Scary Movie 2

About This Movie

So, Scary Movie 2 is this sequel that veers into haunted house territory, a pretty bold move after the slasher spoof of the first one. Keenen Ivory Wayans really leans into the ridiculousness here. The pacing is fast, filled with gags and over-the-top moments that don’t always land, but the absurdity keeps it lively. The practical effects, especially in the ghost scenes, have this low-budget charm that makes it feel a bit nostalgic. The performances are a mixed bag — some characters are downright memorable while others seem to fade into the background. It’s distinctive for its blend of parody and gross-out humor, a style that’s well-worn by now but somehow still feels fresh in this context.

Not a direct sequel in tone to the first film. · Focuses more on haunted house clichés than slasher tropes. · Features a mix of returning and new characters.
