Scary Movie 2 is like the majority of sequels: alright movies, but pale in comparison to the original. There are several things wrong with this movie. First, its way too short, less than 1 hour and a quarter. Also, there are less jokes than the original. Second, some of the jokes are very badly worked (most notably, the rip off of the Nike basketball ad: all that build-up and a bad joke at the end. Third, even if it is a spoof and not a horror movie, there really should be a larger death toll. Finally, the plot really lets it down. Weren't Ray and Brenda killed in the first movie? Just who are Theo and that one played by Tori Spelling? They're not introduced to the audience, they just walk up to Cindy and start talking to her a few scenes into the film. I know a spoof doesnt really need a great plot, but when IMDBs two line summary would do for a full, in-depth review of the movie's plot, you start to worry. Dont get me wrong, there are some excellent jokes and the actors are alright, which makes the movie worth going to see, just don't expect to enjoy it as much as Scary Movie 1. 6/10
