This sequel to a box-office sleeper hit that spoofed teen slasher flicks takes its cues from haunted house and possession films, particularly
The Haunting (1999) and
The Exorcist (1973). Although many of the first film's main characters were homicide victims,
Marlon Wayans,
Shawn Wayans, and
Anna Faris return anyway to "re-possess" their roles for this follow-up in which four students are invited by their professor (
Tim Curry) to his haunted mansion, Hell House, for a weekend sleep-deprivation study. Providing the sleep deprivation, however, is a series of murderous, supernatural goings-on.
Scary Movie 2 co-stars
Tori Spelling,
Andy Richter,
Christopher Masterson,
Kathleen Robertson,
James Woods,
Chris Elliott, and
Natasha Lyonne.
