Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

adonis98-743-186503 A group of teenagers including Cindy Campbell and Bobby Prinze, accidentally hit a man when driving, and dispose of the body, but now they are being stalked by a very recognisable masked killer. The victim count increases, whilst Cindy must survive the carnage that has she has seen in so many films before. Scary Movie started the new millenium with a big bang and although we're talking about a Parody we're actually talking about a good one and very amusing that has alot of good humor and the perfomances are just terrific and with lines that are popular.

Wuchak RELEASED IN 2000 and directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans, "Scary Movie" spoofs 90's horror films, like "Scream" (1996), "I Know What You Did Last Summer" (1997) and "The Blair Witch Project" (1999). Anna Faris plays the likable protagonist; other cast members include: Jon Abrahams, Shannon Elizabeth, Dave Sheridan, Shawn Wayans, Regina Hall and Marlon Wayans. Carmen Electra appears in the prologue.It's interesting seeing Faris when she was so young and there are several laughs throughout, especially if you're up on 90's horror. Unfortunately, the movie's ruined by constant crude, sleazy jokes with way too much gay-oriented non-humor. THE FILM RUNS 88 minutes and was shot at Pasadena City College, California, but mostly in British Columbia (Vancouver, Victoria & Richmond). WRITERS: Too many to name. GRADE: D

jc-osms We all make mistakes. Mine was to watch this movie. I actually quite like spoof comedy movies, like "Airplane", "Hot Shot", "The Naked Gun" et al, so, thinking I was in for a good laugh, I tuned in. I guess I wasn't properly aware of the difference in the directorial method of James Brooks back in the eighties and the Wayans in the noughties. Maybe if I was also 40 years younger, I might have got a kick out of the shenanigans which unfolded here.Really, this is just a frat-boy's paradise, meaning lots of low humour, vulgar jokes and crude banality. I got the references to contemporary thriller - horror movies, like "I Know What You Did Last Summer", "Scream", "Blair Witch Project" and "Sixth Sense" amongst many others, but really just found the humour way too obvious and infantile to connect with.Even in the earlier movies mentioned above, I accept there's some risqué humour, but for every clean, even clever smile-inducing gag, (like when the subjective camera bumps into the lead actress, although they even borrowed that from Mel Brooks) there were twenty- plenty other wince-making, below-the-belt and often just embarrassing so-called jokes. I could go on by saying that the largely unknown cast failed to demonstrate any great originality or distinction in their acting, but to be honest, they're largely secondary to the non-stop barrage of cheap sex-jokes right from the start.Successful enough to spawn a horde of sequel movies, I won't be tuning in for any of them anytime soon. Last one in class, turn off the lights please.

Davis P OK, now I'm just checking, comedies are supposed to make you laugh right??? I'm just making sure, because I wasn't 100% positive after seeing this.... OK so in a nutshell, I'm going to explain scary movie to you, it's a poor attempt at comedy, that is FILLED with non-stop sex, nudity, and cuss words. I found the gags very offensive and just over-used!! Scream face smoking weed!! Seriously is that the best they could do? The Wayne Bros. Need an early retirement. This just wasn't funny! I found it very hard to watch at some parts, because it was just sooo offensive and crude!!! It's middle school potty humor, and I would hope that our filmmakers can do better than this!!
