This was one of my favorite rides at Magic Mountain, it was seemingly more intense than bizarro at sfga. Only goliath, X2, and viper were better. - Steven D

This ride is perfect. Even though you can see it in the parking lot, and there are flags of scream by collosus, the line is usually no more than 10 minutes. It is an awesome ride and is a must ride for sfmm. - Josh Hunt

Scream is my 5th favorite ride at SFMM (It was a toss up between Goliath and Scream for 4th favorite and Goliath beat it because of the height of the drop and the 4G turn). Anyway, not bad for a sit down roller coaster that will leave your legs dangling after the ride is over. With its speed and turns and twists at the apex of the uphills, you may need a chiropractor after words to make sure your neck is properly aligned after the ride. Definitely worth going on for thrill seekers. - D.S. Francisco

Parking Lot The Ride is fun !!!!! never a line !!!!!!!! - nick .

Look i love this ride, its one of my favorites, but the lack of theme really leaves me scratching my head at the end of the ride. it makes me laugh that the parking spaces are still there =) Wat i think is that they should make this ride into a Bizarro ride like da one at SFGA! - isaiah mercado

I don't understand why people are always complaining about the scenery, isn't it the RIDE that counts? You're going so fast you can't even tell what's going on. Anyway, I love this ride anyway, its goes fast and the cobra roll is AWESOME!!! - Sierra J

The ride is great, but the themeing is so lame. I mean, its like litterally in the parking lot! But the ride itself is awesome. Its one of my favorites. - Chloe !

SCREAM!!!!! This ride is great at night. Good amount of twists and loops. This ride is actually a clone of MEDUSA at SFGA in NJ, but thats not a bad thing, its actually great! My only real complaint is where the.........is the themeing on this ride? It has the absolute worst ive ever seen, I mean seriously, cover up the parking spaces you morons!!! SCREAM gets an unfortionat {all because of themeing} a 6/10... - Mateo sams

Scream is a great ride to do any time of the day. There is never a line for it(except for the front row) and its an outstanding ride. The floorless effect gives you an awesome feeling. i also comment on how smooth the ride is.(I was told by a friend that the piece of track right before the first loop is a little bumbpy because it was dropped in construction. you don't realise it if you don't know). i absolutely luv Scream! 10/10 - Timothy Berg

The floorless effect of the ride is fun, but only works in the front row. During the day, it can be a bit on the forceless side, but it really shines at night. Something about the temperature change creates a much more exciting ride. - Josh Bishop

good florless rollar coaster but only smooth in the first 4 rows 7/10 - Michael Brunson

This is one of my favorite rides! Who cares about scenery because I'm blind, it is the ride that counts! I love this ride! - Sarah Meeks

totally awesome outstanding! 9/10. NICE air going through your legs. also great sensation since its floorless. - Corey Nelson

this ride was really cool, the cobra roll was nice and the zero g roll was awsome. - mark lunod
