This is equally as funny as the first, for those that criticise it for being dull or over the top, it's a spoof parodying horror films, it's not meant to be taken seriously in the slightest.The opening scenes, the parody of The Exorcist is one of the funniest things, I can no longer watch The Exorcist without picturing James Woods. There are so many funny moments I can pick out, Hanson's hand and the dinner, Ray and the Clown, but I can't help rewinding Cindy's scene with the cat, that's just too funny.I think this, like the first was such a great movie, but then they had so much material at the time to work with, so much to parody. Films recently seem so unoriginal, they continue to rehash old material, that's why I couldn't see this type of film working right now, perhaps that's why the fifth instalment was so poor.Not one for everyone, as it does manage to offend everyone, if you can take it for how it's meant, it's hilarious.

Scary Movie 2 is the 2001 sequel to the hilarious fun fest Scary Movie. The film parody's Titanic,The Exorcist and Poltergiest. It's about Cindy who now in college goes to a haunted house as a project for college only til not so scary entity's come out to kill one by one. Like the first film,an amazing hilarious laugh riot. Anna Faris was perfect as the idiot Cindy. The film spoofs a lot of good films that I really liked. Natasha Lyon made a guest appearance as Regan from the exorcist who I thought was really funny. The movie once again was directed by one of the Wayane brothers who I love as a director. Scary Movie 2 is a awesome hilarious astounding comedy spoof that you need to see if you love spoof films!!

Parody of the Exorcist, Poltergeist, House on Haunted Hill, Hannibal, What Lies on Beneath, Charlie Angels, and Mission Impossible. Some of which are the best films to be ever created in the 20th century. One really great film is Poltergeist. A very well conducted film based on spirits attacking others. I really thought in the past this film was really great. Now, watching this in the future, I think, wow are these the same directors for the first film because I could their not. I guess the pot and drugs got to their brains...BAD. They could do more really. I loves comedy/horror films though this is my least liked one. In this people are getting blow-jobs by ghost, getting smoked, also clowns are being raped, plus fighting cats. I mean that sound like it could the funny but anyone could outgrow these laughs. For the first film, those are legendary though. Also one very funny scene is a basketball scene.

Scary Movie 2 (2001): Dir: Keenan Ivory Wayans / Cast: Anna Faris, Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Tim Curry, Regina Hall: After spoofing The Exorcist and The Amittyville Horror in the opening, this sequel then plummets in despair. This time it targets The Haunting and The House On Haunted Hill with Tim Curry summoning a group of students to Hell House. There is no story to be found as it gets lost in its own vile. Keenan Ivory Wayans achieved the satire delivery in the first film but he directs this sequel rather half-heartedly. Anna Faris returns as Cindy who gets into a boxing fight with a cat in a reference to Raging Bull. Marlon Wayans is wrapped and smoked by a marijuana plant. This may very well be the best visual joke in the film but it is carried on too long. Shawn Wayans surprises a clown demon under the bed in a reference to Poltergeist. Curry is wasted as a professor who serves no real purpose. Perhaps it is his appeal from The Rocky Horror Picture Show that aided in his casting but this film hardly allows him to catch lightning in a bottle. Regina Hall returns and dies again, which makes little sense but then again, why look for logic here. Scary Movie used vulgar humour but it worked because it exposes horror film clichés. This time Wayans is given a larger budget and creates a spectacle in shame that should be wrapped like a joint and lit on fire. Score: 1 / 10
