Scream Kings of Horror
You've probably heard the term Scream Queen: it's a title that horror fans give to actresses who have made their mark on the horror genre (usually for flailing around, screaming). But what about the boys? Just like the ladies, Scream Kings are actors who have been influential to the horror genre. They don't have to be the main protagonist, the hero, or even particularly likable, but they do have to be thoroughly terrorized throughout the film! Are they the final girl? Do they get dismembered? Yes!
In this post, I've given each Scream King his own archetype based on the kinds of characters they tend to play and the particular brand of horror they bring to the screen. Some of them are innocent victims of their circumstances, while others are dealing with the consequences of their morally dubious decisions. These aren't exactly official horror classifications, just my own observations about what makes each actor's contributions to the genre so memorable.
Sam Neill
If the name doesn't immediately ring a bell, most people will probably recognize Sam Neill as Dr. Alan Grant from the franchise juggernaut Jurassic Park (1993), but as an actor he's more known for his psychological horror. He tends to gravitate to characters who have a particular knack for wandering straight into things that defy explanation, and the more they try to rationalize what they're experiencing, the more they lose their sanity.
In Andrzej Żuławski's Possession (1981), Neill plays Mark, a spy who returns home to West Berlin only to discover that his wife, Anna, wants to end their marriage. What begins as a bitter separation quickly spirals into a surreal nightmare of jealousy, violence, and grotesque body horror. As Mark becomes increasingly obsessed with discovering the truth behind Anna's strange behavior, his own mental state starts to deteriorate.
As its name suggests, the film's central theme explores the idea of possession: Mark is controlled and resents the government agency he works for, yet he attempts to exert that same control over Anna. There's also this hideous creature with which Anna develops a disturbing relationship, representing possession in its most literal, monstrous form. Everyone seems to want control over someone else, and as their obsessions grow, the delineation between love, ownership, and outright madness leads to their destruction. It's a very intense movie, and it's not for everyone, so watch with care.
In John Carpenter's In the Mouth of Madness (1994), Neill plays John Trent, a cynical insurance investigator hired to locate Sutter Cane (aka Stephen King), a bestselling horror novelist who has mysteriously disappeared. Initially convinced that the disappearance is nothing more than an elaborate publicity stunt, Trent follows a series of clues to Hobb's End, a supposedly fictional town featured in Cane's novels. There, he discovers that the fictitious creatures from the novels are actually very real and are transforming the people in the town into beasts. Trent desperately tries to find a rational explanation for what's happening, only to come to the conclusion that he may be nothing more than a character in Cane's latest novel.
Much like Possession, the horror comes from the loss of control. Trent believes he's the one investigating the mystery, making decisions, and uncovering the truth. Turns out, he might have been following someone else's script the entire time. By the film's conclusion, Trent has gone from a confident skeptic to a man laughing hysterically at the realization that his entire existence may be someone else's work of fiction.
Wading deeper into the madness, Neill stars in the sci-fi horror film Event Horizon (1997), playing Dr. William Weir, a scientist who joins a rescue crew investigating the mysterious reappearance of an experimental spacecraft he designed. The ship vanished seven years earlier while testing a revolutionary gravity drive, only to return with its original crew missing and evidence of unimaginable horrors aboard. The rescuers discover that the ship may have opened a gateway to a hellish dimension, bringing something unspeakably evil back with it.
Already haunted by the suicide of his wife, Weir becomes increasingly susceptible to the ship's supernatural influence, which exploits his grief and guilt through terrifying visions of his dead spouse. Soon, he completely surrenders to the malevolent force--becoming its mutilated, murderous servant--and hunts down the crew to forcibly take everyone aboard into the nightmare dimension. Once again here Neill is playing a man whose search for answers ends with him becoming the true monster everyone else is trying to escape.
What I think makes Sam Neill's Scream King archetype so interesting is that his characters aren't your typical "victim." Whether it's jealousy in Possession, or the search for truth in In the Mouth of Madness, or grief and guilt in Event Horizon, the horrors these characters encounter exploit those deep vulnerabilities and corrupt them from within, and are ultimately completely consumed. Unlike the typical horror protagonist who fights to overcome the monster, Neill's characters become an extension of it; it's not what they're running from, but what they're turning into.
