Jan 29, 2022 · Unfortunately, he doesn't share any scenes with Judy before her death in Scream 2022. In comparison, the first draft deepened his character arc; Dewey undoubtedly would have felt guilt over Judy's murder, perhaps believing her fate could have been averted had he helped sooner.

- Why Scream 2022 Killed Dewey
Nobody takes Deputy Dewey seriously in Wes Craven’s original Scream. He is undermined by his teenage sister, Tatum (Rose McGowan), and doesn’t exactly strike an imposing figure when trying to uphold the law. One of his most memorable moments is when he screams in terror after Scream's Sidney (Neve Campbell) runs into him holding a Ghostface mask. N...

Dewey rushes to Windsor College to help Sidney as soon as he learns of the new Ghostface attacks.

Jan 14, 2022 · Scream 5 had plenty of bloody and gruesome deaths, but one of Ghostface's kills was a lot more hurtful. Here's why this character had to die at all. Someone had to go.
