Movies like Scary Movie, ranked

1. Scary Movie 2 (2001)

This sequel amplifies the same rapid-fire horror-movie takedowns with fresh targets, swapping slasher conventions for haunted-house tropes while maintaining the anarchic comedic energy and gleefully crude humor that defined the original.

2. Scary Movie 4 (2006)

The film escalates the absurdist mayhem by spoofing blockbuster franchises like War of the Worlds and The Ring with the same rapid-fire gag sensibility and willingness to lampoon horror tropes until they collapse into pure silliness.

3. Scary Movie 5 (2013)

The same irreverent ensemble cast returns to shred through found-footage and possession tropes with the same rapid-fire joke density and willingness to brutalize horror conventions that defined the original.

4. Scary Movie 3 (2003)

Director David Zucker cranks up the absurdist parody engine with rapid-fire gags skewering horror and sci-fi blockbusters through physical comedy and celebrity impressions that match the original's anarchic comedic momentum.

5. Scream (1996)

The self-aware meta-humor about slasher tropes and final-girl clichés anchors both films' blend of genuine scares and comedic subversion of horror conventions.

6. Freddy vs. Jason (2003)

Freddy vs. Jason escalates the slasher formula that Scary Movie deconstructs by pitting two horror icons against each other in gleefully over-the-top set pieces that prioritize spectacle and dark humor over genuine scares.

7. Not Another Teen Movie (2001)

Directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller deploy the same rapid-fire parody assault on genre conventions, layering crude humor with specific jabs at beloved '80s and '90s films that defined a generation.

8. Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022)

This film deconstructs horror tropes with the same razor-sharp comedic timing, using a whodunit setup to mine absurdity from characters' panicked misreadings of genre conventions.