Patrick Wilson
Patrick Wilson might be one of the more recognizable leading men in modern horror, thanks in large part to his work with director James Wan and his starring role as Ed Warren in The Conjuring Universe, a sprawling nine-film franchise that includes the Annabelle and The Nun spin-offs. Unlike some of the other Scream Kings in this post, Wilson's characters are usually
the ones trying to protect everyone else from the threats lurking in the shadows. He brings this distinctly paternal energy to his performances, combining that reassuring male presence with the courage of someone willing to go toe-to-toe with malevolent forces to defend the vulnerable (would your dad astral-project to The Further to fight the Darth Maul demon to get your soul back? Hm??). You just kind of want one of those fatherly shoulder-squeezes from him.
In Insidious (2010), Wilson plays Josh Lambert, a father whose son mysteriously falls into a coma while his family begins experiencing terrifying and bizarre paranormal activity in their house. With the help of a medium, Josh discovers that his son's consciousness is trapped in a supernatural realm known as The Further. He also learns that they share the ability to astral project, a gift Josh had suppressed in his childhood after attracting the attention of a malicious spirit.
In Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013), while Josh managed to bring his son home, his own soul was left trapped in The Further, allowing the murderous ghost that had haunted him since childhood to take over his body. Now, the protector becomes the predator. In a reversal of the first film, its Dalton turn to venture into The Further to rescue his father. Together, they return to their bodies, finally freeing Josh from the Bride in Black's possession.
In The Conjuring (2013), Wilson plays paranormal investigator Ed Warren alongside Vera Farmiga as his wife, Lorraine (weirdly, Josh's mother in Insidious is also named Lorraine? I don't think the movies are connected; it's just a strange similarity). Together, they investigate the haunting of the Perron family, putting themselves in danger to protect a household terrorized by a very angry witch.
You see how Wilson brings the same steady, protective energy to both characters, creating that much-needed reassuring presence as everything around him is going to hell.
When I first started putting this list together, I intended to discuss Matthew Lillard and Ethan Hawke separately, but, you know, the more I looked at their credits, the more I realized they actually share a similar Scream King archetype, just with two very different approaches.
Their most memorable horror characters are people who hide behind a mask, whether it's a violent killer concealing their identity, instilling fear, or a morally questionable protagonist masking their self-interest behind a facade. And while the latter might not be outright villains, their opportunism can cause just as much harm as the violent horrors they're facing. Lillard tends to bring that chaotic, expressive, character-actor energy to his roles, while Hawke, with his background in dramatic acting, has this more understated, deliberate (calculated?) approach.
Matthew Lillard
Probably his most iconic horror role, Lillard plays Stu Macher in Wes Craven's Scream (1996). His goofy, hyperactive energy, which he displays throughout the movie, suddenly takes on a much more manic edge after he's exposed as the Ghostface killer alongside his best friend, Billy Loomis. Stu's emotional immaturity swings from hysterically cackling to a whimpering, tearful panic of a frightened child the moment he gets fatally stabbed. His detachment to what is going on around him vanishes, and that violence he'd been treating as entertainment suddenly becomes painfully real to him as he's bleeding out.
In fan-favorite Thirteen Ghosts (2001), he plays Dennis Rafkin, a neurotic psychic who is helping the wealthy occultist Cyrus Kriticos capture a collection of violent spirits. Dennis initially seems like a shady opportunist, motivated by money and more interested in protecting himself than helping anyone else. But when Cyrus's unsuspecting family becomes trapped inside the mansion designed to imprison the ghosts, Dennis regrets his involvement and ultimately sacrifices himself to save the family. True King behavior.
Ethan Hawke
In The Black Phone (2022), Ethan Hawke plays a sadistic serial killer called "The Grabber." Much like Lillard's Stu Macher in Scream, The Grabber treats murder as a twisted form of entertainment, but Hawke's performance is far more restrained. With his face concealed behind a white devil mask, Hawke relies on subtle shifts in his body language and deliberate movement to convey a quiet menace, as the mask itself becomes an extension of his personality. But when the main character manages to remove the mask during the film's climax, his calculated composure turns into panic. Similar to Stu, when faced with his own vulnerability, the Grabber's carefully constructed persona crumbles into deep-seated shame once the barrier of the mask is gone. I really dug this movie, and the sequel is even wilder.
