It involves Simon Rex turning into the Incredible Hulk and shoving aliens up his rear end while Leslie Nielsen soils himself forcing D. If the theatrical ending to the movie wasn’t lame enough for you, there’s an even worse alternative ending included. Whoever edited the DVD wasn’t paying very close attention. There’s an outtake/blooper reel which contains some footage from the deleted scenes section as well. The least they could have done was take them out of the deleted scene line up, but that would have cost more money I suppose. Among them are deleted and extended scenes, some of which are no longer deleted. The list of extra features is identical to that of the Scary Movie 3 package. All you get are some extra unfunny jokes that take way too long to set up and had far too crude a pay off to make it into a PG-13 movie. Frankenstein and are praying that drunken frat boys out there would double dip for an unrated version in hopes of seeing Pamela Anderson’s floatation devices pop out of their slings. In essence they’ve raided the deleted scenes section, swept up a few of the droppings from the cutting room floor, stitched them back into the film ala Dr. Scary Movie 3.5 is a shameless recycling of the Scary Movie 3 DVD release. Too bad it’s full of flaming dog poop and we have nowhere to throw it. As the audience, we’re the ones left holding the bag. It’s been nearly fifteen years since Zucker left off his spoof legacy with Naked Gun 33 1/3 and he seems to have lost his touch.
Zucker took a backseat, letting his actors take control of the film and unfortunately most of them have absolutely no clue what they’re doing. Scary Movie 3.5 is chock full of lame joke after joke and one bad spoof after the next. The movie sucks, his performance sucks, and he seems to know it. The rest of the film you can see the pain on his face. Sheen has the honor of being in the middle of one of the film’s funnier moments involving a railroad tie, two bowling balls and statue of Jesus. They’re the only ones coming close to the kind of passable humor that made his older spoof movies enjoyable. It would seem Nielsen rewrote some of the scenes in which he appears. Spoof veterans Leslie Nielsen and Charlie Sheen, who could’ve made much better choices in projects, do their best with what they’ve got, but even they can only do so much. He’s a sort of token black rapper character that pops up from time to time to muddle things up, dragging down both the comedy and cleverness of the movie several notches. I would love to explain Anthony Andersons’s role to you except that he doesn’t really have one. She’s let off the hook as her character dies early on, replaced by a corpse that becomes the source of way too many tired physical gags. Her co-star Regina Hall also returns as Brenda Meeks. The only thing she gets to work with is a confused deer-in-the-headlights look which gets really old within the first ten minutes.
How exactly Anna Faris has been suckered into playing this limp role three times is beyond me. Anna Faris has been the leading lady for all three movies in the Scary Movie trilogy and for 3.5 she reprises her role as Cindy Campbell, the dimwitted piñata who is targeted for most of the story’s undercooked horror-gags. The movie’s biggest flaw lies with its characters and the shameful cast members tapped to play them.
