Scream (also informally known as Scream 5) is a 2022 American slasher film directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett and written by James Vanderbilt and Guy Busick. It is the fifth installment in the Scream film series. Though billed as a relaunch of the film series, the film is a direct sequel to Scream 4 (2011), and the first in the series not to be directed by Wes Craven. The film is dedicated to Craven at the beginning of the closing credits. The film stars franchise veterans David Arquette, Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and newcomers Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, Jack Quaid, Dylan Minnette, Mason Gooding, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Mikey Madison, and Sonia Ben Ammar, with Marley Shelton, Skeet Ulrich, Heather Matarazzo, and Roger L. Jackson reprising their roles from previous installments. In this film, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past.

Belle (Ryu to Sobakasu no Hime, literally “The Dragon and The Freckled Princess”) is a 2021 Japanese animated science fantasy film written and directed by Mamoru Hosoda and produced by Studio Chizu. It is based on and inspired by the 1756 French fairy tale Beauty and the Beast by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont.

Next week sees the release of: The King’s Daughter, Redeeming Love, The Tiger Rising, Warhunt, and a plethora of other films. Find my predictions on these releases in the weekly The Bottom Line column. A preview: Spider-Man: No Way Home will be Number One at the box office for a fifth week.