Hawke also has more traditional Scream King roles, portraying ethically dubious protagonists. In Sinister (2012), Hawke is Ellison Oswalt, a struggling true-crime writer desperate to recapture the success of his first bestselling book. Hoping to revive his career, Ellison moves his wife and two children into a house where an entire family was brutally murdered, conveniently neglecting to tell them about its gruesome history (whoops!). When he discovers the movie's set piece, a collection of home movies depicting several horrific murders, he becomes increasingly obsessed with uncovering the connection between them. His desperation for success ultimately blinds him to the danger he's invited into his home, and is directly responsible for his family's annihilation.
Hawke plays another unscrupulous family man in The Purge (2013), portraying James Sandin, a wealthy security-system salesman living in a dystopian America where nearly all crime, including murder, is legal for twelve hours each year. In a society where survival has essentially become a luxury, James is more than happy to capitalize on the fear of those who can afford his products, while less fortunate families are left vulnerable to the violence. It's only when that same violence targets his family by a group of masked killers that he's forced to face this reality.
It's kind of interesting that these movies were released back-to-back, because they both feature Hawke as characters who make their living by exploiting other people's tragedies. Much like Lillard's character in Thirteen Ghosts, their willingness to profit from dangerous situations makes them something of a wild card, not really grasping the consequences of their decisions until they're forced to confront them. Do they rise to the occasion like Dennis and James? Or succumb to the darkness like Ellison?
Justin Long
Ah, poor Justin Long. For an actor who got his start by playing the lovable, awkward guy in comedies like Dodgeball (2004) and Accepted (2006) (or even the very pervasive "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" ad campaign he did with Apple in the early 2000s), he's certainly endured some of the most gruesome fates in modern horror, becoming something of the genre's punching bag. There's something he brings to his particular brand of nervous, sarcastic charm that makes watching him suffer both tragic and darkly funny.
He started early with Jeepers Creepers (2001), as Darry Jenner, a college student traveling home with his sister Trish. After they are run off the road by a rusty, monstrous tow truck multiple times, Darry is compelled to follow the driver. When he sees the mysterious man dump what appear to be bodies into a drainage pipe, Darry makes the bizarre decision to slide down the pipe to investigate. Well, his curiosity is rewarded by becoming the Creeper's (a bat-like creature that awakens every 23 years to hunt humans for their body parts) next target. Despite his sister's desperate attempts to try to get to him, Darry is captured. In the final shot, we see that the Creeper has taken Darry's eyes, as the camera lingers on his eyeless, motionless corpse. Certainly makes you think twice about minding your business.
Perhaps no film better captures Long's unfortunate archetype than Kevin Smith's Tusk (2014). Long plays Wallace Bryton, an arrogant, obnoxious podcaster who travels to Canada looking for bizarre stories to exploit for his show. He meets Howard Howe, an eccentric old sailor who promises to share tales of his extraordinary adventures at sea, but has entirely different plans for Wallace. After drugging Wallace, Howard gets to work surgically transforming him into a freakish human-walrus hybrid, all while recounting a chance encounter with a walrus many years earlier that he's been desperately trying to recreate. (Hey, he did keep his promise!) By the end, Wallace has been permanently mutilated, stripped of his humanity, and condemned to live out the rest of his life a prisoner in his own body.
Ironically, in Jeepers Creepers, his character has his eyes ripped out, while in Tusk, they're just about the only human part of him left, an artifact of the man he once was.
Long's appearance in Barbarian (2022) was actually a bit of a surprise, because he appears about halfway into the runtime, when the story abruptly shifts perspective to introduce an entirely new character. He plays AJ Gilbride, a disgraced Hollywood actor who returns to Detroit to sell a rental property after being accused of sexual assault. When investigating the house, he discovers a series of disturbing underground tunnels leading from the basement (he doesn't seem to question it; AJ is just delighted to add all that extra square footage to the property's value). He soon encounters the Mother, a monstrous woman who has been imprisoned in the tunnels for decades, along with some disturbing evidence of the sexual violence that took place there.
While AJ is horrified by what he found, he doesn't seem capable of making the connection between the harm caused by his own behavior to the women in his life. Even when presented with an opportunity to redeem himself, he prioritizes his own survival, going so far as to callously sacrifice Tess (a character from Act 1) when they've been working together. He then attempts to justify his actions, insisting he had no other choice. As the title suggests, he is just one of the few barbarians in the movie.
