Story Synopsis:
The sequel to the blockbuster hit Scream, Wes Craven

DVD Picture:
The new anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD exhibits sharp and detailed images, with greater depth and definition than rendered on the previously released, non-anamorpic version. Colors exhibit subtle refinements when compared to the previous version, with accurate fleshtones, and deep blacks. Fine details are nicely rendered throughout. There is no distracting pixelization, though a few source element artifacts are apparent.

Soundtrack:
The Dolby
