How many number of kills would you want in another Scream movie?

I thought 15 was way too much for Scream 4 if we're counting STAB kills. 11 would be the highest I would go with, maybe 12.

11-15.

Ideally, we'd get 10 or 11 'real' kills and 1 or 2 Stab kills. I agree that 15 (counting Stab) was WAY too high for Scream 4, but I wouldn't want Scream 5 to have a smaller bodycount than Scream 2 and Scream 3 (both had ten)

Scream 5's ideal should be 10. I don't want a whole batch of characters that only have five minutes of screentime.

Like your precious Scream 4? (troll)

9 'real' victims, 1 killer that dies, 1/2 Stab victims.

8-10

Scream's a bit more likely than other series to have people be injured and survive, so I'd guess that there would be three or likely even more additional characters, which would be enough for me.

True but I don't WANT that lol. If anything everyone should get 10-15 minutes.

Also I can't believe Derek got less than 6 minutes. O_O

Oh, oops. He's the exception. He got a little under 10 minutes but still. For a main love interest, that's pitiful lol.

I don't like Derek at all so I didn't mind not seeing him constantly though. (chew)

THIS. Derek finally only slightly annoyed me the last time I saw it.

I don't think all the characters need five minutes, but they do need enough time to be memorable, which is going to be different for each character. Some of those people had big enough personalities that the didn't need that much time. My first requirement for a Scream character is for them to get the main trio right. The next priority is foreshadowing for the killer. If that means less kills, like in the original, then I'm fine with that.

5-7. Scream is a series that, while gory, is more focused on story rather than simply killing off characters. The first one does not have very many kills, but it's still the goriest entry.
