Scream films available on 4K UHD, ranked by transfer quality.

S-Tier transfer buzzing across four platforms this week. The franchise is split between Paramount and Lionsgate right now with Scream 7 and Scream 4 both announced, so collectors are budgeting for multiple labels.

Paramount's steelbook matched the style of the first film's release, which collectors appreciated. The franchise set is one of those collections where people buy all of them or none of them. S-Tier transfer and the steelbook design with Ghostface on the back connecting to Scream 1 is a nice touch.
The weakest film in the franchise but collectors buying the steelbook set need it for completion. Scream 4 was the missing piece that annoyed everyone for months, since 3 came out on 4K before 4 did, leaving a visible gap on the shelf. S-Tier transfer regardless of how you feel about the film.

Scream 4 was the missing piece in the franchise's 4K shelf and Lionsgate is closing the gap on June 9, 2026. The Lionsgate Limited steelbook went up first and sold the way Lionsgate steelbooks always sell, with no Canadian retail option and the usual import frustration. The standard slipcover edition is on Amazon for the rest of us. The 2011 master has always had a hazy, slightly washed look on Blu, so the only real question is how much cleanup the new transfer brings.
