In
the
tradition
of
such
genre
parodies
as
AIRPLANE!,
THE
NAKED
GUN,
and
SPACEBALLS,
Keenen
Ivory
Wayans
takes
on
the
teen
horror
flick
with
SCARY
MOVIE,
a
campy,
riotous
send-up
of
everything
from
the
SCREAM
and
HALLOWEEN
franchises
to I
KNOW
WHAT
YOU
DID
LAST
SUMMER,
CARRIE,
and
THE
BLAIR
WITCH
PROJECT.
In a
small
town,
a
copycat
is
reenacting
the
SCREAM
murders,
and
local
reporter
Gail
Hailstorm
will
do
just
about
anything
to
get
the
story.
The
six
high
school
students
who
ran
over
a
man
on a
sharp
curve
the
year
before
think
the
killer
is
out
for
revenge,
but
sweet
and
innocent
Cindy
Campbell
believes
that
the
madman
might
just
lurk
a
lot
closer
to
home.
Cowritten
by
Shawn
and
Marlon
Wayans
(and
four
others),
the
script
leaves
no
cliché
unturned;
in
addition
to
the
horror
parodies,
the
film
also
spoofs
such
teen
sex
comedies
as
AMERICAN
PIE
and
such
hit
films
as
THE
SIXTH
SENSE,
THE
MATRIX,
and
FAST
TIMES
AT
RIDGEMONT
HIGH.
The
film
never
lets
up
in
its
striking
re-creations
of
classic
scenes,
and
it
never
passes
up
the
chance
for
a
joke,
no
matter
how
crude.
The
young,
attractive
cast
looks
like
it
just
jumped
out
of
DAWSON'S
CREEK,
playing
everything
up
to
the
hilt--and
beyond.
