"It's the most offensive movie ever made." The star of 'Scary Movie' recounts a scene so tough that they had to cut it from the edit

In Pink Flamingos, Divine picked up a dog feces from the ground and ate it. In Salò or the 120 Days of Sodom, the audience left the theater vomiting. In Cannibal Holocaust, some believed they were watching a snuff film. I could go on like this for hours, listing some of the most genuinely controversial films in history, and, of course, Scary Movie would not appear. However, for its protagonist, what they have done is break with everything definitively. It is what it is, I suppose. Offense after offense. Watch out, because I didn’t make this up: it is, genuinely, something […]

In Pink Flamingos, Divine picked up a dog feces from the ground and ate it. In Salò or the 120 Days of Sodom, the audience left the theater vomiting. In Cannibal Holocaust, some believed they were watching a snuff film. I could go on for hours, listing some of the most genuinely controversial films in history, and, of course, Scary Movie would not appear. However, for its protagonist, what they have done is break with everything definitively. It is what it is, I suppose.

Offense after offense

Be careful, because I didn’t make this up: it is, genuinely, something she herself said after revealing a scene that was cut from the movie in which she parodied Melania Trump and her Be Best campaign: “There’s a moment when I’m really drunk… I’m in my van, I look in the rearview mirror and say ‘Be the best, Cindy Campbell. Be the best. It didn’t make it into the movie, but I liked my little nod there.”

In case you don’t know what it refers to, Be Best was a campaign by the First Lady that used the slogan from 2018 to 2021, focused on cyberbullying (to tackle it, not to promote it, you never know). The truth is that the joke isn’t the funniest, but she is sure it would have broken molds and angered the Republicans: “What are you going to do? Are you going to get mad at Cindy? I’m in a movie that is genuinely the most offensive ever made, and I’m the star. And I participate in offensive ideas. I think I can do whatever I want, it freed me.”

Eh, it has been the number 1 movie in its opening weekend and the best start of its saga, how am I going to teach him what is or isn’t? If the level has dropped so much that this is the offense, well, what can we do.


The box office is going to take another turn and continues to disrupt Hollywood. Not thanks to He-man, but to a simple comedy

With each passing month, it becomes clearer and clearer that the old hegemony of big releases turning into big box office hits is, at this point, dead and buried. And everything seems to indicate that the monumental impact of The Mandalorian and Grogu is just the first of many that we will experience in the coming weeks, overshadowed by smaller works that, to the surprise of shareholders, have managed to resonate with the audience. In other words: things are changing, and those who do not get on the train will be left behind. A box office […]

With each passing month, it becomes clearer and clearer that the old hegemony of big releases turning into major box office hits is, at this point, dead and buried. And it seems that the monumental hit of The Mandalorian and Grogu is just the first of many that we are going to experience in the coming weeks, sidelined by smaller works that, to the surprise of shareholders, have managed to resonate with the audience. In other words: things are changing, and those who do not get on the train will be left behind.

A Box Office of Laughter

As analysts deduce, Scary Movie, the sixth installment of the parody franchise, is set to make a grand return after 13 years on hold. It is estimated that this first weekend will generate 70 million dollars worldwide, of which 40 million will come from the U.S. box office. In other words: with a budget of 30 million, it would yield immediate profits. But for every face, there is a tough, very tough flip side.

And that is the one for He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, which is estimated to make 30 million in the United States and no more than 50 worldwide, a complete failure considering it cost 200 million. Ugh. Really, is there an audience for a nostalgic-but-modern movie of this franchise? The answer lies in the upcoming supposed reboot of She-Ra. In other words, no way. It’s not going to happen.

And where is the audience going? Well, to see Backrooms and Obsession, in what has been called “the YouTuber attack.” But for YouTubers, those behind the Australian animated series The Amazing Digital Circus, which will premiere its last episode in a limited way and supposedly will take more than anyone had predicted. Hollywood is not dead: finally, after years of waiting, it has evolved.

The trailer for the movie includes numerous references to contemporary works, such as The Sinners, Weapons, Terrifier 3, The Substance, and the popular Netflix series Wednesday. This diversity of tributes suggests that Scary Movie 6 will aim to mock a wide range of cultural elements, maintaining the parodic essence that characterizes the franchise.

The new installment will mark the return of several familiar faces who have brought the characters to life in previous installments. Anna Faris, Regina Hall, Marlon and Shawn Wayans, Jon Abrahams, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Dave Sheridan, Anthony Anderson, and Chris Elliott will once again be part of the cast, which will undoubtedly generate nostalgia among fans of the saga. The film is set to premiere on June 12, 2026, a date that ensures a long period of anticipation for enthusiasts.

It is noteworthy that the five previous films have grossed over 830 million dollars worldwide. However, the last installment, Scary Movie 5, did not meet expectations, grossing only 78 million and achieving a discouraging 4% of positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Therefore, there is great anticipation about whether this new film will manage to revitalize the franchise and draw audiences back to theaters.
