Scary Movie Description
In the tradition of such genre parodies as AIRPLANE!, THE NAKED GUN,
and SPACEBALLS, Keenen Ivory Wayans takes on the teen horror flick
with SCARY MOVIE, a campy, riotous send-up of everything from the
SCREAM and HALLOWEEN franchises to I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER,
CARRIE, and THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT. In a small town, a copycat is
reenacting the SCREAM murders, and local reporter Gail Hailstorm
will do just about anything to get the story. The six high school
students who ran over a man on a sharp curve the year before think
the killer is out for revenge, but sweet and innocent Cindy Campbell
believes that the madman might just lurk a lot closer to home.
Cowritten by Shawn and Marlon Wayans (and four others), the script
leaves no cliché unturned; in addition to the horror parodies, the
film also spoofs such teen sex comedies as AMERICAN PIE and such hit
films as THE SIXTH SENSE, THE MATRIX, and FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT
HIGH. The film never lets up in its striking re-creations of classic
scenes, and it never passes up the chance for a joke, no matter how
crude. The young, attractive cast looks like it just jumped out of
DAWSON'S CREEK, playing everything up to the hilt--and beyond.
"...One of the year's happiest
surprises....Exhilarating [as it] defies all respectable
standards..."
Keenen Ivory Wayans (I'M GONNA GIT YOU SUCKA)
directs this hysterical spoof of slasher films. Targeting, most
specifically, HALLOWEEN, FRIDAY THE 13TH, SCREAM, I KNOW WHAT YOU
DID LAST SUMMER, THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, and THE SIXTH SENSE, SCARY
MOVIE also mocks other genre films such as THE MATRIX. After turning
his attention to dramas for a series of movies, Wayans's return to
comedies contains a seemingly endless onslaught of visual jokes.
Theatrical release: July 7, 2000.
The $19 million film grossed $42.5 million in its first weekend, the
highest opening ever for an R-rated film as of July 2000.
Former IN LIVING COLOR star Kelly Coffield makes a cameo appearance
in the film.
James Van Der Beek makes a cameo appearance in a scene spoofing
DAWSON'S CREEK.
There is one last lewd joke at the very end for those patient enough
to sit through the credits.
SCARY MOVIE marks star Anna Faris's feature-film debut.
Keenen Ivory Wayans makes a cameo appearance in the movie-theater
scene in the trailer preceding SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE.
Keenen's favorite scary movie is THE EXORCIST.
Despite the movie poster proclaiming that there would be no sequel,
a follow-up is reportedly in the works.
