Customer Reviews of Shriek if You Know What I Did Last Friday the 13th

Primesuspect, Doughy Primesuspect
I must start by saying that i would give Scary Movie 3 out of 5. I like it's bigger production values, but it relies too much on sex jokes, which, although funny, get really really lame very quickly.
Shriek was produced before Scary Movie but pulled out of a theater release (in England, anyway) because it would have been crushed by Scary Movie. And upon one viewing, it was quite satisfying, but felt so incomplete or half formed, that it didnt have any validity.
Upon SECOND viewing, however, the film really sunk in. And now i keep saying Boner's excellent 'i'm never gonna get laid' line to people. Maybe i should stop doing that....
But the jokes come thick and fast. I personally couldnt stand the Dooey character in Scary Movie, but Doughy, in this film, is perfectly placed between spoof and the real thing. Hagatha Utslay (her second name appears to be slut in pig latin) has a more functional and concise part than her Scary Movie counterpart, and although the production values are clearly... not high (look at the cringeworthy title screen for proof).

Most importantly, however, is that they have more real jokes than any other film... ever. A few of them are total laugh out loud material, too. Doughy's 'it's just a harmless schoolboy prank' line (talking about the murder) had me in stitches, so to speak.
Buy it. It's nice to have a movie that will just make you smile whenever you see it.

My kind of comedy horror spoof
While watching the Showtime free preview weekend, I caught a glimpse of the Scary Movie trailer. It looked liked a funny parody, so I rented it. Big mistake. If I had known about the extreme use of gross-out humor before hand, I wouldn't have touched it with a ten-foot-pole. As it was, I ended up being sorely disappointed and disgusted by the movie. There was very little in the movie that I found funny.

Yesterday, I found myself looking at the box for Shriek at a nearby Hastings. Fears of it being just like Scary Movie almost kept me from renting it. Fortunately, I didn't listen to those fears but, instead listened to my inner desire to locate a funny horror movie parody. After watching just 10 minutes, I knew that I was in for a treat.

Sidenote: A common misconception among viewers seems to be that Shriek ripped-off Scary Movie. The truth is, Shriek was produced before Scary Movie was.

Warning ***** Might contain some SPOILERS.******

This movie is silly slapstick in the vein of Spaceballs and Airplane. It spoofs so many different movies, including: Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Shining (TV mini - There is a scene that seems to parody one from the Shining book and the TV mini-series between Horace Derwent and the guy in the wolf mask. As well as, the common "redrum" and topiary.), American Pie, Christine, Grease, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, etc. Not to mention some non-movie spoofs, in fact, two of my favorite moments were the Mentos parody and the Pop Up Video.

A delightful treat for those who enjoy silly slapstick. If you enjoyed Airplane and Spaceballs, you might want to give this one a look see. Personally, I give it a grade of 4 out 5 stars.
