10 Horror Movies With The WORST Killer Reveals
2. Scream 3 - Roman Bridger
Scream 3 is easily the worst of the otherwise consistent Scream franchise and while the other three films all have awesome reveals of the killer's identity, in this case the big reveal sucked.
The Ghostface killer here is Roman Bridger, the director of Stab 3 (a film-within-a-film based on the Ghostface murders in the prior Scream movies). Roman's an enormously uninteresting character who didn't even appear much throughout the film; in fact, some might not even recognize him when he first unmasks.
More irritatingly still, the big revelations that he's Sidney Prescott's half brother, that he's seeking revenge because their mother never acknowledged him and also encouraged the murders in the original Scream were a highly contrived and forced attempt to tie the three films together. It was just impossible to believe such a boring character caused the trilogy's events.
Frustratingly, Scream 3 originally had a far better ending. The killer would've been a large group of teenage fans of the Stab films. Unfortunately (but understandably), this story-line felt rather insensitive since it was only a year after the Columbine High School Massacre, so this ending was scrapped. Still, it would've been nice to see a better ending than this.
