If you live in or around the Bay Area and, like me, are a fan of low-budg horror/sci-fi pics, check out next month's Hole in the Head festival.

The annual event, part of the SFIndieFest, will host 40 global films, ranging from awesome titles like "Mutant Girl Squad" to"Satan Hates You."

(The last time I was there someone vomited two rows in front of me and STAYED.)

Hole in the Head runs July 8-29 in San Francisco.

EW is reporting that thesp Emma Roberts will play one of the heroines in Wes Craven's "Scream 4."

"I'm so excited to be part of this ground-breaking franchise," says Roberts, who most recently appeared in "Valentine's Day" and can be seen in the upcoming Schumacher pic "Twelve." "It's the perfect opportunity for me to do something completely different than I've ever done before."

The "Scream" franchise has grossed over $500 million to date and helped revitalize the suburban horror genre in the late 90s. 

Roberts joins a cast which already includes "Scream" vets Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox and David Arquette.

Dimension Films will release the horror sequel on April 15, 2011.
