Synopsis
The comedy spoof series that knows no fear is at it again with its funniest instalment yet: SCARY MOVIE 3. Taking shots at the latest crop of blockbusters, SCARY MOVIE 3 irreverently roasts THE RING, SIGNS, MATRIX RELOADED, 8 MILE, THE OTHERS and more, as well as pop-culture trends such as [TV series] AMERICAN IDOL. The film brings director David Zucker back to the genre he helped create with the classics AIRPLANE!, NAKED GUN, NAKED GUN 2 1/2 and NAKED GUN 33 1/3: THE FINAL INSULT.
It all begins when roving reporter Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris) sets out to find a hard news story in the middle of television sweeps. She soon uncovers an outrageous onslaught of globe-threatening developments including alien invaders, killer videotapes, freaky crop circles, prophecies of The One, eerie-eyed children, ambitious white rappers and even a run-in with Michael Jackson. Faced with conspiracies of massive proportions, and a crew of very strange people following her around, Cindy must fight to stop evil from taking over the world yet again - all while sparing no plot line from SCARY MOVIE 3's assault of fast-flying twists that blow the lid off the original movie scenes.
The cast of SCARY MOVIE 3 includes Anna Faris as eager anchorwoman Cindy Campbell; Charlie Sheen as the aliens-attracting farmer Tom and Denise Richards as his hapless wife Annie; Eddie Griffin as Orpheus and Queen Latifah as the Oracle, Aunt Shaneequa; Pamela Anderson and Jenny McCarthy as Catholic School Girls; Leslie Nielsen as the President of The United States; Simon Rex as rap-star wannabe George; Jeremy Piven as reporter Ross Giggins; Camryn Manheim as the formidable Trooper Champlin; Regina Hall as eerie school teacher Brenda Meeks; Anthony Anderson as rap promoter Mahalik; as well as George Carlin. Fat Joe, Simon Cowell, Method Man, Redman, Macy Gray, Master P, Ja Rule, D L Hughley, Wu Tang Clan and The Coors Twins. It is written by Craig Mazin and Pat Proft and produced by Robert K Weiss.
