the movie isnt a spoof of scary movie. it was in fact made before scary movie but was unfortunatley delayed. any way the movie mainly spoofs Scream and I know what you did last summer, but it also spoofs other movies. examples i know are: grease, the breakfast club, friday the 13th and dawsons creek. also the principal is probably a spoof of Prince.

There's also a blatant spoof of Child's Play.

Boatloads of things rooted in pop culture are parodied/spoofed throughout this film.

Child's Play - which has been mentioned previously
Scream - which should be obvious
I Know What You Did... - also obvious
Friday The Thirteenth - again ^
The Faculty - Not so much the alien invasion ordeal but the character of Martina Martinez seems to highly resemble Clea Duvall's character from that film
Baywatch - Lifeguard sequences in the pool, Artie Lange as "Mr. Hasselhoff"
American Pie - References to band camp make this one rather obvious
VH1's Pop-Up Video - Parodied as "Chop-Up Video" during the final chase sequence
Scooby Doo Mysteries - This is a slight stretch but I think this is where they borrowed the entire mask sight gag from at the end, not to mention a few other things
Grease - which again, was mentioned
Dawson's Creek - again, previously mentioned
Ferris Bueller's Day Off - This is only in passing during the Sex Ed. sequences, taking the play on Ben Stein's famous "Bueller... Bueller..." line
Teaching Mrs. Tingle - fairly obvious when you reach the Mrs. Tingle scene
Cherry Falls - The high school name seems to reflect this (you know, minus the bulimia part) but I could be mistaken on this one

and as a sidenote, Principal Interest or the Artist Formerly Known as Principal is an all too obvious parody of popular R&B singer Prince.

I'm not quite sure about The Breakfast Club parody, but then again I've only ever seen bits and pieces of it (The Breakfast Club, that is)... so it may be in there and it may not be.

There's a ton more that I'd likely have to sit down and jot on paper to make sure I cover thoroughly but those are some that should be easily recognisable.

ALSO someone might be able to clarify better but I'm fairly certain the car chase scene in the garage was parodying something but the only guess I'm being drawn toward is that of Christine, but the car was being driven and not possessed so if anyone has any thoughts to share on the possible parody there, I'd definitely be interested to know them.

The Christine parody pops up right after the Grease one, after the guys call Slab a fag for breaking into the song "Greased Frightening". When he's alone in the garage, car lights pop on, and the killer starts driving towards him in a car that looks exactly like Christine, playing oldies music, I believe... and driving towards him... and driving towards him... for most of the scene, Slab's backed up against a garage door, like the heavy guy that bites it in Christine.

I think the car chase was simply part of the I Know What You Did spoof. The rich ass in that movie gets run down by his own car driven by the killer.

also during the "grease" spoof the movie Christine was spoofed i believe when the car was coming at him and he kept screaming

The name of the secretary is Mrs Peacock, which is a character from the film and game "Clue".

[–] invisiblehumanbeing 18 years ago

They also make fun of "Deliverance". In the scene where Barbara is trapped in the garage door and the killer and her dad (?) use the garage door openers to close and open the door the song "Duelling Banjos" is played (probably one of the most remembered movie sounds in history).

I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.

Someone said "at the end when the killer is repeatedly shot but still manages to live" which sounds like "Taxi Driver."

reply

[–] TheMonkofDestiny 17 years ago

That seems like it'd be stretching it for an explicit connection since it seemed to be of more a spoof/take-off on the whole "Remember in scary movies that just when you think the killer is dead, he always comes back to life at the last second" mentality.

Reservoir Dogs - The scene where the group is all walking in slow motion after we meet Doughy and Hagitha for the first time.

Airplane - numerous, including, "Here it comes! 'And Don't call me Shirley'!"

Weekend at Bernie's - when Principal/Coolio is found dead, they say something like "Let's get down there before the police and play 'Weekend at Bernie's' with him!"

Ferrigno's Hulk / Wolfman movies - Slab's end scene

Chef Boyardee - "mmm! Beefy!"

My Girl - bee sting death

Home Alone - sled down stairs

Patty Duke Show - identical twin cousins

Starsky & Hutch car

Porky's - numerous: shower peeping, "I'm not a virgin, anymore!"

and I thought I remembered a scene at the end with Doughy walking away, resembling end of "Unusual Suspects", but that was Arquette in "Scream", wasn't it?

Add "THREE'S COMPANY"to the list. The guy doing the sock puppets is an obvious Joh Ritter lookalike. And when Dawson runs the Pamela and Tommie movie he talks about the wallpaper etc. Whenever Janet or Chissy put the moves on Jack, he always deflected them with similair lines.

That's the end of Scary Movie, when we find out that Doofie is the killer. They copy the final scene from The USUAL (not Unusual) Suspects when we find out Spacey is Keyser Soze and he drives off with Koboyashi.

Come now, let us all genuflect before Lamb of God, for to them we owe our metal souls.

Add to the comprensive list provided by others -- Chariots of Fire: scene on the track, running in slow motion, music similar to Vangelis theme from that movie.

My Bloody Valentine (The original, obviously) is in there. I forget where, but I remember there was a reference because I watched MBV right before I watched this.

Something About Mary, briefly. And I guess Dead Man Walking (even though I never did catch that movie), during the scene between Bonner and his brother on death row.

As far as the mentions of Pretty In Pink or whatever that Molly Ringwald movie was, the girl who played the lesbian had a scene in the principal's office right after she's been introduced to the new guy where she looks almost identical to Molly Ringwald, although I don't ever remember seeing MR do the things to a sucker that she did.

By the way, what movie's being spoofed in the part where the kid flashbacks to his father beating him while he's licking a salt lick dressed as a reindeer, then he runs off and his dad lets a gigantic one out that blows up the whole house? I know it's a spoof of something especially from the shots of the cat wall clock they kept showing.

Also Mentos commercials.
