I have never liked any of the Scary Movie series, but a close friend wanted to see it for his birthday. I felt weird listening to people laugh at really dumb and unfunny jokes. For being a comedy, there's lots of political stuff over ICE, Trump, etc. But the thing that really stood out and disturbed me:

There's a scene that makes fun of The Substance (2024 horror movie), with an imitation called "The Stuff." In the parody, the same body horror scene occurs with a character coming out, but holding the Epstein files. They are tossed on the floor, and the envelop has something like "Reading this will cost you your soul."

My friends just laughed at this ... I know this is just a really shitty unfunny movie that people who love slop watch ... but this scene shows something really both fucked up and powerful. It minimizes and jokes about something truly beyond horrific and fucked up, using The Substance, a movie that's obviously an allegory for Adrenochrome, Epstein and the vein parasites in the Hollywood class.

Humor and films are often weaponized to make people feel aright with things that should enrage them.
