All the scary movie characters are back in a laugh packed sequel that scares up even more irreverent fun than the original. Marlon Wayans and Anna Faris lead a stellar cast that takes extreme pleasure in skewering Hollywood's most frightening feature films and spoofing popular culture. Starring Regina Hall, Christopher Kennedy Masterson, Tori Spelling and Tim Curry, Chris Elliott and James Woods, nothing's sacred and anything goes in this outlandish must-see comedy hit.

Critics Consensus

Instead of being funny, this gross-out sequel plays like a sloppy, rushed-out product.

Dumb humor, insults and gallons of bodily fluids.

Scarily awful -- this spoof horror franchise needs a stake driven through its heart, and quick...

It shows no understanding of or insight into the genre it's attempting to parody, nor indeed of cinema in general.

A series of gags that indicate the task for the seven writers led by the Wayans Brothers was more enforced labor than creative fun.

Scary Movie 2 is indefensible on every artistic and comedic level... yet I will still stand up for its fans.

Another fun horror movie satire that works when mocking horror films but stutters when going outside the lines. The cast is solid and all having fun, with Chris Elliot stealing the show as Hanson with his creepy hand. Behind the camera, the Wayans continue having fun mocking scary movies, this time focusing on haunted houses but when they go for movies in general, it falls apart a bit (the Charlie's Angels spoof is more annoying that funny). Overall, a fun watch and the last the Wayans did.

Es una película absurda aunque muy divertida. Es una parodia a películas como Angeles de Charlie, Matrix, Haunted Mansion y demás, pero que aprovecha bastante bien los estereotipos y los tan comunes huecos argumentales de las películas de terror y de otro tipo. Cuenta con actores excelentes, situaciones y diálogos que se vuelven emblemáticos por ser bastante cómicos. Simplemente es una película que marcó a toda una generación. Recomendadísima para aquellos que les gustan aquellas películas en las que se burlan de todo a diestra y siniestra, sátiras y parodias aunque deben tener en cuenta que es una película burda y boba. Una vez aclarado eso, véanla bajo su propio riesgo.

I find it strange that I somehow enjoyed Scary Movie 2 more than the first one! David Cross stole the show for me
