We know you’ve been waiting for this one. In the new Scary Movie, Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans re-join Anna Faris and Regina Hall in the popular movie series for the first time in 25 years. Also starring Kenan Thompson, Damon Wayans Jr., Sydney Park and more, Scary Movie opens in the Philippines only in cinemas June 10.  


Official synopsis: 


Twenty-six years after outrunning a suspiciously familiar masked killer (“Ghostface”), the Core Four are back in the killer’s crosshairs and no horror movie IP is safe. Marlon Wayans (“Shorty”), Shawn Wayans (“Ray”), Anna Faris (“Cindy”), and Regina Hall (“Brenda”) reunite in Scary Movie alongside returning favorites and fresh faces to slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final. Nothing is sacred. No trope survives. Every line gets crossed. The Wayans are back to cancel the Cancel Culture.
