Plot summary
Sequel to Scary Movie in which Megan Voorhees (Natasha Lyonne), is possessed and two priests, Father McFeely (James Woods) and Father Harris (Andy Richter), must drive the demon out, but the exorcism doesn't go as planned. A year later, survivors Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris), Ray Wilkins (Shawn Wayans), and Shorty (Marlon Wayans) and Brenda Meeks (Regina Hall), are at college, trying to forget the incidents that occurred last Halloween. Cindy is falling for Buddy (Christopher Masterson), who loves to give wedgies, and Ray is still confused about his sexuality. Professor Oldman (Tim Curry) and his paralyzed assistant, Dwight (David Cross), have decided to do a research study at Hell House, the house where the bad exorcism took place, and disguise it as a sleep disorder study. Chaos starts as soon as Cindy arrives and meets the creepy caretaker (Chris Elliott) with the odd hand, but the house has some deep dark secrets that the group has to solve, even if they are scary or disgusting. Scary Movie 3 follows.

Trivia
While the "Basketball scene" was a parody of a Nike commercial played during the game, most people don't realize that a character's wheelchair is actually 'playing' a song from the cult-film Manos: The Hands of Fate. The squeaks of the wheelchair mimic the melody played whenever the character Torgo walks.
