Scary Movie
Fright-inducing cinema
Scary Movie is a 2000 comedy film that parodies horror movies, spawning multiple sequels.
The title has become shorthand for the spoof genre it popularized.
Lowercase, a scary movie is simply a horror film—one intended to frighten: We watched a scary movie and I couldn't sleep.
