Trivia: Wes Craven originally intended for "Shocker" to become a franchise, with Horace Pinker becoming the next big slasher-star. However, the studio wasn't happy with the film's mediocre box office returns, and a sequel was never made.

Trivia: Like other films in the series, "Scream VI" is loaded with "easter eggs" for horror fans. One extremely subtle one you may not notice... when the psychologist is attacked at his office by Ghostface, the door-knocking sound effect is actually taken directly from the 2022 slasher-movie "X," which featured "Scream VI" co-star Jenna Ortega.

Trivia: When Kirby and Mindy sit down and talk about horror movies, and Mindy alludes to the idea that some people think Stu Macher is really still alive. This is a reference to an extremely popular fan theory that Stu Macher, one of the original two "Ghostface" killers, is still alive and will return in a future film.

Trivia: After co-creator Justin Roiland was fired, it was revealed that his relationship with fellow co-creator Dan Harmon had broken down during season 2 when Harmon pushed for the show to be more ambitious. By season 3, Roiland made little creative input, was rude and inappropriate to the staff, and would often abandon work. By season 4, he would just record his lines from home and never come into work, exploiting the fact he was voicing the leads because he thought it meant he could never be fired.

Trivia: The cel-shaded CG animation lead to a lot of changes during production, especially since the show was made quickly and cel-shading was still relatively new and cutting edge at the time. Mary Jane was given a shorter hairstyle because her original longer hair had a bad tendency to glitch and "clip" through her body. Peter's clothes were made tighter because his original baggier clothes were hard to render. And Kraven's vest never quite looked right, so it was replaced with a leather jacket.

Revealing mistake: When Keyface is leading Imogen and Melissa on chains, he hits Elise, sending her through the air. When this happens, you can pretty easily see that Elise is played by a stunt-woman. You get a very quick look at her (suddenly much younger) face, and when she lands, you can see that her body is also has a slightly thicker, more toned build than Elise's actress Lin Shaye. (Slow motion helps but is not required).

Continuity mistake: When Keyface is attacking Elise, Imogen grabs the whistle out of her pocket. At one point, the way she is holding it changes instantly between cuts right before she throws it to Elise.

Trivia: Co-star Melanie Lynskey stated that the behind the scenes of the film was hostile at times. When she was cast the costume designer made the snide comment "Nobody told me there would be girls like you," and the crew would try to change the way she looked with excessive makeup and shapewear clothes. She was also constantly told that she was "not beautiful" by the costume department. This affected her so much that to this day, Lynskey makes herself available to younger castmates for help or advice.

Continuity mistake: When Melissa is attacked by Keyface, the blood on her forehead, nose and face changes slightly a few times over the course of the scene. (Likely due to it being reapplied and not quite 100% matching several times during filming).

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Keyface strikes Melissa, she bounces off the wall then starts to fall forward onto the ground face-down. However, when we cut to a closeup of her hitting the ground, she's suddenly falling backwards and lands on her back. Her entire body somehow rotated 180° instantly between cuts.

Audio problem: When Elise is investigating Ted Garza's home and begins to explain how she had seen the female ghost before, she says the line "when I was sixteen years old." However, the words and her mouth movements don't QUITE match. She appears to be saying the right words, but the audio just isn't quite lined up right, likely due to the line being re-recorded in post.

TedStixon

Audio problem: After Elise notices that Ted Garza owns a lot of her family's old belongings still, he gives an explanation about why he held onto it. In the wideshot where he's in the background, if you pay attention, much of what he says doesn't quite match his lip movements, revealing the dialogue was slightly rewritten and rerecorded in post.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Elise introduces herself, Specs and Tucker to Ted Garza, Tucker is eating an ice cream sandwich. The amount of sandwich he's eaten and the position of his hand repeatedly changes between shots.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Elise first leaves her home to travel to see Ted Garza, when it cuts from a closeup to a wideshot of her carrying her bags down the stairs, the direction she's facing and the look on her face changes subtly between shots.

TedStixon

Audio problem: When Elise is talking to Specs and Tucker about her childhood home after Ted Garza calls her, when she says the line "because I could never forget the look on my mother's face when she died!", her mouth movements don't match the audio in the slightest.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Elise is explaining to Specs and Tucket that Ted Garza lives in her childhood house, after the initial long shot of her talking, it cuts to several over-the-shoulder angles. Instantly, Elise's hands go from down on the table in front of her to up holding her face in these over-the-shoulder shots. Over the rest of the scene, her hands continue to change positions repeatedly as it cuts between the different angles.

Visible crew/equipment: When Elise is talking to Ted Garza over the phone, she walks into another room and the camera follows. As the camera goes through the doorway, you can see the shadow of the cameraman pass by on the wall next to doorway on the left side of the screen. True, Specs is following her, but you can see in the next shot that he's not close enough to her to have cast a shadow on the doorway yet.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, when young Elise is talking about the man who was executed, we see her mother standing at the kitchen sink, staring at her. In the very next shot, suddenly she's no longer standing at the sink (which is visible through a window in the wall) and instead is walking into a doorway at the other side of the kitchen. She warped about 10 feet to the left between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: This is a little hard to explain. During the Unity Day Festival, after Goblin beats up the cops, the shot cuts and he turns around to face Spider-Man, who lands in front of him. The problem? He was facing the same direction as Spider-Man in the previous shot (you can tell from the background), so it makes no sense that he has to turn around when the camera cuts.

Trivia: Originally, the war-games scene was meant to be a total bloodbath, with numerous students being shot to ribbons. But it was eventually cut down to just Shelton being killed. Series creator Don Mancini has said he believes it was changed for two reasons - first due to budgetary concerns since it'd require so many squibs and so much coordination, and second for "political correctness" reasons, since seeing dozens of kids being shot would be a little too distasteful, even for a Chucky movie.
