Amazon.co.uk Review
This freewheeling parody tosses horror movies, Eminem,
The Matrix, and much more into a cinematic blender.
Scary Movie 3 centres around Cindy, a bubble-headed young newscaster who believes that a deadly videotape has some mysterious connection to the aliens who've been making crop circles in the cornfield of a local farmer (Charlie Sheen), whose brother hopes to win a local rap contest. Along for the ride are Queen Latifah, George Carlin, Anthony Anderson, Pamela Anderson, Jenny McCarthy, Jeremy Piven, Camryn Manheim, Ja Rule, dozens of rap stars, and Leslie Nielsen as the President of the US. There's no need to have seen the first two
Scary Movie flicks--though a few of the characters recur, the movie leapfrogs from gag to goofy gag, plundering
The Ring,
Signs and
The Others as needed. It's silly and slapdash, but with a decent dose of laughs.
