Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
American comedy film directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans. It parodies the horror and
mystery genres. Several mid- and late-1990s movies are spoofed, including the
more subtle horror film parody series Scream trilogy, The Sixth Sense, I Know
What You Did Last Summer, The Usual Suspects, The Matrix, and The Blair Witch
Project, while it also parodies many of the classic horror films, most notably
Halloween.
The tagline is "No mercy. No shame. No sequel.", with the last reference being
to the tendency of popular horror movies to become long-running franchises.
However, in 2001, Scary Movie 2 was released (with the appropriate tagline "We
lied"). The film was followed by a series of sequels Scary Movie 3 (2003), Scary
Movie 4 (2006) and a Scary Movie 5 is in development for 2008. The franchise has
also spawned similar films, Date Movie, Epic Movie and its pseudo-sequel, Meet
the Spartans, and Superhero Movie, all of which except for Superhero Movie were
written and directed by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, two of the original
writers of Scary Movie. 2 more spoof films are being made called Disaster Movie
and An American Carol. The original title for the film Scream was "Scary Movie"
which ironically was later used to parody it. Both films were released through
Dimension Films. It is the highest grossing film by an African-American director
in history.
