Review

yes, i’ve seen them all. this one is the worst of the bunch and i think that’s, in part, due to the fact that the wayans brothers weren’t involved at all. this one references fewer films that the previous ones and isn’t all that biting in terms of its pop culture references. the main storyline borrows from the grudge, war of the worlds, and the village. the humor just wasn’t as edgy and fresh as it is in the first three films. the premise still has plenty of bite – horror films and popular culture are always ripe for this kind of mockery – it’s just that this one falls plenty short.
