First off, let me say that this movie was very funny. Not as funny as it could have been, but very funny none-the-less. It had a good plot and some of the jokes were original, and smart. If you like Airplane or Hot Shots, you will love this movie. If you like a funny, but not a leaveyourbrainatthedoor funny, try scary movie. To me, Scary Movie was better. Probably because "Shriek..." was made for tv while Scary Movie was made for theaters. Go out and get it, you will not be dissapointed.
