      WSR Narrative Review
    Special Notes:
    Also available individually.

    Story Synopsis:
    Already a cult classic, Scream tells the horrifying tale about a serial killer in a quite community. The emotionally disturbed Sidney (Neve Campbell) and a group of friends rally to unlock the deadly secret behind the double murder of a high school couple. A sizzling cast including Courteney Cox, Skeet Ulrich, David Arquette and Drew Barrymore

    DVD Picture:
    The non-anamorphic 2.35:1 DVD exhibits the same image quality as the previously released DVDs. Images are generally sharp with some scenes nicely detailed, though aliasing problems that shimmer throughout the film are bothersome, and pixelization is apparent. Colors are nicely balanced throughout. Though the previous discs earned higher scores, this DVD is not up to par with today

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #128 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it gets to the details I'm really interested in knowing. It doesn't beat around the bush. I love the DVD reviews and the insightful articles. Besides insightful, WSR seems to be able to put into print some of the latest breaking news in this ever-changing industry within weeks, if not days, of the original release of the news. And last but not least, I have access to the subscription website.
