The police are always off track with this shit! If they'd watch Prom Night, they'd save time! There's a formula to it. A very simple formula! EVERYBODY'S A SUSPECT!
― Randy

Randy Meeks is a main character in Scream (1996) and Scream 2 (1997). He is the original film geek and audience surrogate character. He is also the self-declared "love slave" to main character, Sidney Prescott.

After surviving being shot by Billy Loomis, Randy is murdered by his mother, Nancy Loomis in Joel's news van for insulting her son. However, Randy was never a target for Nancy, it was actually Gale Weathers, but she improvised.

Before his death at Windsor, he recorded a warning tape to Sidney, which is seen in Scream 3. His younger sister, Martha created a memorial theatre in his memory, with a shrine of his face, and a painting. This is seen when Sam Carpenter arranges for a get together at Martha's house, where his niece and nephew also live.

Scream[]

In Scream he works in a video store and is a student of Woodsboro High. He was best friends with Sidney, Billy, Stu and Tatum. He seemed to be the smartest, because of certain "rules" he believed, he had to follow in order to stay alive. He repeated the rules to a public crowd and discussed them with Stu and later with Billy. He came to the rightful conclusion, that, according to the rules, Billy had to be the killer, which was later proven right.

He was present in the showdown in Stu's house, where, again, he boasted about his knowledge concerning horror movies the rules needed to survive in a horror movie to the people watching Halloween. There he was shot in his right shoulder by Billy Loomis and survived. He saw his rules confirmed, because, in his point of view, he survived because he still was a virgin. He also warned, that according to the rules, Billy would return for a last murder attempt. Prepared, Sidney shoots Billy in the head, killing him when he was about to act accordingly. Later he helped Sidney free her father Neil, who had been held prisoner in Stu´s house.

Scream 2[]

Randy Meeks2

In Scream 2 Randy is in college together with Sydney and attends film classes. When Ghostface returns, he becomes very nervous, because he has become a target of him, too, but still he, Sid, Gale and Dewey reunite to deal with him.

He died while insulting the deceased Billy Loomis to Ghostface, which was later revealed as being Mrs. Loomis in the Father Death costume.

Scream 3[]

Randy Meeks3

In Scream 3 it is revealed that his younger sister Martha has a video that Randy has filmed. He sees this video as his legacy, should he not survive the second killing spree and a third one should occur. He warns, if an unsuspected background appears in this third killing spree, then the third killing spree would be the finishing part of a trilogy, where all previous rules would no longer function. The killing sprees would not appear as they originally seem to be and that Sid would have to face her past in ways she would never suspect. He wishes good luck and hopes Sidney will survive it, even if the rules indicate otherwise.

His video helps them all prepare against the killer.

Scream (2022)[]

Randy's younger sister, Martha Meeks, has since had twins, Mindy Meeks and Chad Meeks, whom are now teenagers that attend Woodsboro High School. Once the third attack spree starts, Mindy suggest meeting at her place to discuss the events. In her house, there are shrine dedicated to their deceased uncle, Randy, and it is clear his knowledge on horror films and surviving them is passed onto his niece, Mindy.

After the party was over, Mindy continues to watch TV. She is watching Stab and the part where her uncle was almost attacked while watching TV himself after the party was over. The killer was actually coming to kill her in real like just like Randy. Unlike her uncle, she actually turns around in enough time to realize she is about to be attacked like her uncle Randy was. She gets stabbed and goes unconscious, but survives (as well as her twin, Chad), just like her uncle did in the original murder spree.
