Scream VI is the movie of the year. Sunday night, the latest entry in the slasher franchise walked away with the top award at the MTV Movie and TV Awards, with Ghostface appearing at the awards show to pick up the trophy. It was a horror-heavy year with Scream VI besting fellow horror flicks Nope and Smile. Other nominees in the Best Movie category included Avatar: The Way of Water, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Elvis, and Top Gun: Maverick.
The film won a second award in the Best Fight category for its rough-and-tumble sequence between Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) and Ghostface.

While there hasn't been an official confirmation that another sequel is in the works, the record-setting Scream VI box office is a good indication for more films to take place in the franchise. If there is one, Radio Silence collective members Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin are hoping to be the ones in the director's chairs at least one more time.
The horror sequel Scream VI is a hit with the MTV crowd, as the film just won the Best Movie award at this year's MTV Movie & TV Awards. Released in theaters in March, Scream VI is the first film in the series to go without an appearance from Neve Campbell, focusing primarily on the younger cast of characters established in the previous Scream. It was pretty well received by fans and critics, and better yet for the film, it set the new record as the highest-grossing installment of the Screamfranchise. To accept the Best Movie award, the latest achievement for the franchise, was none other than Ghostface, with the masked killer appearing in a pre-recorded message with the new golden popcorn.
Gale vs. Ghostface Wins Best Fight
Earlier in the night, the fight sequence between Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) and Ghostfacein Scream VI also won the award for Best Fight. Similarly, Ghostface had appeared in a video to address the win. The masked killer laments that Gale couldn't be there to also accept the award, but there's a tease that the reporter will still ultimately get what's coming to her.