In Drag Me to Hell (2009), Long is Clay Dalton, the boyfriend of the main character, Christine Brown, who becomes the target of a supernatural curse from an elderly woman because she denied an extension on her mortgage (kind of harsh when that lady already got two extensions and didn't pay on either of those! What was she supposed to do?!). As Christine desperately tries to escape her impending damnation, Clay remains the skeptical but devoted boyfriend, doing his best to support her through an increasingly bizarre ordeal. Welp, shouldn't have dated a banker during the 2008 housing bubble crisis, so he can only watch in horror as Christine is literally dragged into Hell before his eyes. While he wasn't personally maimed in this movie, he certainly got thoroughly traumatized. Hope he wasn't counting on her to help with their mortgage payments.
What makes Long so fun and entertaining to watch as a Scream King is that his characters don't always deserve sympathy, but they certainly are very pitiable, as there's something almost comically inevitable about his suffering. Some Kings manage to survive the monster or save the day, or at least escape with their dignity intact, but Justin Long rarely manages any of the above.
Adam Scott
Most people probably recognize Adam Scott as a comedic actor, with roles like the Derek in Step Brothers (2008) or Ben Wyatt in Parks and Recreation (2010-2015). But he has also racked up several performances in the horror genre, often bringing his signature deadpan humor to characters in ridiculous and/or terrifying situations. He's had an interesting pivot from comedy to drama that I thought was worth examining.
In the comedy-horror movie Piranha 3D (2010), he played a seismologist who survives an onslaught of prehistoric, flesh-eating fish...right up until the movie's final moments, when his Final Girl dreams are abruptly cut short. Or in Krampus (2015), he played Tom Engel, a stressed-out father trying to protect his dysfunctional family from a demonic German Christmas spirit that his son accidentally summoned (hate when that happens!). He followed that with Little Evil (2017), playing a newlywed stepfather who begins to suspect that his wife's young son might literally be the Antichrist. And in the darkly comedic The Monkey (2025), Scott's character is desperately trying to get rid of a cursed wind-up toy, but ends up passing the curse to his twin sons (Hmm, makes you wonder if Scott's greatest horror nemesis is fatherhood).
Although recently Scott has been leaning into more dramatic, psychologically demanding roles. Where I think you see this transition in his career is when he started doing more prestige television with Big Little Lies (2017-2019) and Severance (2022–present). These higher-profile dramatic performances, I would say, has influenced his Scream King persona as well, from the 'harried father battling fun horror monsters' to the 'troubled and/or depressed, pitiable man struggling with grief, family relationships, and their emotional trauma.'
This is well demonstrated well in Hokum (2026), where Scott plays Ohm Bauman, a cynical and rather unpleasant (severe understatement) novelist who travels to a remote Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes. Already barely hanging on mentally, Ohm grows increasingly disturbed by strange occurrences at the inn and local stories about a witch who supposedly haunts the property. With the line between supernatural terror and his own psychological demons blurring, Ohm has to face a horrible secret he's spent years trying to bury beneath his drinking.
Scott also brings that same vulnerability to The Whisper Man (2026) (streaming on Netflix only, sorry guys. But you can read the book!), where he plays a widowed crime novelist (again!) who has to reach out to his estranged father because his son was abducted by someone who bears a disturbing resemblance to a serial killer that his father investigated in the 90s.
So it seems that Adam Scott has left the murderous fish and demonic monkey toys for the horrors of a much more personal kind: grief, guilt, and regret.
Kyle Gallner
Kyle Gallner might not have the same name recognition as some of the other actors on this list, as he's often doing independent films, but you might have caught some of his horror features. Gallner's scream-king archetype is playing the sympathetic guy who endures all the terror of a "Final Girl," but frequently not getting the satisfaction of surviving it. Your heart just breaks for his tragic characters (I think it's partly because he has those long, deer-like eyelashes).
You might have seen him as Colin Gray, an awkward but genuinely sweet goth kid who becomes the second victim of the titular man-eating succubus in Jennifer's Body (2009). While Jennifer is often treated as little more than a pretty face and a desirable body, Colin seems genuinely interested in getting to know her as a person, rather than just another hot girl to pursue. Unfortunately, his good intentions don't save him from becoming her next meal.
That same year, he starred in The Haunting in Connecticut (2009) as Matt Campbell, a teenage cancer patient whose family moves into a former funeral home to be closer to his treatment appointments. Already battling a life-threatening illness, Matt begins experiencing terrifying supernatural visions that his family fears may be hallucinations caused by his medication. But the torment soon becomes physical, as mysterious symbols start to appear carved into his skin as a restless spirit takes possession of his body (as if battling cancer weren't enough).
