Reviews for Scary Movie 3
Dials back a bit on the gross-out, bodily fluid humor of the first two entries...
...the additional stuff makes the resultant movie a tad funnier and more resourceful than before and a mite more successful. (Special Unrated 3.5 Version)
A painfully long extended scene between Sheen and Richards was mercifully cut, simply because it is just gross.
