Scary Movie 2 (DVD) Reviews

note: also appears in part on Flixster and The Student Room The first Scary Movie was a surprisingly funny and even mildly clever film that satirised the conventions of the horror genre with some success. It was silly, crude, and on the surface quite dumb, but it was clear that some thought had gone into the gags, and as a result it ...  Read the complete review

Scary movie two is just as good as number one, if not better. The start of the film is halarious with a parody of the Exorcist, it has loads of cunning jokes and if you dont get the jokes then you wont even relise a joke was jsut made which makes the film that much better because, each time you watch it you hear or see something that you didnt ...  Read the complete review

In this movie Anna Faris reprises her roll from the first film as Sindy in another comedy horror film. This one is more a mixture of parodies from different films than the first but mainly follows the plot of the Haunting.

Scary Movie 2 is the sequel to the original Scary Movie that I found to be more entertaining. This film is a comedy just like the original an I found it to be really entertaining. There some great comic moments in this film that really did make me laugh. The DVD was originally released in 2002 and I felt it was better than before in general. It ...  Read the complete review

Written by the Wayans brothers and looking to cash in on the success of the very funny Scary Movie this follow up went the way of many second movies and failed to live up to the standards of the first one. These comedies are spoofs of the horror movie genre. Don't get me wrong there are some funny moments in this film and the opening ...  Read the complete review

Many people who have reviewed this film have said that it was a poor spin off of the first film, Scary Movie, and I'd just like to set the record straight. This film is absolutely amazing and definatley one of my favourites - I've watched it over and over. A bunch of American teenagers, students at college go on a school trip to study ...  Read the complete review

I was really upset, to be totally honest. I really blame ITV because they showed "Scary Movie" on TV, and I was expecting they'd show this film in a week's time, guess what they didn't, so I had to beg my mom to buy this from HMV (it was only 2 for £10). But I'm still annoyed about the fact that ITV made us buy this DVD! The ...  Read the complete review

Released one year after the first film, we find in real time that our characters are now at college having progressed from High School and are now enrolling for classes. Anna Faris is of course back as Cindy and also returning are personal ...  Read the complete review

What I found really funny was the reaction of most critics to Scary Movie 2. Almost all of them said it was stupid and should have been made, and that it couldn't hold a candle to the first one. What made this amusing was the fact that the same people talked trash about the first movie, and are now talking about it as if it's the ...  Read the complete review

I have both Scary Movie 1 & 2 on DVD, I got them both for under £10 so I wasnt expecting miracles but I loved them both. Scary Movie 2 is a worrying blatant cash in on the massive success on the first film, but do you know what I don't care. I like it anyway. It is very short at only 72 minutes long, but there are plenty of laughs in ...  Read the complete review

Scary Movie 2 was a much anticipated movie for myself. I loved Scary Movie you see, it was just hilarious in parts and really could take the p**s out of other movies. All the actors were excellent in their role and it sits proudly in my DVD collection. However, after seeing some of the ratings for the 2nd helping of Scary Movie I wasn’t too ...  Read the complete review

Trust me, I was really looking forward to seeing this movie, and I even went to the first showing the day it came out. And up until the title was shown, I enjoyed it. The part at the beginning with the middle-aged white people singing "Shake Ya Ass" by Mystikal was pretty damn funny. And I even liked the Exorcist rip off, especially ...  Read the complete review

The seven-person screenwriting team that combined brainpower to come up with a script for Scary Movie 2 did at least one thing right – they included enough playful pokes at other movies to keep frequent filmgoers busy keeping track of them all. It starts with a funny – if unoriginal – takeoff on The Exorcist (featuring a crudely ...  Read the complete review

Scary Movie 2… Hummmmmm you would think that after the first scary movie film that was without doubt a stunner, which they would come out all, guns blazing. Although this was not the case, I first sat in the cinema and expected this to be one of the greatest comedies I had seen since American Pie. The film starts of with Cindy, the ...  Read the complete review

Scary Movie was a pretty strange concept in the first place. It spoofed the slasher genre, picking particularly on the Scream series of movies for its inspiration and main target...interesting seeing as Scream was a spoof in the first place. But then I suppose spoofing a spoof IS something new and I actually thought the movie was pretty funny...in ...  Read the complete review

Expectations were high for this movie after the first outing for the group. My personal interest was going up as I approached the cinema, I was wondering whether this movie would live up to the original, or fall at the first fence as many other sequels have. The opening scenes were VERY funny. It made a spoof copy of the exorcist, which ...  Read the complete review

Ok, so sequels appear to be more often than not a bad idea, these days. However I thought I would give Scary Movie 2 the benefit of the doubt as I genuinally really liked the first and was hoping that this would be a humouress follow up. Unfortunately, I was wrong! Scary Movie 2, don't get me wrong, it's not the worst ...  Read the complete review
