Scream: Legacy

I couldn't believe this was a fan film. I heard it's from some of the same crew that did the Halloween fan film Halloween Night, so I was looking forward to checking this out and I'm glad I did!

This looks nothing like a fan film! Sure, there's a few shaky shots at times and lighting deformities, but it's not enough to ruin the movie for me. I think this crew has a bright future in filmmaking. Props to everyone involved.

Also, I won't give spoilers, but as a Scream fan I LOVED all the easter eggs and mentions throughout. It wasn't in your face, it was subtle enough that it felt real. Major props Zen House studios!

Die hard Scream fan here and been following the movie for a while. It was worth the wait! Great acting, music, cinematography!

Loved the killer reveal and ties to the original too!

I was really surprised by this being a fan made film. I watched from start to finish and eyes 👀 glued to the screen. Well maybe in the future they'll make another one.

Scream legacy is scream only in name. The reason being is all five screams are meta-slasher who Done it. This movie has no meta-references, And no discussion on who's done it, and also it has no references to other horror movies it just references the original three horror movies in the series which are scream scream 2 and scream 3. Even though scream 4 had come out it never referenced scream 4. So I don't understand why the majority of these reviews say that it is a fantastic scream movie and lives up to the franchise in the name it does not. Once again scream in name only. If you don't believe me you can watch it for yourself.

A fantastic film! Really well made fan film. Wes Craven would be proud of this. I missed the opportunity to support this project on indiegogo and I will always regret that. Film creates so much suspense, chills and thrills. The love for the material is on the screen for every bit of the runtime, making this a must see for any fan of the franchise or the genre in general.

Scream:Legacy is streaming free on Youtube as of March 25th, with a commentary companion video alongside. The film is available on blu-ray as well, contact the filmmakers via the Scream:Legacy Facebook page for details.

The film, while well-crafted, is not completely without flaws, although they are minor. The cast turns in superb performances for the most part. Although at a few points in the film, the acting seemed a bit stunted or unnatural. This is mostly on the part of the actors playing law enforcement, as their delivery seemed hackneyed at times. This may stem from some of the dialog in the film being awkward or the scene trying to shoehorn in references to the first trilogy, to cement its place in the timeline.
