Scream! • Six Flags Magic Mountain

Inversions Fun

Good cobra roll and a few other loops it was fun and it was no queue plus my second floor less b&m after superman in madrid did this right after twisted colossus and held up well with other rides but I’ve not been on x2 or tatsu or Goliath but I am tomorrow

I enjoyed this ride! It's not one of the most intense old-school B&Ms and it really doesn't stand out at its park but it's still a great ride and layout! Not much else to say.

Layout Headbanging Disappointing! Discomfort

This could be a great one if it was comfortable but no, walked off this one with a major headache. Not surprising, but disappointing. 4-10-2023 Reride: I'm not sure if this has been renovated in the last year, but it seemed a lot smoother this time. Unfortunately, though, I didn't find it that great despite the enhanced comfort. Still one of the worst in the park.

Fun Disappointing!

was really exited to ride! But it was forceless... definitely still enjoyable though!

I like this ride, but it has the B&M rattle and gave some bad headbanging

Inversions Rattle

The inversions on this thing are top-notch, but the rattle. Not as bad as some other coasters I've rode, but it's made a presence since my first ride 19 years ago.

Rattle Disappointing! Dead spots

It’s just boring and straight up uncomfortable.

In terms of B&M flourless coasters, this one’s not the best. It certainly has its problems, but it’s not a bad ride. I actually think it’s smoothed out quite a bit recently, to a point where I don’t really have an issue with it. The layout is pretty cool, and you’ll enjoy yourself for sure. I think the rattle on this thing is annoying, a huge con to be completely honest. Compared to Medusa at SFDK, this thing is deafening.

Inversions Intensity Theming

First things first, this coaster is a floorless and it is a parking lot coaster. Scream as a lot of inversions and it is just a decent coaster. Nothing special.

They should rename Scream to Rattler! This B&M floor less will shake your head up. Some elements are smoother than others, and the ride has on and off days. I would recommend NOT putting your head against the headrest at all during the ride, as the vibrations coming through the train during the rough parts will rattle your brain and give you an instant, and I mean instant headache once you get off. Instead, lean your head forward out of the gap in the restraint and keep it still—it will make Scream much more enjoyable.

Personally, I don’t really mind the parking lot theming and ride i find to be pretty smooth and my last couple visits. While it’s not the best floorless coaster, I feel like it’s extremely overhated and provides some great inversions and helix’s

Inversions Rattle Disappointing! Pointless

On its own Scream is a good ride, but it just feels so pointless in a park that has so many other rides like it, and it's the least interesting of all of them. There's nothing technically wrong with it aside from a noticeable rattle, but it says nothing interesting, does nothing interesting and it just makes me wish I were anywhere other than a giant concrete slab next to a disgusting, sprawling parking lot. Twisted Colossus is also a parking lot coaster but at least it's interesting enough to help me forget that. This coaster just reminds me of everything bad about B&M's cookie-cutter floorless layouts. It's just so BORING.

Scream is a very fun floorless coaster, great inversions, a forceful helix, and nice spots of floater. The lack of theming feels like a novelty that's fun to make fun of.

Very Underrated

I don’t get why this ride gets so much hate, yes it may be a parking lot coaster but so is twisted colossus, it does have a rattle like a lot of B&M but it didn’t bother me, the second half might be a bit mild cus of the mid course breaks but it’s a good ride

Capacity Intensity

This ride gets hated on so much for its lack of theming or it being over the parking lot. If you just turn your head to right up the chain lift you get wonderful views of the whole park. I’m a sucker for the interlocking corkscrews that was very reminiscent to KUMBAS. The pain job was great and this ride had its intense moments for sure. I think this ride is a great filler for when the park is busy. When I visit again I won’t pass this up. 4/5 Amazing crowd eater

Intensity Layout

Better then I expected. Smooth and forceful. Good layout but is missing some things. Doesn’t have the near misses that bizarro has and also just isn’t appealing since it sits on a plot of asphalt.

I really need more rides on Scream. From what I remember though, it has a bad rattle and nothing about it stands out to me unlike on Medusa.

Inversions Comfort Fun

Scream is the floorless coaster I have ridden the most, and it's honestly a very good ride. The ride is smooth, its inversions are graceful and fun, and there are even some intense spots such as the helix after the MCBR. There isn't any airtime or other crazy forces, but it's still a solid ride. This is a great supporting coaster to the MM lineup and I hope it stays for the foreseeable future.

Inversions Pace Theming

The ride's layout was pretty standard but fun as all B&M coasters. It has some nice inversions and a good pace. The theming was a bit of a joke, you could call the coaster "Car park - The ride"

Inversions Layout Rattle Theming

Scream had a clear B&M rattle, but that didn't detract too much from an awesome floorless coaster. The low-to-the-ground turnaround is awesome, and the inversions are all spectacular. It's a great ride, but I will admit it is in an absolutely ugly location.

Layout Rattle Theming

Scream is almost literally a parking lot coaster, and it shows: there is absolutely no theming at all, and in my opinion it makes the coaster less enjoyable than if it was even a little bit more themed. Even worse, it had a rattle when I rode it, and I got some head banging because of it. The layout is fine though. It just didn't worked for me.

単体では大して面白くないけれど、集合していることによって意味をなしています。那須ハイランドパークのようなものです。

Even though it had that slight B&M rattle, it was still a lot of fun.

Inversions Fun Intensity

Really neat floorless coaster tucked at the very back of the park, right next to Twisted Colossus. As much as people shit on this ride for its location and (lack of) theming, people forget that this ride is literally Bizarro from Great Adventure but mirrored (a bizarro Bizarro). As a result of the undeserved reputation it's earned, it joins Viper in the "never a wait ever because no one wants to ride it" club, unless there's something wrong with the ride or something. Please don't be a theming snob, it's not worth missing out on this coaster over.

Inversions Smoothness

Scream! In any other park or location this ride would rate so much better. Decently intense for a post Y2K B&M, and actually, the unassuming "it's just a ride come and play" mentality is fun. At SFMM, it's job is to be a capacity sink, a job which it does very well. We didn't even have to get off the back row on our last visit! Anything sat next to Twisted Colossus was always going to have a tough time of it in the rankings. A bit of planting up wouldn't go amiss to dress it up a bit and give something other than the bare-concrete to look at? it is quite literally the car-park coaster. The rise of lapbar-only coasters is perhaps also starting to make B&M's older restraint designs look a little obsolescent; you never know we may see something to compete in time.
