Scared me to death, from the almost zero laughs in this supposed spoof comedy.

Rating: 1/10 (5 May 2003)

Scary Movie 2 brings us once again Shawn and Marlon Wayans from the first and triumphant Scary Movie. This movie spoofs many different movies ranging from The Exorcist, House on Haunted Hill, The Haunting, Poltergeist 1 & 2, What Lies Beneath and many others. It has very funny opening moments with the spoofing of the Exorcist. However, the movie takes an absolute downfall afterwards. It had maybe and I'm being generous here, 2-3 more laughs scattered throughout the movie.
For instance, there is a talking parrot who uses more curse words than I do, but in a VERY extremely non-funny way. It uses jokes like I had your mother last night and stuff like that. The jokes were so unoriginal, I wanted to shoot the person who wrote this crap. Since this movie is suppose to be funny and slapsticky, I expect funny for my buck. I don't expect good acting, plots, character development in these types of movies, but for god sakes, please show me the funny. Marlon Wayans brought a few laughs here and there as did Shawn, but the down-syndrome girl is oh my god, TOO ANNOYING TO DESCRIBE IN WORDS!!
Avoid this movie at all costs. If you want to see some funny spoofs, then I suggest renting National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1, Naked Gun, Naked Gun 2 1/2, Hot Shots part 1, Christmas Vacation, Airplane or Spy Hard. This movie doesn't even get a star. 0 *'s out of 4 *'s.
