It seems that we may not have seen the last of the Scream franchise. Series creator Wes Craven, in an interview with Movieweb, revealed "The odds are that there will be (a Scream 5). It is something that Bob Weinstein wants to do. He tends to do what he wants to do". He added: "So I am inclined to think that there will be (another sequel). Whether I will be a part of it or not? I don't know. My contract gives me the first look."If they show me something that is really wonderful? Of course I will be a part of it."

Whether or not we need another instalment of the long-running horror series is up for debate. The movies have built up a dedicated following over the years, due mainly to their subversive take on the horror genre. However with Scream 4 being released to middling reviews and box office, as well as tying up most of the series' loose ends, it appeared that it had run it's course. With most of the residents of Woodsboro dead at this stage (at least the best looking ones), perhaps the franchise should go the same way, or at least wait a few years before making the inevitable reboot. 5cream anyone?
