This paper explores the Scary Movie film series (2000–2013) as a pivotal cultural artifact in the landscape of early 21st-century comedy. By analyzing the franchise through the lens of intertextuality and genre hybridization, this study indexes the series’ progression from sharp satire to absurd pastiche. The paper examines how the franchise codified the "spoof" movie formula, the implications of its reliance on pop-culture references over narrative coherence, and its legacy within the broader context of the "Scream" meta-horror renaissance. The turn of the millennium marked a paradigm shift in the horror genre. Following the release of Wes Craven’s Scream (1996), horror films became self-reflexive, acknowledging the tropes of the genre within the narrative itself. It was within this meta-context that the Wayans brothers developed Scary Movie (2000). Marketed with the tagline "No mercy. No shame. No sequel," the film became an unexpected box office juggernaut.
