![]() * Urban Legend: Cindy drives alone and sings along to Vitamin C’s “Graduation (Friends Forever).” The singing is bad and Vitamin C interrupts to tell Cindy to shut up. * The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Hanson (Chris Elliot) is a creepy house servant based off of Riff Raff. Ray’s says “Ray,” and the other guy’s says “Fucked Me.” * Dude, Where’s My Car?: Ray and a friend get tattoos on their upper backs. * The Amityville Horror: Pervy priest blesses the house while pooping, and flies cover his face, as happens to the priest in The Amityville Horror. * Friday the 13th: Megan’s last name is Vorhees, like Jason’s. They just end up puking all over each other until the pervy priest shoots her. Her mom calls an earnest priest (Andy Richter) and a pedophilic one (James Woods) to rid her of the evil spirit. * The Exorcist: A young girl named Megan (Natasha Lyonne) is possessed just like Regan in The Exorcist. The ghost in SM2 is named Hugh Kane in The Haunting, it’s Hugh Crain. There’s also a female character named Theo, as there is in The Haunting. Cindy, Ray, Smoky, and Brenda are among those chosen to be a part of the purported study. * The Haunting: The main target of mockery here, the plot of this 1999 remake involved a scientist who told people he was conducting an insomnia study but really wanted to see how they’d react to fear. The same thing happened with Michael Myers. ![]() * Halloween: Cindy throws Ghostface through a window, and when she goes outside, he’s gone. The bottom of the cup says Doofus, à la Keyser Soze. * The Usual Suspects: Cindy drops her coffee cup as she realizes Doofy is the murderer. The effects aren’t quite up to the originals. * Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Matrix: The final fight scene uses visual tricks from the big fights in these two movies. * I Still Know What You Did Last Summer: Bobby mentions how much it sucks, especially the “fat white Jamaican kid” played by Jack Black. ![]() * The Sixth Sense: Smoky (Marlon Wayans) gets baked and says, “I see dead people.” It ends with Bobby pinning Cindy to the ceiling with a geyser of ejaculate. * American Pie: Cindy and Bobby (Jon Abrahams) go to her bed to have sex for the first time like Michelle and Jim did in American Pie. * Thelma & Louise, The Fugitive, Jackie Chan movies, Schindler’s List, Boogie Nights, Big Momma’s House: Brenda is killed in the theater by pissed-off moviegoers for whom she’s ruined all of these movies by talking too loud. * Shakespeare in Love, Amistad, and Titanic: Ray (Shawn Wayans) and Brenda (Regina Hall) go to the movies to see Shakespeare, but first have to watch a trailer for Amistad 2, which includes a slave standing on a ship yelling, “I’m the king of the world.” * The Blair Witch Project: Ghostface chases attention-hungry TV reporter Gail Hailstorm (Cheri Oteri) into the woods, where she turns the camera on her face (and her snot faucet of a nose) to record her last words. * The Shining: Buffy (Shannon Elizabeth) is alone in the girls’ locker room and Ghostface whispers “redrum” before going in for the kill. * Election: The annoyingly plucky Heather (Andrea Nemeth) passes out election fliers in the school hall and is hated by her teacher. * Kazaam: Drew (Carmen Electra) says it’s her favorite horror movie because Shaq’s acting is so scary. * The Exorcist: Cindy mentions puking green slime and masturbating with a crucifix at her first keg party. There are also a couple of direct references to the movie including one character saying it didn’t make any sense and Cindy saying that in a horror movie version of her life, she would be portrayed by “Jennifer Love Huge-Tits.” When Ghostface starts killing, they suspect their accident victim. Cindy (Anna Farris) and her crew hit a guy on a dark road with their car and throw him off a pier even though he’s not dead. * I Know What You Did Last Summer: The other major plot points mock IKWYDLS. There are also a few direct references to Scream, including one character saying it didn’t have a plot and another saying their lives are just like Scream, “same dialogue and everything.” The main characters mirror Scream’s and the film centers on figuring out who’s killing people while wearing a Ghostface mask. * Scream: Most of the plot is a Scream parody. Here’s our best attempt at a comprehensive list of each movie referenced in the Scary Movie franchise. They’re less about mocking movies than lazily mentioning them. Sure, they occasionally send up a horror trope or two, but most of the “spoofing” done in the franchise really involves re-creating scenes from other movies and then maybe adding a fart sound. Ever since the first one was released in 2000, the Scary Movie films have been labeled spoofs.
