Dimension Films have released the first trailer for the next installment of their horror comedy spoof franchise, Scary Movie 5. First impressions are that this is most likely a train wreck of a flick, the trailer highlighting the overuse of clichés and slapstick antics for cheap laughs. The flick was originally scheduled to open in April of 2012, until the Weinstein Company realized that no-one had actually made it yet and scrambled to pull things together for a 2013 release. The “big celebrity cameo” has Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan in a sex scene which attempts to make light of their much publicized career troubles.
Scary Movie 5 spoofs films like Black Swan and Inception ( for some reason ), and takes on the Paranormal Activity franchise – the reigning champ of the found footage horror genre. In the lead role is Ashley Tisdale who’s taking over from Anna Faris, with Malcom D. Lee (Undercover Brother) directing.
The film also stars Jerry O’Connell, Kate Walsh, Terry Crews, Heather Locklear, and Katt Williams.
Scary Movie 5 opens April 19th, 2013.
