Scary Movie review – belated return of the gag-light horror parody series

A new installment of the long-running parody franchise reunites Regina Hall and Anna Faris after a thirteen-year gap, targeting contemporary horror and genre films for comedic deconstruction. The film takes aim at recent trends including elevated horror, reboots, and notable works from Black cinema such as Ma and contemporary productions. While the franchise historically served as cultural commentary on blockbuster horror conventions, this revival arrives at a moment of oversaturation in both horror production and parody itself. The reviewer suggests the film fulfills a functional niche in satirizing multiplex trends, though with tempered enthusiasm regarding its effectiveness and cultural necessity.
