Scary Movie 2
The Wayans Brothers return with another horror-flick parody, this one taking shots atThe Exorcist,Hannibal, andHouse on Haunted Hill, along with non-horror fare likeCharlie's Angels. In addition to gags (and I do meangag) about innumerable bodily functions, there are slyer jabs at Thomas Jefferson andRaging Bull. As inScary 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
