Even Madea Doesn’t Like What She Sees From ‘Scary Movie 5’

Published

Bossip has shared 4 images from Dimension Films’ Scary Movie 5, which opens in theaters April 12. The images, shared inside, don’t really show much other than the film is jam-packed with “hilarious” co-stars. Even Mabel “Madea” Simmons isn’t impressed.

Ashley Tisdale is the lead, while it also features Terry Crews, Marisa Saks, Erica Ash, Lindsay Lohan, Charlie Sheen, Simon Rex, Molly Shannon, Roland Powell, Heather Locklear and Katt Williams.

It’s from the same producer as the third and fourth Scary Movie sequels. In the film from director Malcolm Lee, “Snooty, aloof, imperious, and oversexed French dance company director Pierre is putting on a new production. Jody (Tisdale), a Caucasian late-20s mother of two and her late-20s African American friend Kendra (Ash) are both vying for the lead in the production. Jody’s extremely controlling former dancer mother is determined that Jody will have the brilliant career that eluded her. The highly skilled mid-30s Diva veteran dancer with the company, Heather Daltry (Shannon), gets cut from the production and goes berserk.

Scary Movie 5, which is said to be a reboot of sorts, will spoof: Black Swan, Paranormal Activity, Rise of the Planet of the Apes and 127 Hours.
