Scatter shoot jokes from the Wayans
1 March 2014
The Wayans brothers bring a horror spoof based somewhat on the Scream movies. It also spoofs every TV and movie that the Wayans could get their hands on. The biggest question should be 'is it funny'. The answer is yes more than no. It starts with a funny opening with Carmen Electra. Anna Faris is adorable as Cindy Campbell, and is best when playing dumb.

The movie is very scatter shoot with its humor. It leads to some hilarious jokes but also some groan worthy stupidity. Not all jokes work and definitely not for everybody. The scatter shoot approach should get some laughs from everybody. The best has to be when they inject some black people humor into the lily white Scream franchise. It takes the similar path as Zucker's Airplane without the cohesive story.
