| I'm going to keep the plot summary fairly short, because "Scary Movie" is
really nothing more than a mix of different slasher films rolled into one.
Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris) is your typical high school student. Her
problems include: dealing with...more |

| "Scary Movie" was the original title for Wes Craven's ultra-popular "Scream."
That is probably the best thing I can say in favor of this slapdash,
lackadaisical spoof of the "Scream" movies and the slasher film genre in
general. As with most spoofs,...more |

| The Wayans brothers are back, bringing their wacky "scare tactics" to the
screen. It's goofy silly humor, from the most graphic sex jokes you'll ever
see on film to those old, tired, pot-head gags, to truly funny spoofs of the
fright genre from "I Know...more |

| Keenen Ivory Wayans's SCARY MOVIE is a sweet little farce in the spirit
of the old AIRPLANE movies. Every sentence has a different joke with
each being sillier than the last. Although called SCARY MOVIE, the film
spoofs everything from horror movies (I...more |

| Since "Scary Movie" is nothing more than a silly
spoof, it would be unfair to measure it against the
same standards as you would any other kind of film.
The plot, thin as it is, revolves around the myriad of
horror movies that have ever come out, and...more |

| Spoofs have always been a favorite of mine in the movie genre. You go into
the movie theatre and laugh until your side hurts. Movies like "Airplane" and
"The Naked Gun" are some of my favorite spoofs. We haven't had many
full-force spoofs of horror...more |

| Simply outrageous. That's the best description I can provide for
/Scary Movie/, an extremely clever satire of movies that satirise the
teen slash-and-gore horror genre. more |

| I generally rate "spoof films" by the number of jokes that work in the film
versus those that didn't. Classics like AIRPLANE, TOP SECRET and NAKED GUN
get high marks for achieving an exceptionally high ratio of jokes that hit
their mark, while others...more |

| Making a film that’s a spoof of an entire movie genre is kind of a

It's ironic that Miramax, the studio that launched the

own raunchy spoof of the trend. Directed by Keenen...more |
