Scream 3 is the final installment in scream
trilogy.The film stars Neve Campbell, David Arquette and Courteney Cox Arquette,
each reprising their roles from the first two films. This is the only part of
the Scream trilogy not to be written by Kevin Williamson, as he was busy working
on his short-lived television series Wasteland. Newcomer Ehren Kruger (writer

the script based on notes Williamson himself had sketched out.

Plot
Having experienced the trauma of the first two pictures, Campbell's Sidney Prescott character now lives in a secluded area of California where she works as a women's crisis counselor from her home. Her home has a security gate around it and she is now practicly an agoraphobe only leaving her house to walk her pet Golden Retriever (Which she most likely has to act as a guard dog.). Her whereabouts are unknown even to her surviving friends (save for Dewey, played by Arquette, and her father.). Gale Weathers (Cox) has become a largely successful news reporter (of a sensationalist style), thanks to the books she wrote revolving around the murders of the first two films (and subsequent films based on the books).
The film begins when Cotton Weary (Liev Schreiber), the man long-ago suspected of killing Sidney's mother, is slaughtered (along with his girlfriend). Suspected of being related to the original killings, Los Angeles police detectives (led by Mark Kincaid, played by Patrick Dempsey) inform Gale Weathers of Weary's murder, asking if she may know anything about a picture found at the murder scene. When she identifies it as a picture of Maureen Prescott, Sidney's mother, it becomes apparent the killings are linked to her murder.
Meanwhile, Weathers visits the set of the latest film in the Stab series, Stab 3: Return to Woodsboro. There she discovers a set that looks identical to the scene of the horrific "real" events that plagued her in the first Scream film. The visit also provides Weathers with the opportunity to meet director Roman Bridger (Scott Foley) and the various performers who are portraying the real-life people she knew or knows: Angelina Tyler (Emily Mortimer) as "Sidney", Sarah Darling (Jenny McCarthy) as "Candy", Tom Prinze (Matt Keeslar) as "Dewey", Jennifer Jolie (Parker Posey) as "Gale", and Tyson Fox (Deon Richmond) as "a Randy Meeks substitute: Ricky Marks".
Soon, these actors are systematically killed off in the same order as they are slated to be murdered in the Stab 3 script. Sidney is brought in to help unravel who is behind these killings, but she is barely holding onto her own sanity because of the trauma of past events.
It turns out that Roman (who had faked his own murder) is the killer known as Ghostface, the connection being that he is the son of Sidney's mother (her half-brother). He was born as the result of Sidney's mother being raped during her stint as a B-list movie actress in Hollywood. Gale and her movie counterpart discovered Sid's mother's acting career, which brought forth somewhat of a short-lived friendship, as fake Gale was killed towards the end. Roman tells Sidney that her mother left her father and cheated on him with Hank Loomis, causing Mrs. Loomis to leave her husband. So Roman told Billy Loomis why his mother had left his father, and told him to kill Maureen. Roman also told Billy to have an accomplice that was weak and easily willing to help him out, which turned out to be Stu Macher. Eventually, when Sidney confronts Roman, she "kills" him by shooting him with a gun she sneaked in, but he was wearing a bullet-proof vest. He manages to shoot her in the heart, but she was also wearing a bullet-proof vest (one from the police station), and kills him. As usual, Roman, being the main villain, wasn't really dead and Dewey kills him for real after being told (by Sidney, the only one who knew of Roman's bulletproof vest) to shoot Roman in the head.
