DVD Reviews of Scary Movie

DVD Review: Scary Movie is a Sardonically Hilarious Movie
Summary: 4 Stars

Scary Movie gives off a funny vibe that I think made me smile throughout the movie. You see, I'm the sort of person who loves dark humor, hence the Scary Movies. I appreciate how Scary Movie tries to make something serious a lighter subject, even though sporadically it's not that funny. Although some might not like this movie, I enjoyed it and it embellished things that you DON'T want to do or say. I loved Scary Movie and I would recommend it to anyone who loves physical and dark movies that are funny.

DVD Review: Disgusting
Summary: 1 Stars

It's bad enough that comedies today, whether on TV or in the movies, rely so heavily on sexual humor (a sign IMO that the writer's cannot come up with anything legitimately funny). This, however, goes far beyond sex jokes into the pronographic.

DVD Review: Just Not Funny Anymore
Summary: 3 Stars

Scary Movie
This movie started the idea of making parody movies. Honestly, most parody movies are horrible with a few laughs in them. It's like they are trying to hard. Scary Movie is one of the few movies that proved well done in the genre.

A serial killer who is dressed exactly like the murderer from Scream kills a woman named Drew. The police are interviewing students to try and figure out what they can. Cindy, your main character, suddenly gets messages from the killer; this is a parody of I Know What You Did Last Summer. Cindy and a group of friends actually killed a man and threw him in a lake exactly like I Know What You Did Last Summer. The entire story is a combination of the two previous movies, with a ton of humor thrown in the mix. The outcome is a pretty good.

The problem with the movie is that it gets old fast. After a watch or two, you won't have any plans to watch it again. Most of the comedy is stupid in a way that loses it's touch after awhile. The first watch will have you laughing your head off; a couple watches later will have you wishing you had your money back.

This movie would also be the spawn of many horrible parody movies. This includes Date Movie, Epic Movie, and others. I'm not taking off points for this, but I just thought it should be said.

DVD Review: High End Vulgar Comedy!
Summary: 4 Stars

Guys! if you have seen "Scream" and "I know what u did last summer" then this movie would be the best ever seen comedy movie for u. I would call it the dangerous comedy movie. It is actually the parody of classic horror movies filled with "high end vulgar comedy" by Wayan brothers.

DVD Review: Good for those with a sense of humor
Summary: 5 Stars

It was a great spoof movie. I was cracking up all the way through. Much much better than "Not Another Teen Movie". If you don't like spoofs,vulgarity, drug references and the like, then you won't like this.

Description of Scary Movie

Dimension

If you've seen Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, then you know the entire plot of Scary Movie. That's okay, though, because this is a parody, and it helps to know the story in order to be able to get the jokes. No, the biggest surprise here is not the story as much as the amount of full-frontal male nudity. Really, in addition to all the dick jokes (and the ass jokes and fart jokes), there's a couple of shots of the male member, one of which is erect and used as a weapon. Scary Movie somehow ended up with an R rating, which in a sense is groundbreaking; perhaps our ratings board is loosening up after all.

But is it funny? That's the most important question, and the answer to that is yes. In the vein of Airplane!, with a dash of the Farrelly brothers, Scary Movie keeps throwing jokes at you one after another. The law of averages says some of them have to hit, and enough of them do to keep the movie entertaining. Unlike the makers of Airplane!, however, the Wayans brothers aren't making this movie out of a love of the genre, and unlike the Farrelly brothers, they don't make fun of retarded people with any sort of respect, so the humor throughout feels a lot uglier. Still, there are enough funny scenes in Scary Movie to make the viewing experience worthwhile. Special credit must go to Lochlyn Munro as Greg, the over-the-top jock, who steals the movie up until the time he's gotta die.--Andy Spletzer
