1: Gale Weathers

Character: It felt wrong ranking Gale anything less than first in the original movie. This Gale set up everything Gale would become over the next 15 years. She was cutthroat, dangerous, nosey, blunt, the list of amazing words goes on. Having a ruthless reporter in the movie was genius and the way she was handled was even better. I will spoil that Gale will not rank first in all 4 movies..but she will rank high.

Survivor Potential: Like Randy, it was interesting to see Gale survive the movie. I'm glad she ended up being a hero and saved the day because she was so out for herself throughout that it showed she actually had a heart under it all..that or she just wanted to get one good shot in on Billy. Her surviving created magic through the next 3 movies to come and I cannot thank Kevin Williamson enough for not killing her off.

Victim Potential: Like Sidney, Gale is too much of a fighter to be a victim. She was going to survive and it was either going to piss people off or make them very happy. Usually the bitches in these movies bite it near the end, and especially with Gale where she sticks her nose in places it shouldn't be. Her being killed would be awful.

Killer Potential: Sure, why not. If a woman was going to be a killer in the original it would be Gale. Maybe she needed a new story, maybe she was just a bat shit loonie. Regardless if Gale had been a killer it may have worked but I'm glad they didn't go that route.

Final Verdict
Gale is a survivor. Like Sidney she has too much fight in her to be a victim, and her being a killer wasn't necessary.

The second movie, imo can be slightly overrated at times but as I love all 4 of them..I still think it's great. It's essentially a satire on sequels and how the 2nd never surpasses the original. I agree with that statement but that doesn't mean sequels suck. In this we follow Gale, Dewey, Sid and Randy, along with several new character (who while they are all good in their own way, lack some of the charm the originals had) as they fend off a new set of killers in their college town of Windsor. Some people complain about the lack of air time for the killers pre-reveal but I have no issues with it. I think all in all it's a really good movie.

14: Officer Andrews

Character: Not much to say about Andrews other than he is one of two cops protecting Sid, he is gay, and he has one of the shittier deaths in Scream 2. He isn't terrible looking and one thing I do appreciate about his death is it's sort of out of no where. He is a filler character more or less.

Survivor Potential: Considering Scream 2 had so many rando side characters, these cops needed to die. If he had survived it would have been silly and completely for no reason. Like Tatum, the cops needed to die to get Sidney alone.

Victim Potential: Yep. He was dead the moment he was assigned to Sidney. That whole, if you're gay you live through horror thing from Scream 4 is a sham. Andrews, Robbie, Ricky, David and the gays from Jeepers Creepers 2, and Mortuary ALL beg to differ. The only gay who has survived a horror movie to my knowledge is Bo from Cursed.

Killer Potential: He wasn't enough of a character to ever be the killer. Sry.

Final Verdict
I'm sure he was included as dead body fodder and to make it semi realistic that if someone was attacking Sid again they would assign her body guards to protect her. He served his purpose.

13: Officer Richards

Character: Andrew's partner who has about the same amount of character development but ranks higher because his death is one of the top in the entire series. Richards seems to be more of a hard ass than Andrews but otherwise they are pretty interchangable.

Survivor Potential: Nope. Like Andrews he is merely fodder and someone to protect Sidney. He would have no purpose in Scream 3.

Victim Potential: Again, like Andrews, he was put in the movie to add some minor realism, and then to be killed off. Thankfully he gets a painfully awesome death that I think never gets old. Sure he should have just shot at Ghostie but wtf ever.

Killer Potential: No, that was never going to happen.

Final Verdict
Richards and Andrews both played their roles to perfection. Strong, silent body guards to die trying to protect Sidney and Hallie. Done.

12: Phil Stevens

Character: What a fucking push over. Sure he gets his way on going to see Stab over some Sandra Bullock movie but wtf. Once they get into the theater, and even a little before, Maureen shits all over him and he just takes it. Also..who sticks their ear on a bathroom stall. I don't care if someone is jerking it next door and you think its funny..srsly man, it's gross..don't do that.

