Movie Info
Defying the very notion of good taste, Scary Movie out-parodies the pop culture parodies with a no-holds barred assault on the most popular images and talked-about moments from recent films, television and commercials. The film boldly fires barbs at the classic scenes from "Scream," "The Sixth Sense," "The Matrix," "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and "The Blair Witch Project," then goes on to mock a whole myriad of teen movie clichés, no matter the genre.

Not a film to be taken seriously, but there really isn't a feature-length montage of Saturday Night Live sketches that parody the horror genre better. Infrequently funny, generally enjoyable.

The parody film Scary Movie is full of laughs, but the comedy's real hit-and-miss. The main story parodies Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, but there are bits of The Blair Witch Project, The Sixth Sense, and a dozen other films mixed in. Starring Anna Faris, Marlon Wayans, and Shannon Elizabeth, there's a fair amount of talent that's able to handle this type of sketch comedy. However, the film parodies don't always mix well, and gets overdone at times. Still, overall Scary Movie is outrageously funny and entertaining.

Scary Movie was a fairly good movie. They could've worked on the comedy a bit more, but at least everything parodies from the film were not that bad. At least all of them were as funny as those so-called spoof movies that those two dreadful filmmakers (who made date movie and all others) made. So I have to say that it was a funny and entertaining movie, even though the comedy could have been even better.

The bad thing in the comercial cinema, is that: filmmakers doesn't want to know if the material is good or he's really express himself with the work that he made, his only concern is the money. Same thing happen in Scary Movie, but it's impossible doesn't laugh with the comedy by Wayans brothers.
