WORLD OF DEATH Ep. 59 – Mocking Death: The Tutorial / Trout
Hey WOD’ers, bust out your nerdy glasses and bad fashion sense because we’re back in high school! Why you ask? In true World of Death fashion these two short films may actually teach you a thing or two. I wish I’d had a class in the occult arts in my high school!
First up in Norman Jangot and Victor Druillet’s MOCKING DEATH: THE TUTORIAL, we get a crash course on the ins and outs of trying to persuade Death to let you live. Many techniques are shown in this instructional video, and it’s wit and subject matter would be well suited to a variety of classroom settings… Of students over the age of 18.
Next in Daniel Johnson’s TROUT, we take an unconventional approach to learning one of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies. When a sentient novelty singing fish reveals a possible affair between his girlfriend and roommate, a man wonders if he should take matters into his own hands to end the supposed relationship. Surely, this would make a great addition to any other Shakespeare adaptations shown to the lazy readers of an English classroom.
School is in session, children.

The Wayans are out to cancel the Cancel Culture with Scary Movie, and the cast assures it will do just that.
“They sort of have an across-the-board style,” Anna Faris tells EW. “It’s always been a part of the Wayans Brothers, their electricity. ‘Can we offend you? Will you still love us? Come on, you still love us, don’t you?'”
Regina Hall concurs, promising the “boundary-pushing” sixth installment in the horror parody franchise will “offend everyone.”
EW has shared a batch of behind-the-scenes images from Scary Movie, which hits theaters June 5 via Paramount.
Faris and Hall are joined by fellow franchise favorites Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, and Jon Abrahams in the legacy sequel.
The ensemble includes Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, Kenan Thompson, and Felissa Rose.
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs from a script by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
The film will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final.
Scary Movie launched in 2000, followed by Scary Movie 2 in 2001. The Wayans’ involvement ended there, but the series continued with 2003’s Scary Movie 3, 2006’s Scary Movie 4, and 2013’s Scary Movie 5.
