Product Description

Some comedy is like a scalpel; the Scary Movie series is a hand grenade, spewing bodily fluids and big-breasted women in all directions as they lampoon the latest horror. In Scary Movie 4's case, the main targets are War of the Worlds, The Village, The Grudge, Saw, and Tom Cruise jumping all over Oprah's couch (the scariest of the lot). Along the way, potshots get taken at non-horror fare like Brokeback Mountain and Million Dollar Baby, as well as obvious targets like Michael Jackson and George W. Bush, among others. Anna Faris (Lost in Translation) and Regina Hall (The Honeymooners) return as the central characters wandering through a crazy quilt of horror scenarios, joined by Craig Bierko (Cinderella Man) doing a dead-on parody of Cruise at his most manic. Cameos include everyone from Charlie Sheen to Shaquille O'Neal to Carmen Electra. Some of it's funny, some of it's not, but there's a generally buoyant zaniness that comes from director David Zucker, one of the creators of Airplane!, which started the whole firehose-of-jokes aesthetic. --Bret Fetzer

 Scary Movie 4 August 5, 2009
Susan Hunter
Another form of silly entertainment that works. The movie is fun, with an actually storyline which anyone can find amusing. Another movie to make us laugh- good job.
Star cast as well :)
 Worse than I expected it to be. April 19, 2009
Amber (Georgia)
I admit, I went into this movie already judging it since I knew it would mock some of the movies I really love. But the level of stupidity was much higher than I had hoped it would be, and after a while I could feel my brain cells dying by the hundreds. I eventually walked out of the room to read a book and try to regain some of my lost time and intelligence. The humor in this movie and others like it is way too juvenile for me to appreciate, and I honestly did not like any of the people who acted in the film. I will never see another one of these atrocities again.
I did find this to be the best of the series... April 6, 2009
S. Ring (Rocky Mountains)
There were some gags that didn't hit home but nothing to drag the whole movie down. This is the most visually interesting and ambitious one and as far as I'm concerned the 4th time was the charm. IN this case the gratuitous bits, like the Oprah interview at the end, actually worked great and showed a growing confidence in the material, although I wouldn't mind if they stopped while they were ahead (which, of course, they didn't).
Not so Scary or Funny March 12, 2009
John W. Mueller (Albuquerque, NM, USA)
I had hoped that this would be funny like the first 3 Scary Movies, but sadly it was not. I watched it twice to make sure I hadn't just been in an unfunny mood, but unfortunately, it seems like they were really pushing the comedy, and tried too hard. I would wholeheartedly recommend the first three in the series, but I would NOT Recommend this one.
 More slapstick than satire January 25, 2009
Harold Long (Ashburnham, MA United States)
The "Scary Movie" series was always good for a laugh, but after three sequels the writers and creative directors seem to have worn out the plot. Although Scary Movie 4 has some good gags, overall it is very predictable and almost boring. Better to rent this one, instead of buying it.
