Not only does the film not work as a parody but it also fails as a slapstick also

Scary Movie 5
A; Comedy
Dir: David Zucker
Starring: Charlie Sheen, Lindsay Lohan, Ashley Tisdale
Rating:

If you’re looking for an outdated theme, stale jokes, tired sight gags, unfunny characters and clichéd plotting, then Scary Movie 5 is the movie for you. The fifth installment of the surprisingly profitable franchise has it all to compete in the pantheon of worst movie sequels ever made.

The fact that this movie has Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan is bad enough, but to see them create ‘comedy’ is a whole new level of torture. The film opens with the two in bed, making love gymnasium style, a lame spoof of Paranormal Activity kicks in to foreshadow 75 minutes of sodomy of comedy. The plot, like the other films in the franchise is simply an assortment of various big banner films and exists sorely to make fun out of them in the most juvenile possible way.
