Scary Movie Box Office Day 43: Adds $72,000 as Domestic Total Hits $107.8 Million
The Wayans family-led horror-comedy continues to scare up laughs and cash, proving the franchise's enduring appeal with a massive global haul.

Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Anna Faris, and Regina Hall are back, proving that after 26 years, no horror movie is safe from their signature brand of parody. Scary Movie (2026) resurrects the iconic franchise, bringing the laughs and scares for a new generation.
Directed by Michael Tiddes, this 96-minute horror-comedy reunites the 'Core Four'—Cindy (Anna Faris), Brenda (Regina Hall), Shorty Meeks (Marlon Wayans), and Ray (Shawn Wayans)—who find themselves once again targeted by a suspiciously familiar masked killer. The premise promises a fresh onslaught of spoofs, taking aim at the expansive horror movie intellectual property that has emerged since the original films. The supporting cast includes Damon Wayans Jr. as Agent Underwood, Gregg Wayans as Brad, Kim Wayans as Nurse Ratchett, and Benny Zielke as Jess, rounding out a comedic ensemble built to deliver the franchise's hallmark meta-humor. It's a full-circle moment for a series that defined a genre of parody.
