It has some monstrous laughs, but Wayans spoof of 1970s blaxploitation films (Im Gonna Get You Sucka!) was much more fun.

After a while though, you find yourself screening out the REALLY awful bits and end up laughing despite yourself.

Perhaps the best jokes concern the racial issues routinely ignored in real horror films.

Scary Movie, the latest attempt at teen scarefare, delivers plenty of raunchy dialogue and objectionable sight gags, but it falls short in terms of hu ..

The Meg I was hoping that The Meg would be a good dose of big, dumb, late summer fun, and for the most part it is.

Although very hit and miss, Scary Movie is funny enough to be worthwhile.
Eye For Film

All three Scream movies relied on witty dialogue and engaging characters, something that Scary Movie desperately lacks.

And Wayans offers a shocking, unstoppable gross out factor here that leaves but one concern, whither Farrellys

The scary thing about this spoof of 90s teen horror movies is how funny it is.

Inventive fun.Kudos to director Keenen Ivory Wayans for keeping the picture lively and hoppin.

Every little gag cant be so funny so in between moments of laughter the audience must sit through lame attempts at humor.
