Taking shots at the latest crop of block-busters, SCARY MOVIE 3 irreverently roasts "The Ring," "Signs," "Matrix Reloaded," "Eight Mile," "The Others" and more, as well as pop culture trends such as "American Idol." The film brings director David Zucker back to the genre he helped create with the classics "Airplane!," "Naked Gun," "Naked Gun 2 1/2" and "Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult." The cast of SCARY MOVIE 3 includes Anna Faris as eager anchorwoman Cindy Campbell; Charlie Sheen as the aliens-attracting farmer Tom and Denise Richards as his hapless wife Annie; Eddie Griffin as Orpheus and Queen Latifah as The Oracle, Aunt Shaneequa; Pamela Anderson and Jenny McCarthy as Catholic School Girls; Leslie Nielsen as the President of The United States; Simon Rex as rap-star wannabe George; Jeremy Piven as reporter Ross Giggins; Camryn Manheim as the formidable Trooper Champlin; Regina Hall as eerie school teacher Brenda Meeks; Anthony Anderson as rap promoter Mahalik; as well as George Carlin. Fat Joe, Simon Cowell, Method Man, Redman, Macy Gray, Master P., Ja Rule, D.L. Hughley, Wu Tang Clan and The Coors Twins. The producer is Robert K. Weiss. -- © Dimension Films [More]

...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)
