this wasn’t just some bullshit, cash-in, run-of-the-mill sequel. [Gale looks up in shock and disbelief; Amber suddenly raises her voice] Because OUR MOVIE HAS **** STAKES!!! [Speaks in a sing-song tone] ‘Cause anyone can die in a requel.
Richie
[Sidney attempts to escape, only for Amber to stab her in the side. Gale shrieks and Sam gasps.] [Mutters in irritation]
Goddamn it! [Speaking to Sidney, fiercely] Whoa, whoa! No, hey, sit the **** down! [calmer] I’m so sorry, Sid. We can’t let you live, either. I mean, surviving this many times, that would just be ridiculous. [Speaks in a true evil and delusional tone] This time, the fans are gonna be the ones who win. [To Amber] That about cover it?
Amber
[Smiles]
Nailed it, baby.
Richie
[Confident their plan will succeed without fail]
Get Tara out of the closet. We got to go start staging the bodies!
Gale
[Amber leaves; Gale checks on Sidney] [desperate]
Stay with me, Sid. Stay with me.
Richie
[Richie starts taunting Sam]
You really should’ve listened to Dewey! He nailed it in one! "Dude, look at the love interest!" Are you **** stupid? I even had you convinced it could be your sister.
Amber
[Immediately after, Amber's voice is heard, sounding stunned and confused]
Um, she’s not here.
Richie
[Richie's smile fades as he becomes stunned]
The f*ck do you mean she’s not here?
Amber
She’s not here!
Sam
I untied her. [Richie looks at Sam, shocked] Guess you’re not as persuasive as you thought.
Sam
[The phone suddenly rings. Sam gives a faint smile]
It’s for you.
Richie
[scoffs]
Yeah. Like your gimpy little sister's gonna make a difference. She’s our f***ing pincushion at this point. [he calls out to Amber] Amber, fan out! She couldn’t have gotten far!
Amber
[Amber moves through the hallway, looking around in disbelief]
I can’t find her!
[Tara suddenly jumps out and tackles Amber]
Amber
[Sidney and Gale are gaining the upper hand in their confrontation with Amber, who, covered in hand sanitizer, starts chickening out and pleading]
No, no, no, no, no, no! It's not my fault, it's not my fault!
Sidney
Let me guess, the movies made you do it?
Amber
No, no, no, it was the message boards! I was radicalized!
Gale
By movie fans?
Amber
Yes, they're so mad! Please, it's not my fault! I'm just a dumb kid, I just wanted to be a part of something!
Gale
A part of something? You killed my best friend!
Amber
[Stops cowering to taunt her]
Yeah, and he died like a pussy. [Gale punches Amber, resuming the fight. Amber gets the upper hand, choking Gale] I was the last thing Dewey saw before he died! I can't believe I get to do you both! No last-minute saves this time! Your story's over! Time to pass the torch!
Gale
It's all yours, b*tch! [Headbutts Amber and kicks her against the kitchen stove, which turns on. Gale looks at Sidney] Do you wanna do the honors?
Sidney
This one's yours.
Amber
[Sidney gives Gale a gun. Gale aims the gun at Amber, who, weapon-less, again chickens out and pleads for mercy]
No, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop! I'm sorry about Dewey!
Gale
F**k you!
Sidney
[She shoots Amber, causing her to land on the stove and be set on fire. A burning Amber screams and runs around for a few moments before collapsing to the ground]
Enjoy that torch.
Richie
[Richie is cornering Sam, who is on the ground. As Richie taunts her, unknown to him, Sam sees a vision of her father, Billy Loomis, who guides her to a knife on the ground]
What are you gonna do now, huh? Make a scary phone call to me? Pop your head out of the closet in a Ghostface mask? No. Because you're the villain! And the villain dies at the end! Those are the rules!
Sam
I'm introducing a new rule.
Richie
And what might that be, huh? [Aims his gun at Sam] Well?! [Laughs arrogantly and evilly]
Sam
Never f**k with the daughter of a serial killer.
[Hearing Sam say the rule causes Richie to frown in confusion, until Sam grabs the knife and plunges it straight into Richie's mouth. As Richie recoils from the sudden attack, dropping his gun in the process, Sam proceeds to attack him viciously, stabbing him dozens of times in the exact same manner of Ghostface stabbing a victim, all while Richie screams in pain and shock. Sam then stops stabbing and raises the knife, as Richie, his arrogant behavior now destroyed and replaced with fear, cowardly begins pleading for mercy]
Richie
[Whimpering]
WAIT! Wait! What about my ending?!
Sam
[Sam quietly places her knife next to Richie's throat] [Whispers]
Here it comes. [Slashes his throat]
Richie
[Horrified]
Aah! No!
Sidney
[Richie's throat is fully slashed, and a fatally wounded Richie only has enough time to witness Sam use her hand to clean her blood-stained knife, another Ghostface move, before ultimately dying. Sidney and Gale walk in and stand next to Sam, looking at Richie's body]
Careful. They always come back.
Gale
[Sam takes the gun from Gale and shoots Richie's body, eventually shooting him in the head, ensuring that he is dead]
Okay, then.
Tara
[Suddenly, a badly-burned and disfigured Amber, screaming loudly, runs in and desperately tries to attack the trio, only to be immediately killed by a shot to the head; Tara is revealed to be the shooter]
I still prefer The Babadook.
