Overview
About the Film
Scary Movie 2 is a 2001 American horror comedy directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans, the sequel to his 2000 hit. The film parodied The Haunting, The Exorcist, Poltergeist, What Lies Beneath, and various other horror films while maintaining the first film's formula of relentless, aggressively crude humor. Chris Elliott's caretaker Hanson, a servant with a grotesquely deformed hand that he kept putting in the food, was a memorably disgusting comedic creation.
Scary Movie 2 earned $141 million worldwide on a $45 million budget. The sequel maintained the original's aggressively lowbrow formula while expanding the scope of its parody targets, demonstrating that the Wayans Brothers' brand of extreme, boundary-pushing comedy had a reliable audience despite critical disdain. The franchise would continue with three more sequels under different creative teams.
