Horror comedies have continuously been some of the most iconic and memorable films when it comes to the vast annuls of both horror films and comedy films respectively. The blending of bloodshed and horrific themes combined with a nonserious and joking tone has lent itself to a wide variety of interesting and unique explorations and possibilities in the realm of filmmaking.
While the many sequels and other spoof movies that it inspired have been largely reviled by audiences and critics alike, the original Scary Movie has a distinct charm and energy that makes its style of humor work. While it certainly hasn't aged the best in the nearly 25 years since its release, there are still many jokes that work exceptionally well, as well as the films that it parodies still being relevant to this day.
