About this deal

Scream understands exactly what, well, Scream should look like in 2022. It's very effective and quite a bit satisfying, but the film lags should please franchise fans and movie buffs in general. Paramount's UHD offers excellent video and audio presentations as well as a healthy allotment The performances are good within the new cast, but the spotlight and real heft come with the three original cast members showing up. David Arquette gives new life to a regretful and heroic Dewey whose emotions come full force when Gale comes into his life again. And Neve Campbell gives Sidney Prescott something of the Sarah Connor treatment in a certain way that she knows exactly what to do and is not afraid to step up to the plate of violence to protect her friends and herself. It was indeed a breath of fresh air. This new Scream movie is still a bit of fun that pays homage to the previous films and creates a new generation of horror fans with its iconic Ghostface Killer. It can be silly, cheesy, and redundant at times, but for the most part, this Scream film succeeds. Scream was shot on 35mm film using Panavision Cameras and Clairmont lenses. It utilised an anamorphic shooting style (using both Panavision and Clairmont-Scope processes), the beauty of which can now be seen in this newly produced native 4K presentation of the original theatrical cut, created from a brand-new restoration and new scan (although scant details on what went into this could be found).

The And after years of previous releases suffering some less than stellar transfers, this new 4K disc finally gives the film the nicely textured and organic presentation it so richly deserves. More effort on the extras front would have been nice, but with everything we would want to know about the film already available and out there, this release was all about that transfer and Paramount have well and truly delivered the goods in that department. meta-world around it is intrinsically woven into the plot, so try to avoid that eyeroll when the film opens with a nearly identical sequence compared The extras platter is included on both the 4K disc and the 1080p Blu-ray that also houses the remastered film are is made up of:Much of Scream feels like direct remake, and it's supposed to; that the film holds so many connections with the original and the larger In The Shadow of The Master (HD, 8 Mins. ) - Another set of interviews with the cast and crew that focuses on working with the late, great Wes Craven with clips of onset footage from the original films.

speak, alive. However, the film also changes things up quite a bit as well. The opening scene is in many ways a play-by-play remake of the original, A small town, a series of brutal murders of the local teenage population and a masked killer. Taken at its most basic, Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson conjured up a classic premise that works on that most base of levels. A clinically effective murder mystery, with intrigue about a past evil and sense of how this has affected the whole town, it's tightly plotted and works incredibly well. But layer on top of that, that ironic and meta-understanding of the genre and a superb set of characters that are both timeless stereotypes and beautifully subverted tropes in themselves, and the film bursts into life in a way that a decade of horror films from across the spectrum of horror never really managed and has struggled to recapture since. The beauty of Scream was always its simplicity. Never overt, fiercely intelligent with it and superbly realised, the simplicity of the film allowed everything else about it to be brought to such a vivid life that in a genre whose films tend to act as gaudy time capsules for the period they were made, Scream remains a vibrant, effective, and very modern horror film. Even after twenty-five years . Plot: What’s it about? Video: How’s it look? Audio: How’s it sound? Supplements: What are the extras? The Bottom Line Plot: What’s it about? In addition to a terrific audio commentary, there are about 30 minutes worth of extras here, mostly being EPK type of material that features the cast and crew talking about making this new movie and reminiscing about the previous films.What else can be said? Scream is now a modern classic and, fifteen years after its initial release it’s still as good as it was the first time I saw it. Yes, it’s gory and graphic but it’s supposed to be. Most of what made the original so successful was the fact that they weren’t trying to create anything new. They were taking movies and mentioning them by name and giving us the “rules” of the horror movies. They were telling us what we already knew and we LOVED it! While I wasn’t too much of a fan of the later installments, the first is certainly the best in my opinion. Isn’t it always? Video: How’s it look?

filmmakers and mostly new characters, there is a sense here of meta-understanding of the franchise and the larger world around the cinema personality to the roles; even the returning favorites sometimes feel more like pawns rather than critical pieces. All of that said, the film does work; In classic Scream fashion this film is fully self-aware. The first film was self-aware about how Horror films in general work, and this film is Bloodlines (1080p, 8:33): Exploring the connections between this film and the original, including the famous Ghostface mask, how the
