Ice Nine Kills have officially joined forces with actress-singer Mckenna Grace for special new single, entitled “Twisting The Knife.”
The American horror-themed metalcore/rock band released the collaboration track on February 20, 2026 (Friday), serving as one of the original songs for the upcoming horror film Scream 7, which is set to come out in theaters on February 27, 2026 (Friday). A tribute to the Scream franchise and the director of its first four films, Wes Craven (Nightmare On Elm Street, The Hills Have Eyes), the song joins Sueco’s “Rearranging Scars,” Jessie Murph’s “Criminal” and Stella Lefty’s “The Kill” as part of Scream 7‘s soundtrack.
Notably, Mckenna Grace stars in Scream 7, marking her debut in the acclaimed franchise after starring in other horror films such as Five Nights At Freddy’s 2, Malignant, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Slanted, Amityville: The Awakening, and more. Alongside being a horror veteran, Grace is also a fan of Ice Nine Kills and recorded her parts in Ice Nine Kills vocalist Spencer Charnas’ home studio.
