Looks splendid in 4K! Massive improvement over the old blu-ray releases.

The 90's classic; often imitated but never duplicated. This is a huge upgrade over the blu ray version which featured all kinds of color/grain problems and this 4k version fixes all that and a much better sound.

After years of this movie being on DVD and other Blu-ray releases, we finally get an Ultra HD 4K version Steelbook edition! This is a great edition to any movie collector/steelbook collector's library! The movie looks and sounds great as it has not been before. Playing it back on the Sony 4K player and 4K TV is fantastic. Menu looks good and easy selections for all. I look forward to the other 3 movies in the franchise. Well done!

I wished I'd have just ordered this through Amazon because it took best buy 3 tries to get me a good copy, and this one still had a few marks on but still glad I finally was able to aquire one.

I love Scream So much I hope they make Scream 2,3&4 on 4K soon because I really want to complete my scream 4K set with the others

Love my 4K Steelbook, no dents, no scratches, and no broken pieces exactly what i wanted, the movie itself is awesome!!! Love it!!

The 4K release of Wes Craven’s Scream finally gives this modern slasher classic the visual respect it deserves. This is a film born on 35mm with texture, grain, and that late-90s cinematic chill in the air — and the new transfer preserves that identity instead of scrubbing it away. Video Quality • Resolution: 2160p (4K) with HDR10, and Dolby Vision on supporting players/TVs • Transfer Source: New 4K scan of the original camera negative The image is significantly sharper and more nuanced than the old Blu-ray. Skin textures, fabric, and background details that were once mushy or flat are now clear and natural. Grain is present but well-behaved — it feels like film, not noise. Dark scenes (like the opening farmhouse and the party finale) gain depth and shadow detail, and highlights (flashlights, reflections, blood glint…) have more contrast without blowing out. Colors are more authentic to the theatrical look: reds are deeper, daylight scenes look more “real” and less video-ish than past releases. Nothing about this looks overly processed. It feels like getting Scream back in its original theatrical soul. Audio Quality • Primary Track: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 (lossless) This is the same foundational mix carried forward from previous higher-quality releases, but it still holds up wonderfully. Dialog is clean, Marco Beltrami’s score swells and cuts just where it should, and the jump-scare stings still do their wicked job. Surrounds aren’t overly flashy — they’re atmospheric. Crickets, telephones, and off-screen footsteps form a soundstage that keeps you just uneasy enough. Bass isn’t heavy, but attacks and crashes have more impact than the Blu-ray. No Dolby Atmos here, but the 5.1 mix doesn’t feel lacking — it’s true to the film’s original sound design.

The original scream is still the best suspense film in the industry. The new remaster gives me more insight on the scene yet still not ready for the jump Scares.

So stoked to finally have this classic on 4K UHD! It looks and sounds better than ever. Now that this and part 2 have been released, I hope the rest are soon to come as well.

Saw this movie in theaters when it came out. Definitely looks better in 4k

While Wes Craven’s Scream is a horror classic that shaped the genre becoming a cultural icon, the 2011 blu-ray release is notoriously known for its heavy DNR, smooth and waxy faces, and low bar audio. Ten years later, the slasher flick is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a brand new 4K remaster. Expectations were notably high, and this disc slashes the competition to bloody bits. The 1996 film has never looked this good before. Gone is the DNR wax, absent are the smoothened out wax covered textures, and in comes a grain heavy, sharpened and brightly textured quality that brings greater detail. One would almost think the high quality of this transfer is as if Scream was made today. This also comes with new retrospective features that look back on the franchise and looks ahead to the future with its upcoming fifth installment.

Fun movie that’s a classic. Looks great on 4k! Wes craven knows how to make a great stab flick!

Amazing picture quality. I have never seen this film look so good! I also enjoy the new interviews with cast and crew. Looking forward to the rest of the series in 4K.

I'm glad I caught this before Scream 2022. This is a new transfer compared to the 2011 Blu-ray where it seems a lot of artificial post processing was added. Here you get a natural looking image with great colors and natural skin tones thanks to DV. Comparisons available at caps-a-holic for those interested. In the past studios would include UHD, HD and digital 4K copies but for this particular release the 1080P HD Blu-ray was missing as listed in packaging. Something to keep in mind for those aiming to future proof their library and have yet to purchase a UHD player.

Excellent 4K presentation of this classic slasher! Scream has never looked better, this is without a doubt the definitive home video release!

Looks so good you'd think this was filmed within the last year!

Huge fan of scream, got this specifically to get signed by the scream cast at monsterpalooza! Amazing

At the time didn’t have this on dvd I got this right away because it was a really good price!

This is my fourth or fifth copy so far. Hahahahaha

Best looking Scream Steelbook dark and to the point
