Goddammit man. I haven't reached for the tracking knob in 20 years and there I was like freakin Pavlov's dog about to do it again. Well done.

I love edits like this. You can tell Neglify clearly has an appreciation for the source material and this is not just an attempt to make a bad film better, but an attempt to reinterpret an already good movie. Starting points like this make for the best fanedits.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a big horror movie buff, but I am a big fan of intelligently written films and Scream is certainly one of them. Scream bleeds the post-modern self-referential aesthetic of the mid to late 90s and holds up to this day. I haven't watched it in at least 10 years, so this was a great opportunity to do so.

Neglify's edit is a lot of fun. The added score, the overall feel, the additional scenes, everything about this edit worked great. It's an original, creative idea and Neglify clearly has the technical prowess to pull it off.

AV Quality: 10/10
Delightfully abysmal.

Visual Editing: 10/10
My eyes. The goggles do nothing.

Audio Editing: 10/10
I love 70s prog. Music to my ears. Could've been even louder.

Narrative: 10/10
The added back story made the movie even better. Also, boobs.

Enjoyment: 8/10
A great way to tell the story and highly enjoyable but I think it would be much better appreciated by horror movie buffs than someone like myself. Highly recommended for any horror movie fans or even just fans of original, innovative fanedits.
