Scary Movie is back after 5 years and I saw it as early as I could in theaters. I didn't think it was the best of the series but still was a good spoof on some of the latest horror films. I agree about the other review how it had a different tone and had more dark humor in it. It mainly focuses on Paranormal Activity but also quite a bit on Black Swan, Mama and Rise Of the Planet Of The Apes. I can't believe how many people dislike the Scary Movie franchise, I even find it a bit underrated. It's not a masterpiece but just great dumb, hilarious spoofs. The pg-13 rating should've been R due to a high amount of sexual content (no actual nudity though) and language. Scary Movie V was mostly enjoyable throughout and delivers many great laughs.

Director Malcolm D. Lee (The Soul Men, The Best Man) took a formula story of parody with characters originally created by Marlon and Shawn Wayans, Aaron Seltzer and others and a final script by Pat Proft (Real Genius, Police Squad) and David Zucker (Airplane, The Naked Gun) and had some fun making fun of films like `The Help', The Cabin In The Woods', Paranormal Activity, Black Swan and `Rise of the Planet of the apes'.As the fifth in the line, the comedy is simple and the jokes are always not as obvious, but in `Scary Movie 5' its Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan who have a really funny opening scene of making of a `sex tape' of themselves. Without saying too much, it literally goes over the top and both Charlie and Lindsay obviously have no problem making fun of themselves as well. It is probably the best bit in the film.
Ashley Tisdale (High School Musical, Suite Life) and Simon Rex (Scary Movie 1,2,3 & 4) play a mother and father who obvious have a house with issues. The movie centers around the two of them realizing and then dealing with the `ghostlike' problem the house is having. People like Snoop Dogg, Mike Tyson, Mac Miller, Big Ang and Sharee Whitefield all make cameo appearance of themselves. All are exaggerated, but definitely making fun of themselves.
Overall it's a video movie for me because the previous films were a little funnier to me and had more gags. I did really enjoy the opening with Charlie and Lindsay and applaud both of them for doing it because it clearly shows that they can laugh at themselves and we along with them. Not for the whole family, but if you're a fan of the series you might enjoy it!

"I think there's something going on in this house. Something about this mama." After Charlie Sheen dies his kids are left to themselves in a cabin in the woods. When they are found they are returned to his brother and his new wife. The new parents discover that the kids are not normal and strange things begin to happen around the house. There really isn't too much I can say about this movie. I will say that it was much better then I expected, but I also expected it to be very awful. I thought the first movie in the series was funny. I didn't like the second one (because of the tin arm guy). The third one was OK and I really don't remember the fourth one but I know I saw it. I was even more leery about this one because Anna Faris isn't in it. I will admit that I laughed out loud a few times throughout but like most spoof movies it starts out funny then by the end you are just waiting for it to be over. I did expect much worse though. Overall, better then I expected and it did make me laugh. I give it a B-.Want Scary Movie 5 (Unrated) (Blu-ray + DVD + UltraViolet) (2012) Discount?
I have always been a huge fan of the scary movie franchise but I was a little disappointed by the trailer. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it at the movies. It may not had been the best movie... I wouldn't even say it was good, but I can honestly say I was entertained w/ this hit or miss spoof..Save 38% Off
