Ive heard this s**t before! Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) tells Roman as he explains his diabolical scheme to her. You know what? The audience has to. In every Scream film, the killer is always the person with some personal link to Sidney, whether its her psycho boyfriend or her psycho boyfriends mother. In Scream 3, it makes sense that the villain should be her hitherto unmentioned half-brother, whos decided to carve up the supporting cast for oh some reason or other. Romans plans are more elaborate than those of his predecessors, though. Not only was he found dead earlier in the film (Courteney Cox checked his pulse, just to be sure), but he made sure to trap Sidney in a mansion with revolving walls and one-way mirrors. Wonder which episode of Scooby Doo they stole that one from.
