No es otra tonta película de miedo

This movie was exactly what I expected, an average parody with tons of sight gags. It won't have you doubled over in laughter but there are some good jokes.

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))

I don't know why, but I didn't hate this movie. Maybe it was because I was just in the mood for something stupid, or maybe it was because of Majandra Delfino's long legs, but it was worth a smile or two. This movie might not win any awards, but if you want to see something kinda light, go for it. If you're looking for something that's going to be interesting, deep or meaningful, rent something else.

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.

This film, like 'Cherry Falls,' was scheduled for wide-screen release but due to some other films - other horrible films - they were not. Instead, the USA Network, which is widely known for its pornography that consists of the Pizza Guy entering, then a cut, then the Pizza Guy leaving, aired these two films and others.

I believe this was the jewel of the bunch. Unlike 'Scary Movie,' it provided humor via dialogue - and not a penis impaling. The movie kept throwing joke after joke at you, at times making it hard to breathe. From the cheerleader lapping Scotch in a water fountain in school to the surprise 'dastardly' ending, the film did what many thought impossible: parody a parody.

And yes, even before (and after) 'Scary Movie' left its path of destruction throughout audiences all over the world.
