On the fifteenth anniversary of the Woodsboro massacre by Billy Loomis and Stu Macher, high school students Jenny Randall (Aimee Teegarden) and Marnie Cooper (Brittany Robertson) are attacked and brutally killed by a new Ghostface.
The following day, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) returns to Woodsboro to promote her new book and becomes a suspect in the murders, with evidence in her rental car, forced by Dewey Riley (David Arquette) to stay in Woodsboro until the crime is solved. While in town, she stays with her aunt Kate Roberts (Mary McDonnell) and cousin Jill (Emma Roberts), who is dealing with the betrayal of her ex-boyfriend Trevor Sheldon (Nico Tortorella). The attacks continue, taking the lives of Jill's friend Olivia Morris (Marielle Jaffe), Sidney's publicist Rebecca Walters (Alison Brie), deputies Anthony Perkins (Anthony Anderson) and Ross Hoss (Adam Brody), and badly injuring Gale Weathers Riley (Courteney Cox).
During a gathering at Jill's friend Kirby Reed's (Hayden Panettiere) home, Ghostface strikes, killing Robbie Mercer (Erik Knudsen) while Sidney arrives to try and save Jill and Kirby. After Kirby is forced to answer horror film trivia questions to spare the life of Charlie Walker (Rory Culkin), he reveals himself as the killer and stabs her in the stomach, leaving her for dead. Charlie and his accomplice, revealed as Jill, capture Sidney and reveal their plan to recreate the original Woodsboro massacre and frame Trevor, to become the new "Sidney" and "Randy Meeks". Jill executes Trevor but also betrays and murders Charlie before stabbing Sidney, apparently to death. Jill then intentionally harms herself to appear the "lone survivor" of the new massacre. After being found and taken to hospital, Jill learns that Sidney has survived her wounds and attempts to finish her off but, with intervention from Gale, Dewey and Judy Hicks (Marley Shelton), Sidney electrocutes and then shoots Jill in the chest, killing her.