He followed that up by playing Quentin Smith, a shy, anxious teenager desperately trying to stay awake long enough to survive Freddy Krueger in the remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010). Quentin has a longtime crush on the film's main character, Nancy, and the two eventually discover that they played an unwitting role in Freddy's origin story, making them targets of his deadly nightmares. Despite his own terrifying experiences, Quentin repeatedly risks his life to protect her.
You see this same impulse in Smile (2022), where Gallner is Joel, the ex-boyfriend of the main character, Rose, who finds herself terrorized by a sinister smiling entity that takes the form of people around her. Despite what happened between them in the past, Joel still cares for her and tries to help as she begins to become more and more detached from reality. Unfortunately, his efforts aren't enough. It ends with Rose taking her own life in front of Joel, passing the entity's curse on to him (which the poor man carries into the sequel).
Even in Kevin Smith's Red State (2011), Gallner plays a character who tries to do the right thing. After being kidnapped by a fanatical religious group and witnessing his friends' deaths, Jarod has a chance to escape but instead chooses to help protect the cult's young children when a shootout with federal agents breaks out. Unfortunately, his good intentions get him killed in the crossfire, making him yet another sympathetic character to meet a tragic end.
As Gallner has gotten older, his Scream King persona has changed a bit. He's no longer that shy, awkward teenager who wears his heart on their sleeve. These days, he's more likely to play greasy, abrasive, or downright suspicious characters who aren't nearly as easy to root for (but you kind of do anyway?). In Scream (2022), he plays Vince Schneider, a creepy, confrontational guy who seems like an obvious Ghostface suspect, especially once his family connection to one of the original Ghostface killers comes to light (Stu? Is that you?). But of course, he's just one of the many classic Scream red herrings and quickly dies at the hand of Ghostface.
But beneath the rough exteriors of Gallner's more recent horror-thriller characters, there's still something very human. In Mother, May I? (2023), he plays Emmett, a man whose unresolved childhood trauma complicates his relationship with his fiancée. In The Passenger (2023), he takes that abrasiveness much further as Benson, a violent, deeply troubled fast-food worker who goes on a murderous rampage but also develops a strangely sincere desire to help his timid coworker stand up for himself. And in Strange Darling (2024), Gallner once again plays with the audience's assumptions about who is dangerous and who deserves our sympathy as he gets in a cat-and-mouse game with a serial killer.
These characters aren't necessarily innocent, and their actions aren't always defensible. But Gallner has this excellent way of making even his most unpleasant characters feel like real, relatable people that you'd like to see come out on the other side.
Devon Sawa
Devon Sawa's name might not ring a bell with younger folks, but back in the 1990s, he was a card-carrying member of the teen heartthrob club, alongside the likes of Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Matthew Lawrence, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Freddie Prinze Jr. For many young girls, seeing Sawa appear as the human form of everyone's favorite friendly ghost in Casper (1995) was a truly transformative experience.
His most well-known horror role is undoubtedly Final Destination (2000). He plays Alex Browning, a high school student who has a terrifying premonition that the plane he and his classmates are about to board will explode. After causing a commotion, Alex and several others are removed from the flight, narrowly escaping death when the plane explodes just as he predicted...though Death doesn't appreciate being cheated. One by one, the survivors begin dying in increasingly wild and elaborate "accidents" that have traumatized Millennials for decades (no one can look at a logging truck the same). Like Joel in Smile (2022), fate eventually catches up with Alex and dies early into the sequel.
Unlike Gallner, however, Sawa plays the Scream King archetype who isn't particularly sympathetic. In the horror-comedy Idle Hands (1999), he plays Anton, a lazy, unmotivated teenager whose right hand becomes possessed by a murderous force, leaving him desperately trying to stop his own appendage from killing everyone around him. Playing off the old saying "idle hands are the devil's playthings," the film gives us a slacker who's so uninterested in everything around him that it's hard to feel particularly invested in his predicament, either. Or take his character in The Fanatic (2019), Hunter Dunbar, a Hollywood actor who finds himself terrorized by an obsessive fan. Despite being the victim, Dunbar is so unpleasant and arrogant that you're more likely to feel bad for his stalker: a socially isolated man with developmental disabilities who struggles to understand boundaries.
