Schrei wenn du weisst, was ich letzten Freitag den 13. getan habe

A spoof of several horror movies. Kids at a high school are being murdered by a maniac in a mask. A TV reporter investigates.

Not exactly original: horror spoof movies were dime-a-dozen in the early 2000s, and almost as common as horror movies involving crazed mask-wearing killers bumping off high school kids. Isn't too bad though: some good laughs and is reasonably entertaining. Never takes itself seriously, which is a very useful quality in a parody.

Much more watchable than I expected.

Another spoof of the Scream/I Know What You Did Last Summer horror gene involving a group of popular high school students stalked by a bumbling masked killer while a dogged reporter named Hagitha Utslay covers the story and of the plight of the prime suspect and transfer student Dawson. First off, this is NOT a rip-off of scary movie. It was made before scary movie and was scheduled for a theatricle release but since scary movie beat it to the punch line it was given a direct-to-video release instead. In all honesty, I wish "Shriek" had gone to theatres over the awful scary movie. While there are a few weak moments to be found here, most of the jokes are quite funny or hilarious and the fun, campy atmosphere make it way more enjoyable than scary movie. My rating for "Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the Thirteenth"-7.5/10.

Now there were some moments and jokes that kept this from being a complete waste of time but most of the humor was so outdated and unfunny. It was hard to get through.

As compared to Scary Movie, this movie will obviously not appeal to the mass audience, however to those of us who enjoy overall "bad" movies this is a hit. I spent the money to rent this and have to say that I am happy. Personally I thought the beginning drab, with only one or two somewhat funny parts, however as the movie goes on to me, it gets better. I have to say that I did NOT like Scary Movie as much as everyone else, in truth I found the sexual humor overly done, this is quite the reverse. This pokes fun at ALL aspects of a teen slasher movie, not just the fornication. If you like pointless films, but your friends don't then save this diamond in the rough for a lonely night when you have nothing better to do. ((And before any of you comment I have quite the active social life))

This movie is very much like Scary Movie. Either you laugh at all the silliness and jokes at other movies' expense, or you sit there frustrated thinking it is far too stupid to be funny. Remember, this movie was meant to be a joke!

That aside, there are hundreds of references to other films, some subtle, most not. There is a take on Grease's "Greased Lightning" which had me rolling in my seat, and at one point, Chucky makes a cameo appearance. This movie had a lot of stupid moments, but I would have to say it works as a whole. You have to be prepared for yet-another farcical Scream parody, if you go in expecting the finely-tuned humour of Billy Crystal or Woody Allen, you will be sorely disappointed.

Watch the background for many, many film references. The obvious slapstick gags sometimes overshadow the more humourous background references, some of which actually give this film second viewing possibilities. You will definitely not see all of the jokes this movie has to offer in one viewing (of course, many of you will not be able to stomach watching it a second time).

As with any parody, many of the jokes are predictable and somewhat lame. There are a lot of scatological references (expected), even some scenes pretty well ripped-off from Scary Movie (the entire first sequence), but there are some original bits which tip the scale in it's favour.

I gave it a 6 which is probably very generous, however I went in expecting a childish display of visual gags and got exactly what I expected. I think it was the "Greased Lightning" bit which pushed this from a 5 to a 6, it is one of those memorable moments in a comedy which when you think back on, always seems to make you chuckle.
