Directed by David Zucker, Scary Movie 4 follows Cindy Campbell as she cares for an elderly woman living in a haunted house. Soon, Cindy crosses paths with Tom Ryan, a widowed father dealing with mysterious crop circles and an impending alien invasion. The film blends multiple horror and science-fiction parodies, including deadly game traps inspired by Saw and extraterrestrial chaos based on War of the Worlds. Unlike earlier entries, the humor focuses on exaggerated slapstick, rapid-fire jokes, and political satire. Although critics gave negative reviews, the film performed well at the box office. Its financial success proved that the Scary Movie franchise still had commercial power, even as audience interest in parody films began to decline.
