Scary Movie 2
When a vengeful spirit returns to the cursed Hell House, a group of college survivors must confront their darkest fears and battle demonic forces before the mansion claims new victims.
“No more mercy. No more shame. No more sequels - honest! - We lied.”
Synopsis
While the original parodied slasher flicks like *Scream*, Keenen Ivory Wayans created *Scary Movie* as a comedic take on the horror genre, using it to satirize popular films and tropes of the time.

Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

✅ Made its money back — grossed 3.1× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
