My pussy has gone crazy is the best line I've ever heard

This is the raunchiest of the Scary Movies. If you thought the original was "too much", well, this one will truly give you more reasons to avoid it as honestly, it's full of them. The comedy might have been a little too over-the-top and repetitive at times, as it seemed like this one tried really hard to please the viewer when the first one just really didn't care.

There were a lot of funny parts in this film, such as the opening song, the Charlie's Angels spoof scene, the scene where Buddy gives back Cindy's book, and Cindy singing in the car scene. Admittedly I'm not actually sure what horror films this one was parodying so I can't really comment on that.

I think Cindy was a lot better in this one, I enjoyed her more. It's like she really knew how to use the "ditzy" oblivious character more this time around.

Sadly this one isn't as funny as the first, they usually aren't. They had a vision and created gold, this one felt like it was just Piggybacking off the first, only this time the stuffed it full of sex jokes. As well, this one was a lot more gross! Some of the jokes were more focused on gross-out humour, which really didn't get many laughs from me. Especially the ones with the butler, I just got the ick throughout all of his scenes. 

If you liked the first, you'll probably like this one, just don't expect the same level of humour.

"Father McFeely: How is she?

Mrs. Voorhees: It's gotten worse Father. She won't eat. She won't talk. The child won't let me touch her.

Father McFeely: Yes, sometimes you have to give them candy."
