July 2, 2001, General Cinema's Avco Center, Westwood, CA.

Like everything in this wacky town we call Hollywood, if it make money lets' make more of it so here we are again with the second installment of SCARY MOVIE  brought to you by the twisted mind of director Keenan Ivory Wayans. Dimension Films played host for the unspooling of its' horror/comedy franchise that pokes fun at all the cliché horror films of the recent past, practically beating you over the head with the obvious jokes. From the cast were stars Anna Faris, Tori Speling, Kathleen Robertson, Chris Masterson, Chris Elliott, Regina Hall, Veronica Cartwright, Andy Richter, James Woods, Natasha Lyonne, Richard Moll, David Cross and Shawn, Marlon and director Keenan Ivory Wayans. Other luminaries at the chucklefest were Clive Barker, Wes Craven, Shannon Elizabeth, Carmen Electra, Bianca Kajlic, Danny Masterson, Laura Prepon, Jason Biggs, Clare Krammer, Clea Duvall, Lochlan Munroe, Sydney Penny, Vanessa L. Williams and Kevin Williamson.

 

The first film to fall victim to Keenan Ivory Wayans "humor" is THE EXORCIST with Natasha Lyonne as Megan Voorhees the possessed and James Woods and Andy Ricther as the priests. We then go to the returning cast of Anna Faris, Regina Hall and the Wayans Bros. joined by new boyfriend to Faris, Chris Masterson's Buddy. Then they segue into a farce of  HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL and THE HAUNTING. Sprinkled with sick jokes and other obvious parodies on more successful films, SCARY MOVIE 2 will hopefully end its' run with this humorless sequel, making the Wayans return to their funnier roots like I'M GONNA GET YOU SUCKA and IN LIVING COLOR.
