Does 'Scary Movie' Hold Up After 20 Years?
The Screen Queens are lit-erally screaming as they kick off spooky season with the ultimate horror-comedy cult classic: Scary Movie. In this episode, they’re breaking down the cultural role of parody, debating how far is too far, and why the “gay villain” trope needs to finally retire. Jack admits he has no clue who one of the film’s biggest stars is (and that he has basically no pop culture knowledge pre-2005). They explore why the Wayans Brothers sat out the sequels, if modern viewers would get the jokes, and whether Scary Movie 6 can live up to the original madness. But the biggest question on their minds-did this movie age well, or is it gloriously frozen in early-2000s absurdity?
Next week, they’re hitching their broomsticks with a re-watch of Hocus Pocus! Watch along and let us know which Sander’s sister you’re channeling this year! At the end of October, they’ll close out Spooky Season by casting their votes for the ultimate Halloween movie of all time.
