2006, Ep. 11: "SCARY MOVIE 4" (with the Weekly Podcast Massacre!)

from Box Office GROSS: The Top 50 Hit Films of 2006 · host Brian Schmid

We bring back the rowdy hosts of Weekly Podcast Massacre to help us pick apart the SCARY MOVIE franchise, a series with zero defensibly good movies but two films near and dear to our hearts because of their ragged, youthful charm. Unfortunately, we're covering one of the other ones: the lifeless, inert SCARY MOVIE 4. We discuss the film's one good sequence (involving a SAW parody starring Shaq shooting free throws to help free Dr. Phil), followed by 100 minutes of stone-face tedium. We delve into the much better films Zucker and Co. are homaging, our desire for Anna Faris and Regina Hall to be in better things, Girls Next Door completism, the inexplicable run of mid-level rapper cameos and references, and a 10-minute treatise on The Book of Henry.This was so so SO much fun, and we'd love for you to check it out![[[Midwst emo sample by prod. pekarot]]]Brian's Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/SchmanthonyP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brian's Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bsky.app/profile/schmanthonyp.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rob's Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bsky.app/profile/wormsgreenrealm.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rob's Substack: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://artofilliterates.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Weekly Podcast Massacre: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-weekly-podcast-massacre/id1575641950⁠WPM's Twitter: ⁠https://x.com/WeeklyMassacre⁠WPM's Bluesky: ⁠https://bsky.app/profile/weeklymassacre.bsky.social⁠Theme Song: "Any Day Can Be Bicycle Day" by Ether Driver ( ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://etherdiver.bandcamp.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ )
