Scarily awful -- this spoof horror franchise needs a stake driven through its heart, and quick... Full Review |

Perhaps if you send them a stamped, self-addressed envelope they'll tell us why this was thought to be funny. Full Review |

It shows no understanding of or insight into the genre it's attempting to parody, nor indeed of cinema in general. Full Review |

We can only hope this excrement masquerading as humor will bury the gross-out genre once and for all. Full Review |

Basically just a bunch of silly spoof scenes cobbled together around a thin premise, it allows the Wayans brothers to have fun in the way a group of kids might have fun with a video camcorder, except with a multi-million-dollar budget. Full Review |

It's just terrible, with long stretches in which the sea of writers don't even try to insert any humour, followed by an attempted joke that doesn't work on any level. Full Review |

...it does have one redeeming attribute: brevity. Full Review |

That the first film's primary target/model was Scream and that this one's is The Haunting says everything about its creative bankruptcy. Full Review |
