Scary Movie (2026) - Angry Movie Review

Recap / Main Plot

The video is an Angry Movie Review of Scary Movie (2026), framed as a “which is better to watch?” showdown. The hosts compare it to Masters of the Universe (viewed earlier), then move into whether this latest entry—described as the technical sixth Scary Movie—can live up to the franchise.

Instead of a single cohesive storyline, the review says the movie is structured as a mishmash of Scream (5/6) plotlines plus a ton of horror/culture references. It frequently cuts away to side skits and “returning to the plot” meta-jokes.

The hosts repeatedly criticize how aggressively the film tries to cram in everything: recent horror, older spoof material, internet jokes, cameo jokes, and pop-culture riffs—arguing this hurts consistency.

What Stood Out (Highlights & Reactions)

• The franchise “Weigh-ins” are back, and the audience/host vibe improves when the older cast presence returns. The crew credits the movie’s comedic momentum more to familiar material than the “new generation” parts.
• Marlon Wayans is singled out as a major bright spot. Multiple hosts call him hilarious and praise his standout performance, especially toward the end.
• Doofy / Officer Doofy becomes a recurring favorite. The hosts love the lowbrow, gross-out comedy (stink/poop/finger jokes) and credit it as one reason some middle sections don’t fully drag.
• Third-act pick-up: several reviewers say it starts rough (around the first third to two-thirds), but becomes genuinely funnier near the end, particularly during the big killer-reveal chaos.

Jokes / Set Pieces Mentioned (Both Best and Worst)

Best / Funniest moments (as described)

• The killer reveal sequence spirals into “17 killers” logic, then clarifies via a meta twist. The hosts joke that the film explains it with more masked killers and ultimately ties it back to the Weigh-ins characters—including Sean and Marlon, plus Shaq.
• Shaq vs. franchise logic: they enjoy the absurdity of Shaq being included, then becoming the target—played for laughs through franchise-history resentment (e.g., “left us out,” etc.).
• Meta-cameo roasting: a standout joke praised as a “commentary on commentary,” not directly about Scary Movie itself, but it lands well for them.
• Cast throwback value: Kim Wayans is mentioned positively for appearing again in a hospital/break-room style bit.

Worst / Unfunny or cringe sections (as described)

• The opening/middle is often called low-effort and not landing: early jokes are described as outdated, scattered, or arriving too quickly.
• Specific disliked elements include:
  • “Megan” (described mostly as dancing rather than delivering a sharp payoff)
  • “The Substance” segment (called confusing and not turned into a good joke)
  • “Sinners” (felt like it should’ve expanded more, but didn’t deliver)
  • K-pop Demon Hunters: labeled cringey, with a particularly awful song singled out
  • Epstein-files humor attempt: criticized as handled without enough care—“you can’t just put that in and call it a joke.”
  • Wednesday/Nurse-style bits: described as repetitive or not funny enough to justify their presence
• A broader recurring complaint is joke saturation without enough payoff—references and side universes feel like filler rather than integrated comedy.

Spoiler Section (Key Endgame Stuff)

In the spoiler breakdown, the hosts focus on how the ending escalates:

• After revealing a couple killers, the plot expands into a mass-killer swarm, and then identities are revealed with Weigh-ins cast involvement.
• Shaq receives a prominent role tied to franchise self-referential jokes (including comments about his appearance in earlier films).
• The movie’s references to older franchise content are discussed—especially how it handles “old vs new” characters, then converts that into a harsh comedic payoff (including humor about “new generation” characters being shut up and disposed of).
• They also mention after-credit material with Long Legs / Nick Cage-style energy (though at least one host says the after-credit gag wasn’t great).

Overall Verdict / Scores

Host opinions diverge, but the overall consensus is:

• Not a theatrical must-see
• Better as a streaming wait, or only if you’re in the mood for chaotic, lowbrow spoof humor with friends

Scores mentioned

• One host: 4/10 (below average; early sections weak, only the third act helps)
• Another host: 5/10 (still low; admits it improves late)
• One host: 6/10 (slightly above average; says nostalgia/Weigh-ins and third-act laughs make it work enough)

They also speculate on box office expectations, suggesting nostalgia and audience demographics could let Scary Movie outperform Masters of the Universe even if critics dislike it.
