Directed by suspense master and director of the first trilogy, Wes Craven, SCREAM 4 is the newest installment in the acclaimed franchise that ushered in a new wave of horror in the 1990s.

Unfortunately Sidney’s appearance also brings about the return of Ghost Face, putting Sidney, Gale, and Dewey, along with Jill, her friends (Hayden Panettiere, Rory Culkin) and the whole town of Woodsboro in danger.

The SCREAM 4 Blu-ray™/DVD Combo Pack and DVD bonus features include a “The Making of Scream 4” featurette; an Alternate Opening; an Extended Ending; Deleted and Extended Scenes; and a Gag Reel. Note: Special features are subject to change.

Thanks for the info, Bo.

Now... Did anyone actually go see this?

[Creamy Goodness]

I did. And I actually liked it quite a bit, but felt like it should have ended before it actually did. That statement makes more sense after you've seen the film. It's like...they made this huge deal about there being new rules and everything. And they completely have the chance to shake things up and take the franchise in a new direction, but what do they do? Steer it right back on track to be just another Scream sequel featuring all the same characters. It's a little disappointing, but still entertaining.

[DragonBlues]

Cool. So not a complete waste of a rental, then. The Scream movies are not ones I have collected. And as a matter of fact, I've not even seen the third one. Is it a necessary view before seeing the fourth? (this should be an odder question than it actually is, but I've learned with horror franchises that it's not always a big deal to skip movies).

[Creamy Goodness]

Uhhh. Not really. I think if you've seen the first two, then you'll be fine. Scream 3 is kind of a guilty pleasure, but the ending is really ridiculous in a not-so-good way. You should be good though.

LOL Thanks, Chris!
