Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not as good as the first...
Review: Plot: More horror spoofs by the Brothers Wayans.

DVD Special Features:
Plenty of special features for you on this movie. No matter what features you like you can find it on this disk. There is some really good stuff in the deleted scenes.
The Good:
-If you liked the first one you will enjoy the sequel. The Wayans family does what they do best and roll out the politically incorrect jokes.
-The high point of this movie is Chris Elliot as a twisted Mr. Handy. The scenes he is in are totally brutal. The exchanges between him and the wheel chair guy are in total bad taste.
-Another good cameo was done by James Woods as a priest in the opening scene. Woods is really funny and looks good as priest.
The Bad:
-This movie feels like left-overs from the first film. All the good jokes made Scary Movie; all the b-list stuff was put into this flick. The majority of the cast is the same and the so are the jokes. Unfortunately much if this movie is stale.
-Torri Spelling is in this movie. Thank God most of her scenes ended up on the cutting room floor. You see a lot of Tori in the deleted scenes.

Bottom Line: If you loved Scary Movie you will like Scary Movie II. If you didn't you will hate the sequel.

Summary: Scary Indeed
Review: Scary Movie 2's attempt to cash in on it's predecessor doesn't work. At least not for me. While some moments are truly funny, the Exorcist rip-off mainly along with Chris Elliot's scenes, it still falls short of a funny film. I did find myself laughing at times, but however my conclusion is that this is a very weak film that is just trying to cash in on the blockbuster original. I sat there most of the time thinking about how bored I was. Some of the jokes and scenes intended to be hilarious weren't even funny in my opinion.

Some of those characters who supposedly died in the original were back in the sequel with no explantion of how they managed to live. Most of the scenes in this movie are downright tasteless and nasty. But then again, so were those in the first. And I admit, I liked the first. And I liked Scary Movie 2 - perhaps to a certain extent, but it's still a very weak film.

If you're looking for a nasty and crude comedy, then this is for you. ...

Summary: Very Bad and disgusting movie
Review: It is the worst movie ever. I won't give it even one star to rate it. I feel that I waisted 75 minutes of my life by watching this movie. It is disgusting and has nothing to say about it morre than that. Some good actors and actresses also waisted their time and reputation in this movie.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: OH LORD, WHAT A WASTE!
Review: This is the typical career-threatening movie: the kind of movie that threatens the careers and reputations of all involved in the bomb, for which a certain ammount of time is necessary for them to recover and to regain professional respect again.
The original SCARY MOVIE was stupid but fun, it had a history line, a defined plot and defined characters, constructed basically around the SCREAM characters.
But this sequence, shot less than a year after the first one, is a disgrace. It is just stupid, bad tasted jokes all the way. I think the Wayans brothers should think seriously about the example of a bad movi that they have directed, facing it as a lesson, not taking in consideration its success at the box office.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Truly, truly awful in every respect
Review: Scary Movie 2 actually starts off strongly with a short, totally self-contained spoof of "The Exorcist" which has nothing to do with the rest of the film. It's got the flavor and energy of the Wayans' old show, "In Living Color" ....over-the-top, wacky, and outrageous, but intelligent handled.

Then it all goes to hell and never comes back. The movie after that point is disgusting, crass, cheap, and perverse...all of which would perfectly fine if the results were unfunny, but they're not. There's not a single chuckle for the run of the movie. The spoofs are just excuses for gross sex jokes and bodily functions. Chris Elliot is guaranteed to make you cringe as he licks cake frosting off of his whithered hand. In another gag sequence, a handicapped fellow pulls himself up a flight of stairs with his arms. Yes folks --- that's the level of humor I'm talking about.

Avoid, avoid, avoid. Life is too short.

Summary: Very, very bad sequel
Review: I thought that this movie was one of the worst I have ever seen and should not be bought by anyone. While I do like most of movies that fall into the category of stupidor gross humor this was this was just unbareably dumb and I could barely sit through the entire thing. When I watched the first scene the first time for I thought that the movie would be great, but that and the nike commerical parody was the only good part of the movie. Everything else was just [bad]. On the cover to Scary Movie it says "No mercy. No shame. No sequel." Well, they should have kept it that way.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Scary alright.
Review: The most scary pat of this movie is the seemingly lack of self-critisizm. Maybe director Wayans should have asked himself the question: "Do the world need another, "comic" movie to lower standards everywhere?". But alas he did not.
The only remotely funny part of the movie is the introduction, where a parody on the famous "Exorcist" scene was made. From that it is all down hill. The jokes and humor all seem to revolve around sex or breasts, and they all fall flat.
The plot is something about the lead character being invited to some spooky old house, where some other people have been invited too, and from there the fun picks up. Oh joy! I had hoped that the original movie had kept it promise when it said: No Sequel! But alas. Let us all pray we wont see a Scary Movie 3

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I CAN'T BELIEVE IT....
Review: I should have been paid to watch this movie, not to pay to watch it, so bad it is !! I should have left the theater while into the first fifteen minutes into the session, as my brain had told me to do since the movie began !! My God, bad taste comedy reached an all-time low level, thanks to the Wayans Brothers... And to think when he had great comedians.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What were they thinking?
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed the first movie in the series. This one was just flat out boring. The only part I laughed at was towards the end...for a brief second. This was just complete stupid humor. Wait for TV.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Stupid!
Review: The only people that would appreciate this movie are the little prepubescent children. It was just flat out stupid. The dialogue needs improvement, and the producers needed to be more creative in terms of parodying the films. I felt like I was watching a film written by twelve years olds.

The ... bowl humor is played so much that the viewer would get bored after 30 minutes of the film. Sitting in the movie theatre. I kept wondering when this ... was going to end. I only stuck around till the end because I had payed [X] to see it and felt obligated to sit until the very end.