Survivor Potential: As an opening victim his survival was unlikely. Also he was a dumbass cheeking the bathroom stall so his lack of smarts tell us he was a victim from the start.

Victim Potential: He was literally only killed because his last name was Stevens. Him, Maureen and Cici are barely characters in the movie and while all 3 do have good scenes, they were all put in the movie to be killed. Phil did just that.

Killer Potential: No. Phil was never going to be a killer or a suspect.

Final Verdict
While Phil and Maureen don't live up to Casey and Steve, their opening is still really good. I don't think Phil as a killer or survivor could ever work obviously but as an opening victim I appreciate him. <3

11: Maureen Evans

Character: I want to love her I really do, but I don't really. She is kind of a cunt and while I do love cunts and I love a lot of the shit she screams at the theater..the Scary movie bitch WAY outdoes her. Anyway, Maureen wants to go see Sandra Bullock and Phil stands up to her one and only one time so she takes out her shit on him and the movie Stab. I think my biggest problem with her is that she says all this shit to Stab Casey and then when she hugs not Phil and gets blood on her she sits and looks at it rather than getting the fuck outta derr.

Survivor Potential: None. She was on opening victim and her theater scene death owned. Without it the movie would have some lack luster opening. Maureen was dead because her name is Maureen. No Surviving for her.

Victim Potential: This one ftw. Maureen was a walking victim. The moment we saw Phil and Maureen we knew they would meet the same fate as Casey and Steve. She got a great death though, dying along with Stab Casey in front of a public audience <3.

Killer Potential: No.

Final Verdict
Maureen was a filler character played by a semi well known actress. It didnt have the same impact as Drew as Casey but it delivered. Maureen did well as an opening victim.

10: Derek Feldman

Character: The new boyfriend. Derek was a little too nice for my liking. It would have been cool had he been a killer but at the same time, the boyfriend thing had been done. Apparently him and Hallie were supposed to be working with Ms Loomis original so I suppose it would have worked. I guess at this time in her life Sidney needed a Derek but imo she can do WAY better. I like the guy, I do, but not as much as some of the others. He would have been better with a slight edge. Singing in the caff? srsly?

Survivor Potential: Based on the way Derek was, I actually could have seen him as a survivor. Him and Sid surviving though the movie and moving on with their lived in Scream 3. Had Derek survived I think it would have worked. Of course it leaves a much bigger mark if he doesn't.

Victim Potential: Derek's death was a good one and is exactly what would have worked for Billy in Scream. Having Sidney not trust him and him dying knowing she thought he was the killer is huge. I felt bad for Derek in that moment when he was like "I...never...would have...hurt you!" and then he dies. Sidney must have been royally fucked up for that.

Killer Potential: I sort of like the idea of Derek as a killer more than I do Billy. I don't think both of them should have been killers so seeing as Billy was, I am glad Derek wasn't. I read the original script once and thought it was mostly handled well though so had he been a killer I'd be ok with it.

Final Verdict
They did the right thing imo of making Derek an innocent who Sid doesn't trust down to his final breath. It is such a sad scene seeing him die and wanting so bad to make Mickey pay and prove to Sid how much he loves her. :(

9: Cici Cooper

Character: This may offend some SMG fantards but Cici was barely a character. I loved her in the movie and I love Cici but not enough to rank her in the top 8. She was in one scene where she talks about movies with Randy and Mickey and then in her death scene. While I enjoyed her entire 10 minute or so death scene I just don't think it would be enough to push her any higher. It's unfortunate her mother named her Casey.

Survivor Potential: No. Cici was put in the movie to be killed. She was merely a way to get Sidney alone during the sorority party and she was killed because of her name. Cici wasn't a main enough character to be considered a survivor.

Victim Potential: Yes. Cici was a victim. She had a great call from Ghostface, a decent chase and a nice death that was different from many of the others. I think she served her purpose fantastically here.

Killer Potential: Not likely. Since she was completely detached from all of the main characters there was no reason to make her a killer. It was never going to happen.

