Scary Movies Are Made For Laughs
I have always had a love towards movies that would poke fun of the serious ones. There always is a time to let loose and make fun of serious unrealistic movies. The Scary movie series have done a great job of turning our American horror films into "laugh out loud" comedies. Created by Keenan Ivory Wayans and his brothers, they have expanded on to their 5th movie now covering a 12 year spanned. All of these movies that have came out successful in the box office grossing around $818 million. The Scary Movie series consisted in making fun of the scary movies that were popular in their time. Each Scary movie is a masterpiece because of the directors talent to find ways to loosen up, poke fun, and thrill the audience all in one movie.
Over the time period where all five movies were produced, each Scary Movie film dissects around five American horror films and twists them all into one story. The writers tell the audience a new story with the main characters which do not play roles in the original films. It is hilarious because throughout these films, The main character adventure coming across certain monsters and killers that try to pursue them. Wayans turns the films mood from horror to comedy by loosing the scary music and adding relaxed music.
He is known to make the scary characters less intimidating such as dressing up a little Asian girl as the Grudge. A little girl that is trying to scare the main character Cindy, but just cant seem to get her attention while shes walking around the house. Just little things like this make these movies stand out as something different in our Hollywood films today.
Wayan does a tremendous job picking actors and actresses to fit his fictional movie characters. His creative ability just knows on who can draw in the audience to grab their attention and get laughs. Cindy (played by Anna Faris) was a great pick as the main role in the last two movies. Anna is known for her big hit movie's House Bunny and Movie 43 which have both recently came out in the past 3 years. She was first added to the Scary Movie crew back in 2009 with the lead role in the 4th film to the series. Her personality and acting talent is spot on for the blonde, ditsy, innocent Cindy. In these films I really noticed when he announced Charlie Sheen to lead role in Scary Movie 3. Charlie Sheen appears as a main character in Scary Movie 3-5. Tom (played by Charlie Sheen) is a middle aged horny man that relays on Viagra and sex to get him through his day. I know, the new directer Zucker basically told Charlie to play the role as himself in reality.
Snoop Lion, Mac Miller, Shaq, Dr. Phil and Mike Tyson appear in these movies just to grab the audiences attention. I love music and movies, so when I saw that Snoop Lion and Mac Miller are in the new Scary Movie 5, I had to get to the premiere and so did every one else. Zucker's strategy to get people to the movies worked when his new movie released.
Wayan started a new trend of comedies from our era. His Scary Movie film grabbed attention from other directors which started to bring out other movies like Date Movie, Superhero Movie, Dance Movie, Movie 43, Meet The Spartan, and Vampires Suck. Movies like these started to be released after the first Scary Movie but had a different theme. Vampires Suck made fun of the movie Twilight, Meet the Spartans made fun of 300. Superhero Movie poked fun at all the superheros and there serious Hollywood films. Wayan and his creative mind started a new genre of comedies and has blossomed into all types of movies now, not just making fun of horror movies.
I have always had a love for these type of comedies. Ever since I watched the first Scary Movie, I really felt for any other type of movie that came out after it with the same (making fun) style. The series is on a roll and should not stop now. There are way too many new scary movies they are still yet to cover. I am still looking forward to Zucker keeping the Scary Movie series going and can not wait for the 6th movie.
