Advantages: A good Laugh
Disadvantages: Some things are abit silky.
Ooo, i'm scared. Scared of laughing actually. It's a spoofy movie...ge'd it, spoofy movie, spooky movie. Scary Movie begins with Carmen Electra making popcorn and receiving a phone call from a masked killer, de-ja-vu of Drew Barrimore in the first Scream. The story is more than a little familiar, knife-wielding lunatic begins slashing his way through a small clique of friends and is pursued by a soulless news reporter and a retarded deputy. Even the school principal is played by non other than...the 'fonz'. The guy out Happy Days, I just can't remember his name. There isn't really too much else to say about Scary Movie without giving away a lot of its gags. Some of the jokes fall flat, but most are direct hits. It is a laugh. The film does a good job at mixing the plots of Scream, I know What You Did Last Summer etc. Actually, the story almost makes more sense than the movies they're spoofing. Alot of the spoofing joke work well and the one to watch out for is The Matrix fight scene. The movie delivers what it promises, lots of laughs aimed at the teen market, I don't think "adults" will like this one as much as the younger generation. You thought "American Pie" was gross? Well, wait till you see this. It didn't go to number one in the States for no reason.