Final Verdict
I think Cici has such a massive following because she is played by SMG. I love her as much as the next person but I have to detach myself from the actress and see that Cici is one of the least impactful people in the Scream movies. She did good in her death scene but that is about all I can give her.

8: Hallie McDaniel

Character: While Hallie may not hold a candle to a lot of other BFF to the final girl characters, I still love her. I felt like she was sweet and kind and would have had Sidney's back to the end of time. They could only have known each other for a year, maybe 2, and Hallie still maintained a stance close to Sid rather than fucking off like she could have. I don't care if some people think Hallie is boring. The only thing I found possibly boring about her was her death.

Survivor Potential: Nah. I would have been ok with Hallie surviving but I don't think it would have worked. Sidney needed to suffer more and for that top happen she needed to lose her best friend again. Hallie wasn't going to survive the movie whether she was just a victim or ended up a killer.

Victim Potential: I do wish Hallie had gotten a better death. She deserved it. I don't like that she just randomly gets Ghostie come up on her, stab her a couple times and then have her drop out of camera view. That said, I figured Hallie would die the moment we met her.

Killer Potential: Hallie being a killer would have added an extra layer I don't think Mickey or Ms Loomis had. While Sid and Mickey were close, the one thing I love about the original killer reveal was that Hallie and Derek were the people closest to Sid at that point and having them be the killers was good. I really think Hallie would have been more exciting as a killer.

Final Verdict
Hallie needed to die. I would have been ok with her as a killer who dies, or just being murdered. Again, my only wish is she had died better. The whole car thing was good times and then things calm and she is randomly stabbed. Sucky.

7: Dewey Riley

Character: A slightly more growed up Dewey. He is a little more mature but still semi clumsy and a doofus. Him and Gale are on and off again throughout and by the end it seems like they are finally together. I actually don't dislike Dewey so much in this one either. I'm not sure where my hate came in but I'm thinking it must have been in part 3. Although, I do think he should have died in this one.

Survivor Potential: Dewey surviving was kind of lame imo. I don't feel like there was any reason for it to happen other than him being likable I guess, and his romance with Gale. While it worked out because now he ends up being the Sheriff in part 4. It was sucky he lives.

Victim Potential: The scene with Gale and Dewey in the film wing of the college and him being killed while she is forced to watch was soooo good. it was lessened by the fact that Dewey ends up living in the end. Had he stayed dead I would say that was one of the best deaths in the series based on the emotional impact. It really worked.

Killer Potential: Ew no. Dewey, if he was going to be a killer it had to happen in the first movie. After that there is no reason to assume he is a killer. I would have been greatly disappointed.

Final Verdict
This is one of the few times I feel like they chose the wrong route. Sure, I love Gale and Dewey as a couple and their relationship in Scream 3 and 4 but imo Dewey was much better served as a victim dying when he was supposed to. Gale would have had a much better story come 3 with Dewey being killed.

6: Randy Meeks

Character: I liked Randy a lot more in Scream 2 than I did in Scream 1. I love that he grew up quite a bit between them but still maintained his nerdy charm. When he died I remember being heartbroken because it was the first of the originals to be taken out. I'm happy he made a cameo in part 3 but obviously there was nothing they could to do make him have one in part 4. RIP Randy Meeks <3

Survivor Potential: If only one of the main 4 from Scream were to die, I would have wanted it to be Dewey. Not based on preference of character but based on the impact of deaths. That said. I feel like Randy was better served not living though this. Had he I'm not sure how they could have handled in in Scream 3.

Victim Potential: Seeing Randy die was awful. It was not enjoyable to me. That said, I think it was necessary. They managed to find a way to include him in part 3 and really "the rules" are the only reason he would have been needed. Randy dying was good.

Killer Potential: If any of the originals was going to be a killer then I would say Randy is the most fitting. It could be said he was working with Billy and Stu secretly or something. I'm glad that wasn't the case as I feel Ms Loomis' story was better and that none of the survivors should end up being a killer in the next movie.

Final Verdict
Giving Randy a girlfriend is maybe the only thing I would change. He lived through the first, dies in the second and provides rules through all 3 of the originals. i think he did what he needed to do.
