    • Released: 2000
    • Directed by: Keenen Ivory Wayans
    In the realm of horror-comedy, Scary Movie finds its unique niche. Directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans, it's a satirical romp through familiar horror tropes. Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris) is an average high school student whose world spirals into absurdity when she becomes the target of a mysterious killer. Also featuring memorable performances from Marlon Wayans as Shorty Meeks and Regina Hall as Brenda Meeks, Scary Movie parodies iconic scenes from popular horror films, injecting humor into terror. Its unexpected blend of genres ensures an entertaining viewing experience without the usual chills associated with horror flicks.
