the scary movie parody wagon have be roll since 2000 and when the wayans brother pool their considerable comedic talent and come up with a kitchen sink flick that riff on mainly horror movie  with just a little matrix throw in . the second scary movie and also from the brother wayan and riff on the exorcist and the legend of hell house and poltergeist and little shop of horror and a nightmare on elm street and the shining and and hannibal . non horror target include dirty harry and charlie angel and crouch tiger hide dragon and and again and the matrix . a couple of year pass and and the directorial torch be pass to airplane . genius with a joke david zucker for scary movie 3. without wayans and the genre widen a bit to add even more non horror movie spoof and much more current film . it be a box office hit and so of course you know what be come scary movie 4 and with all the core regulars back in action and make fun of war of the world and the grudge and the village and saw and saw ii and million dollar baby and and brokeback mountain . with a good through line connect all the story than it predecessor and scary movie 4 be a refreshing ( albeit rank ) addition to the series . anna faris and regina hall be back a the clueless cindy campbell and and the sex craze brenda meeks and respectively . when cindy take a job a the caretaker of an elderly woman ( cloris leachman ) and she run into some scary ghost with a grudge . but thing start look up when she meet her handsome new neighbor and tom ryan ( craig bierko ) . unfortunately and tom be distract by trouble of his own  namely a bitter ex wife and two clingy kid and and and oh yeah represent an alien invasion and spark by the ground break appearance of the ipod . when tom and his family and and cindy be force to flee and find a way to beat the huge and deadly alien machine and they take a few side trip . one such trip take cindy and her best friend brenda into the village and a place where time stand still and the resident blind girl ( carmen electra ) can not find the outhouse . returnees from scary movie 3 include charlie sheen ( spoof bill pullman the grudge while turnabout be fair play and so bill pullman be also in scary movie 4 ) and simon rex and leslie neilsen a our commander in chief and and anthony anderson and kevin hart who have change their eight mile tune to the brokeback mountain hoe down or get down . i be impressed not only by the logical knitting of the story line ( only brokeback mountain be force to fit and but it okay a a flashback ) and but by the attention to detail . the set and set design and especially for the grudge and saw and be flawless and even the costume be perfectly fit to the character for each skit . the only bet they really miss be a zombie movie spoof ( when brenda return from the dead  the ring curse kill her in scary movie 3  it just gloss over ) . despite too much scatological humor ( just a personal bias of mine ) and scary movie 4 be a laugh out loud funny and well direct and well acted comedy that a perfect kick off to the summer popcorn season . to say much more would spoil the surprise and so all i will say be represent if you like the scary movie franchise and be sure and catch this one on the big screen .
