Scary Movie Franchise:
* The movies mainly specialize in spoofing current, popular horror films
* Several mid and late 1990's movies have been spoofed
* Movies spoofed within the text are :
-Halloween
-I know what you did last summer
-The sixth sense
-The blair witch project
-The usual suspects
-The matrix
*Movies tagline is 'No mercy. No Shame. No Sequel**' The last reference was based upon popular horror movies becoming long running franchises
*Scary Movie 2 was released with the tagline 'We Lied'
*The movie followed with sequels Scary Movie 3 & 4
*The original title for 'Scream' was supposed to be 'Scary Movie' - This was later used as a spoof of the original scream film

The movie is relevant to the post modern society because of the fact that it contains elements of being ironic. The reason for this is because the texts refers to many fdifferent movies which the audiencwe would have already identified with. This helps creeate the spoof aspect of the movie creating comedy for the audince through the actions the characters take.
