Scary Movie 6 brings back the Wayans family after 25 years away from the franchise. Directed by Michael Tiddes and written by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans, and Rick Alvarez, the movie is being billed as a legacy sequel to the first two films – but does it live up to expectations?
Unfortunately, reviews for the horror parody have been decidedly negative, debuting to a low 20% Rotten Tomatoes score. While it's not being called an all-out failure, several critics have been lukewarm in their critiques, saying few jokes land and the parody doesn't always feel timely. This being said, there is a fair amount of praise for the surprise celebrity cameos and this is not the lowest Rotten Tomatoes score in the franchise, either.
