Popcorn Buckets That Didn't Sell
Description
The Scary Movie marketing team dropped wild, buzz-generating stunts — a bong-shaped popcorn bucket and a glow-in-the-dark retro phone bucket — both designed purely to shock and excite fans, not for sale. While the internet erupted in hype, fans were left disappointed when Paramount confirmed these were exclusive fan giveaways, not general merchandise. In the U.S., the only official item is a Ghost Face drink cup at AMC Theatres; internationally, markets like France and Germany offer plain popcorn tins. Clever marketing, but the merch? A little less outrageous than promised.
