Product Description
All of your favorite Scary Movie characters are back in a laugh-packed sequel that scares up even more irreverent fun than the original! Marlon Wayans (Scary Movie, Requiem For A Dream), Shawn Wayans (Scary Movie, Don't Be A Menace...), and Anna Faris (Scary Movie) lead a stellar cast that takes extreme pleasure in skewering Hollywood's most frightening feature films and spoofing popular culture! Also starring Regina Hall (Scary Movie, Love And Basketball), Christopher Kennedy Masterson (TV's Malcolm In The Middle), Tori Spelling (TV's Beverly Hills 90210)...plus I'm Curry (Charlie's Angels), Chris Elliott (The Nutty Professor II: The Klumps) and James Woods (Any Given Sunday), nothing's sacred and anything goes in this outlandish must-see comedy hit!

The Wayans Brothers return with another horror-flick parody, this one taking shots at The Exorcist, Hannibal, and House on Haunted Hill, along with non-horror fare like Charlie's Angels. In addition to gags (and I do mean gag) about innumerable bodily functions, there are slyer jabs at Thomas Jefferson and Raging Bull. As in Scary Movie, the strongest humor comes from making fun of the inane behavior of characters in horror movies. Assisting Shawn and Marlon Wayans are Anna Faris, Kathleen Robertson (in the Carmen Electra role, providing the T&A), and David Cross, as well as Tori Spelling, Chris Elliott, James Woods (as an exorcist with bowel trouble), Andy Richter, and poor Tim Curry, who probably never thought his career would come to this. --Bret Fetzer

 Great Movie! May 20, 2009

"I found a lot of the jokes distasteful", "unpleasantful and disgusting", etc... And? Not everyone has your taste and what you may find distasteful or disgusting may be nothing to somebody else. My family and I thought it was a great movie and very funny. Every holiday we imitate it and just have a good time. It's supposed to be a comedy so you can't expect comedians to stay within the boundaries of acceptable. If you can't handle adult humor then you should not watch this movie. However, if you are comfortable and now how to have a good time then I highly suggest it.

I'll admit that I written off Scary Movie 2 when I first seen it as a sporadically funny sequel to Scary Movie(which I love). After seeing it again it's a lot better than I gave it credit for and is better than what comes after it.
Scary Movie 2 pokes fun at haunted house movies, The Exorcist and even Charlie's Angels. The movie has its fair share of laughs in the beginning of the movie but sometimes the gross out gags are way over the top. To explain why I think this movie is a mixed bag, I'll contrast the funny parts from the unfunny parts.
Funny Scene#1: The beginning with the spoof on the Exorcist was pretty funny stuff.
Unfunny scene#1: The scene with James Woods on the toilet is flat out disgusting. Bleeech! James Woods already gives me the creeps so the last thing I need to see is him on the john.
Funny Scene:# 2: Marlon's character teaching Anna Faris's character how to be hip and she mistakenly beats up on some unsuspecting girl.
Unfunny Scene# 2: Chris Elliot's abnormal hand digging into a pie as well as a turkey. Nuff said!
Funny Scene# 3: Tori Spelling's character becomes clingy to a ghost after a night of sex.
Unfunny Scene# 3: Shawn Wayan's character impaling the evil clown from Poltergeist with his third leg. Need I say more?
Funny Scene: # 4: The spoof on the Nike commercial.
Unfunny Scene: #4: The wisecracking parrot pooping.
I could go on forever.
Scary Movie 2 is a lot better than most people give it credit for but it could have been a lot better than it predecessor. What kills it is the excessive gross out gags are focused on more than the movie that its supposed to poke fun at. All in all it was a good spoof not a great spoof. Its definitely better than Scary Movie 3 and 4.

If you're a fan of crude, sophmoric humor, you'll enjoy this movie. Like the other movies in the series, this one has one main parody (in this one, it's "The Haunting") with several other parodies of movies thrown in. The very first scene, which is not essential to the plot, is perhaps the funniest. It's a pretty good parody of "The Exorcist", starring James Woods as a less-than-enthusiastic would-be exorcist. The funniest part occurs when the possessed girl's mom and her other white, upper-middle-class friends are gathered around the piano and break into a "gangsta rap" song. I was laughing so hard I was crying.
The rest of the movie centers on several college students who stay in the obligatory spooky old mansion to study psychic phenomena, sort of what happens in "The Haunting". Of course, things go awry, and pandemonium ensues. The performances are very funny, and there are some good parodies. One of the funniest scenes occurs when a marijuana plant in one guy's room turns into a giant monster, rolls up the hapless teen in his bedsheets, and starts to smoke him.
Very funny- just as funny as the first, funnier than the third.
Scary movie 2 is great November 7, 2007
