About this episode

The B.O. Boys discuss the original Scary Movie and its impact on the careers of Seltzer & Friedberg.

To kick off our first ever bonus miniseries on THE FILMS OF AARON SELTZER AND JASON FRIEDBERG, The B.O. Boys look back at the original Scary Movie (2000). This Wayans Brothers comedy blockbuster launched the careers of (co-writers) Seltzer & Friedberg... but how does it hold up? We rewatched and are ready to talk about Deputy Doofy, the introduction to Anna Faris and Regina Hall, the Wayans' spoof legacies, and Pat's original experience seeing Scary Movie in a Manhattan theater. Plus we break down the box office of Scary Movie's July 2000 opening weekend!
