While nobody believed that a parody of Scream (itself a parody) could ever work, Keenan Ivory Wayans, along with brothers Shawn and Marlon turned the concept into mega-bucks at the box office. The DVD version, while somewhat skimpy, is sure to please the film's legion of adolescent fans, while winning some new ones in the process. The picture is a solid 2.35:1 widescreen anamorphic transfer that has excellent depth and clarity. The sound is also done well, presented in Dolby Digital 5.0 with good use of surround in certain sequences. Extras are where the disc falls short. There are six deleted scenes, which are well worth watching, as well as a theatrical trailer. Those without a DVD-ROM drive, however, miss out on an interactive guide to the film, the script, a quiz, and character profiles. These are all interesting extras, and should be available to everyone. Scary Movie is a funny movie and is given decent treatment on DVD; but the lack of extras is a sore point.

One of the better spoofs out there
By CrimsonKing42
Scary Movie was the first film in a new wave of send-up films that, thanks to two of this film's writers, have now degraded to the point of the latest of the genre, such as Epic Movie, Disaster Movie, and Meet the Spartans. Those films are monstrous abberations and are completely unfunny, but Scary Movie does succeed in being humorous a good portion of the time.
The plot is a direct copy of the first Scream film (ironically itself a satire of the slasher genre, created by Wes Craven, who has characterized much of the slasher genre since it was first created), in which a group of teens are being stalked by a knife-wielding killer in a black cloak and white ghost mask. This film also mocks another slasher film of the same year, I Know What You did Last Summer, so this film includes a sub-plot lifted from that film in which the killer is aware that the teens killed in a drunk driving incident (sort of, in this case) and subsequetly covered up for their own sake.
The plot isn't the point here. The plot is just the loose framework upon which jokes are hung, and some of them, though FREQUENTLY crude, are actually quite funny, and the Wayans Brothers (Keenan Ivory Wayans directs and his brothers Marlon and Shawn act) successfully give the slasher genre a good grilling. They even find some time to poke fun at a few other things on the side, and the ending is a pretty fun, if totally non-sensical parody of The Usual Suspects.
I don't recommend this to anyone who hates crude or simple-minded comedy, but if you like stupid humor, this will likely work for you.

Great movie, surprise twist makes it exciting
By swkcpi from Madison, WI
Just when you think you know what's going on the twist in the plot changes everything. Great acting and lots of action. Even my wife loved it and that says a lot since she doesn't usually like this kind of movie.
