Title Information

Scary Movie
This hilarious, must-see comedy smash places Carmen Electra, Marlon Wayans, Jon Abrahams and some of today's hottest young stars in a wickedly funny send-up of today's most popular horror movies. A familiar-looking group of teenagers find themselves being stalked by a more-than-vaguely recognisable masked killer. As the victims begin to pile up and the laughs pile on, none of your favourite scary movies escape the razor-sharp satire of this outrageously funny parody. With Shannon Elizabeth, shawn Wayans and cheri oteri adding side-splitting performances, there's nothing to fear in this scary movie... unless you're afraid of laughing too much.

Blockbuster Feature










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 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 clichs. 

It all starts with the murder of a beautiful high school student, after which a group of misguided teens - discovers there is a killer among them. Heroine Cindy Campbell and her clique of clueless friends, including Buffy, Brenda, Bobby, Greg, Shorty, and Ray, must protect themselves from danger ... and that pesky reporter Gail Hailstorm who just won't leave them alone!

Sound familiar? It certainly is, but as the story gets under way, a series of gruesome and hilarious surprises blows the lid off the expected plot twists and turns them into something funny and twisted. 

The cast of virtual unknowns really throw themselves into the movie and the fact that none of them seem to mind making absolute fools of themselves improves the quality of the film no end. The action comes thick and fast and the ratio of laughs per minute is at a pretty high rate.

If you're looking for a film that will leave a big smile across your face Scary Movie is essential viewing.
