Movie Poster and Trailer Released for Scary Movie 5. Try to Contain Your Excitement.
I know you all just couldn’t’ wait for the next installment of Scary Movie. Can you believe they are actually up to number 5? I stopped watching after 2, but now I’m back. The trailer looks funny enough but the rumors of Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan have put this movie on a lot of people’s radars. Sheen and Lohan have a scene when they appear in the bed with each other. Apparently filming that scene somehow led to Sheen breaking Lindsay off $100K.
The last installment in the “Scary Movie” franchise was in 2006. This leaves 7 years of pop culture for the movie to feast on. Just some of S5’s targets to parody in this film are:
- Inception
- Black Swan
- The Hunger Games
- Mama
- Rise of the Planet of the Apes,
- Honey Boo Boo
…..just to name a few.
The stars are also lined up. In the trailer you will see Sheen and Lohan as well as Kat Williams, but that is just a start. The film will also include Kendra Wilkinson, Heather Locklear, Mike Tyson, Jasmine Guy and Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Sheree Whitfield. I guess I use the term “Star” loosely.
Collectively the four previous Scary Movie have grossed over $818 million, just in case you were wondering how they can justify a 5th. None of the previous films had a budget over $45,000, with the first one costing just $19,000 to make. That’s just good business.
The film is scheduled to be released on April 19, 2013.
Here is the trailer.