He plays a similarly abrasive character in Heart Eyes (2025) as Detective Zeke Hobbs, an arrogant, hard-nosed cop investigating a string of Valentine's Day murders. Kind of going for that Scream angle, the film presents a lineup of suspicious characters who could be the killer, only to eliminate its red herrings in increasingly brutal ways, including Sawa. It's the same for his characters in the anthology horror TV series Chucky (2021–2024), where he seems to exist solely to meet increasingly gruesome ends. In the first season, Sawa plays both Lucas Wheeler, an abusive, alcoholic father who gets electrocuted by Chucky, and his twin brother Logan, a controlling father who pushes his son to excel at everything, only to be bludgeoned to death by that same son after Chucky manipulates him into committing murder. In season two, Sawa returns as Father Bryce, the strict, self-righteous headmaster of a Catholic boarding school who quite literally explodes after Chucky possesses him during an exorcism. And in season three, he plays President James Collins, who comes to an end with Chucky gouging out his eyes. Apparently, the show's creators just can't resist finding new and creative ways to kill him.
In Consumed (2024), Sawa plays Quinn, a grieving father whose obsession with hunting a skin-stealing monster that killed his daughter has, ahem, consumed him. He's so determined to get revenge that he's resorted to trapping unsuspecting campers and using them as bait to lure the creature out. Like Sam Neill, Sawa demonstrates that Scream Kings don't always overcome the horror; rather, they become an extension of it and inflict it on others.
Dylan Minnette
Probably best known for playing Clay Jensen in Netflix's 13 Reasons Why (2017), Dylan Minnette often plays the seemingly innocent boy-next-door archetype who keeps finding themselves in situations that go from bad to insane. While his horror résumé might not be as extensive as some of the other actors on this list (he is the youngest actor, to be fair; he's just 29), I think he's a strong contender, as he's already endured enough gruesome encounters to establish himself as a promising Scream King in the making.
He got an early taste of death when a young vampire dismembered him in Let Me In, opens a new window (2010), opens a new window, before playing the frightened son of Hugh Jackman's increasingly murderous character in the dark thriller Prisoners (2013). In Goosebumps (2015), he played Zach Cooper, a teenager who accidentally unleashes the monsters from R. L. Stine's books upon his town, leaving him scrambling to survive a parade of literary nightmares.
Don't Breathe (2016) is where Minnette earned his first real Scream King notch in his belt. He plays Alex, a reluctant accomplice to two friends who decide to rob a blind man living alone in a deserted Detroit neighborhood. What sounds like an easy smash-and-grab quickly becomes a nightmare when they discover their intended victim is highly dangerous rather than the defenseless old man they were expecting. Alex is arguably the most sympathetic of the three burglars, repeatedly questioning their decisions and trying to protect his friends as they desperately search for a way out. Unfortunately, just as he was about to escape through the front door, Alex is shot.
In The Open House (2018), Minnette plays Logan Wallace, a teenager who moves with his mother into a secluded mountain home after the sudden death of his father. Still grieving their loss, the two begin experiencing increasingly disturbing occurrences around the house, eventually discovering that someone has been secretly watching and tormenting them. This movie is kind of like The Strangers (2008), where the real horror is how senseless it all is? Logan and his mother haven't done anything to provoke their attacker, nor do they have any connection to him. They're simply unfortunate enough to become the targets of a faceless killer who brutally murders them both. No motive, no explanation, no catharsis.
Minnette bleached his hair and joined Kyle Gallner in getting killed in Scream (2022), playing Wes Hicks: the cautious, somewhat awkward son of Woodsboro's sheriff, Judy Hicks (she's from Scream 4 and 5). Having grown up in a town notorious for its Ghostface murders, Wes takes the latest killing spree seriously, urging his friends to take precautions even as they tease him for being overly paranoid. Well this is Scream, so all that caution does little to save him or his mother, who are both brutally murdered by Ghostface in their own home (Weirdly similar scenario to the Open House movie).
And according to his production page on IMDb, it looks like he's in an upcoming movie called 4 X 4: The Event, a horror-thriller about eight contestants forced to compete in a deadly livestream where they must kill or be killed using weapons viewers order for them online. Based on his previous character track record, I imagine his odds of survival are very low.
Even more Kings
There are so many Scream Kings worth celebrating, but I narrowed it down to these nine actors, mostly because I had more to say about their work in the horror genre. For those who didn't make the cut, check out this runner-up Scream Kings movie list, featuring the honorable mentions.
