The Wayans brothers were last involved in the franchise in 2001, with the second film in the series.

The franchise famously parodies popular horror movies like Scream, The Blair Witch Project, and The Sixth Sense, blending scares with laughs. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how the Wayans brothers will update their comedy style for today’s audience, and they have high hopes for another round of spooky fun.

The first film, released in 2000, starred actors Anna Faris and Regina Hall alongside the Wayans brothers and quickly gained popularity for its humorous take on the horror genre.
