Just like in the movies, just when you think 'It's' gone, 'It' pops up back into your life...
After dropping out of the Box Office, Scary Movie returns... No, not as a sequal. It's the same one.
A deranged killer is stalking a bunch of attractive high school kids, calling them on his cell phone and asking them if they like scary movies. He wears a black cloak and a ghost mask; Sound familiar? The difference is this killer likes to smoke pot with his victims before killing them.
A spoof on teen slasher films, this comedy reworks elements from the classic "Halloween," "Scream" and “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” horror series. Jonathan Abrahams, Shannon Elizabeth and Cheri Oteri stake the title roles. "In Living Color's" Keenen Ivory Wayans directs.
The movie also stars Carmen Electra and Regina Hall.
Scary was written by Phil Beauman and Jason Friedberg and produced by Eric L. Gold. Dimension Films released it.
Rated R for strong crude sexual humor, language, drug use and violence, the movie runs 1 hour and 28 minutes.
In its 11th week out, the movie grossed a tie mark with Duets of $2,000,000; giving it a total of 151,700,000.
The movie's return marks its 6th week in the Box Office top 10.
