Directed by David Zucker, Scary Movie 3 follows its two predecessors well. The movie uses spoofs of horror and sci-fi films to create humor on the big screen.

It obviously stars the same goofy, blonde chick the other movies do, but it has some new big name co-stars this time. These include Jenny McCarthey, Pamela Lee Anderson, Leslie Nielson, Charlie Sheen, Ja Rule, Master P, Method Man, Red Man, Fat Joe, Macy Gray, Wu Tang Clan, Eddie Griffin, D.L Hughley, Queen Latifa, the Coors Original twins and the always beautiful Denise Richards.

The movie begins in a bedroom scene, taken from The Ring, with Pamela and Jenny in school outfits, pillow fighting, and making a little joke, or should I say big joke, about boobs.

The movie's focus is on some strange videotape that kills anyone who watches it, as well as an alien invasion of a small farm that becomes a big issue in Washington D.C.

The movie also adds humor down the road by spoofing other films including The Matrix, The Others and 8 Mile, but you don't need to have seen any of these movies to get the full effect of the humor.

If you find the joke about the Catholic priest and the young boy being slammed around the entire movie hysterical, then you really need to know nothing about any of these movies.

Cindy Campbell plays a news reporter trying to discover the mystery behind the strange videotape, while Tom (Charlie Sheen) tries to figure out why aliens are invading his farm. If we aren't watching these two plots unfold, we are watching President Harris (Leslie Neilson) try to formulate a plot to stop the alien invasion.

Scary Movie 3 is much funnier and better directed than its sequels. The movie still may seem dumb to some, but it delivers several big laughs throughout the film.
