Full Review Page

Having now seen Scream, I have more appreciation for Scary Movie. Scream is already a borderline parody of horror movies and Scary Movie cranks it up to 11. Of course, some of the jokes haven't aged well and quite a few times they are trying way too hard for a small payoff. Scream took a lot of jabs at the genre and Scary Movie capitalizes on many of the things that Scream didn't hit. The acting is all that it needs to be for a stupid parody movie, but Anna Farris is great. Shorty wasn't funny in 2000 and he wasn't funny in Scary Movie 2 in 2001 and he still isn't funny now. My biggest issue is that while Scream is a satire from people who clearly love horror movies, Scary Movie doesn't feel like it comes from the same place. Especially having seen interviews from the Wayans brothers, I don't think they made Scary Movie as horror fans lampooning the genre; they seem to think that the entire genre is stupid and deserves to be made fun of. Scary Movie has some funny parts, but the script is missing heart.
