Scary Movie 5

Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan get together to make a sex tape with over 20 cameras in his room. They do all sorts of bedroom antics, including gymnastics, riding a horse, and having clowns jump in. Sheen is pulled into the air by a paranormal force and thrown against walls, shelves, and doors until he lands on the bed again. Frightened, Lohan decides to go home when she also flies into the air; becoming possessed she throws Sheen into the camera, killing him. The text explains that Sheen's body was found that day but he did not stop partying until days later and that his three children were found missing, Lohan was arrested, again, and a reward was put out for the missing kids.

Several months later, Ja'Marcus and D'Andre are walking in the Humboldt County woods in California, searching for cannabis to steal. Afterwards, they hide in a cabin in the woods. Inside, they see three strange creatures, later confirmed to be Sheen's children, and turn them in for the reward. The feral children are placed in isolation at a child development research center for a few months until they are deemed well enough to be returned to familial custody.

Sheen's brother Dan Sanders and his wife Jody come for them. They can only have them if they agree to stay in a large suburban middle-class home fitted with security cameras. She is reluctant to take them at first but soon adapts. In an attempt to bond with their new children, Jody auditions for a ballet performance, Swan Lake, and is given the lead, the Swan Queen.

Meanwhile, a continuing pattern of bizarre paranormal activity in their new home makes them investigate further. They eventually learn from the children that the attacks on their home are by "Mama", their mother, who is under a curse and wants them back to sacrifice both herself and the children. Maria, the Hispanic live-in maid and housekeeper, is frightened and keeps trying various rituals, Catholic and otherwise, to ward off the evil spirits in the house.

During the day, Dan is frustrated with the modest progress of his test subjects at a primate intelligence research facility; ironically, he is not bright enough to realize that one of the chimpanzees, Caesar, is now actually much smarter than he is. One night, the pool drain invites others to a party. In the morning, Maria sees the mess in the pool and does more rituals, causing Dan to fire her. Because Dan doesn't understand her Spanish, their fighting leads to the lab releasing all of the apes.

Jody and Dan, with the help of Jody's close friend Kendra Brooks who she had met at ballet, must quickly find a way to lift the curse and save their family. Along the way, they seek help from psychic Blaine Fulda, a complete fraud, and dream extractor Dom Kolb, who helps them understand that the solution to their problems lies in the mysterious Book of the Evil.

However, Jody and Kendra are oblivious to the book's power, wreaking havoc on the four friends. They take turns reading the book's two passages: one that unleashes demons, "gort klaatu barada nikto", and the other that frees them from possession. When "Mama" takes the children to a cliff to sacrifice them, Jody fails to lift the curse with the book, but manages to knock the evil spirit into Ja'Marcus and D'Andre's pool, where a shark devours her.

Realizing the love for her adopted children is all she needs, Jody gives the Swan Queen part to Kendra, who performs the dance in the style of a stripper. The audience applauds enthusiastically, including Jody, Dan, the children, Kendra's family, and Madea. The narrator is revealed to be Caesar, who tells the audience that humans should enjoy the time they have on Earth, saying that apes will one day take over the world.

In a post-credits scene, Sheen wakes up, realizing that the whole movie was a dream. After Kolb tells Sheen he will be sleeping with Lohan, a car crashes into the room, killing him. The driver is Lohan as she gets out, throws Kolb the car keys and says, "You were driving".

IGN gave the film a 1.0 out of 10.{{cite web |author=Max Nicholson 12 Apr 2013 |url=https://ign.com/articles/2013/04/12/scary-movie-5-review |title=Scary Movie 5 Review |publisher=NewsCorp |work=IGN |date=March 26, 2013 |access-date=April 13, 2013 |archive-date=April 14, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130414065146/http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/04/12/scary-movie-5-review |url-status=live }} Stephanie Merry of The Washington Post gave the film zero stars saying, "The movie is so appalling that even a film fan who guffawed her way through The Aristocrats would feel nothing but a deep emptiness as the end credits begin to roll, wondering if one solid joke was too much to ask from a movie that bills itself as comedy."{{cite news |author=Stephanie Merry |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/goingoutguide/scary-movie-5-movie-review/2013/04/12/6bd5a5d2-a396-11e2-9c03-6952ff305f35_story.html |title='Scary Movie 5' movie review |newspaper=The Washington Post |date=November 15, 2011 |access-date=April 13, 2013 |archive-date=April 13, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130413170718/http://www.washingtonpost.com/goingoutguide/scary-movie-5-movie-review/2013/04/12/6bd5a5d2-a396-11e2-9c03-6952ff305f35_story.html |url-status=live }}

Joe Neumaier of The New York Daily News gave the film one star saying, "Like so much of this whole series – hatched in 2000 by the Wayans brothers and intermittently directed by Airplane! veteran David Zucker, though newcomer Malcolm D. Lee takes over here – the mere mention of a familiar pop culture figure or title is supposed to be hilarious. It often isn't, and in fact the constant name-dropping and gross-out humor gets tiresome (in a movie that's at least 10 minutes too long). Luckily, folks like Snoop and good sports like Sheen and, yes, Lohan, break up the monotony. Until, like an undead beastie, the boredom and dumb jokes come roaring back."{{cite news |url=http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv-movies/scary-movie-v-review-horror-article-1.1315247 |title='Scary Movie V' Review: Chiller parody goes downhill after opening featuring Charlie Sheen & Lindsay Lohan |publisher=NY Daily News |date=April 12, 2013 |access-date=April 13, 2013 |location=New York |archive-date=September 27, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130927085247/http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv-movies/scary-movie-v-review-horror-article-1.1315247 |url-status=live }}

Rafer Guzman of Newsday felt that "Even the talented people – comedian Katt Williams as a fake psychic, high-energy actor Jerry O'Connell in a send-up of the 'Fifty Shades of Grey' books – get chewed up and spit out by this relentless anti-laugh machine. Scary Movie 5 doesn't even have the imagination for a worthwhile gross-out joke. When the best you can offer is a poopy toothbrush, it's time to pack it in."{{cite web |url=http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/movies/scary-movie-5-review-lindsay-lohan-but-no-laughs-1.5063138 |title='Scary Movie 5' review: Lindsay Lohan but no laughs |publisher=Newsday.com |access-date=April 13, 2013 |archive-date=April 16, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130416054547/http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/movies/scary-movie-5-review-lindsay-lohan-but-no-laughs-1.5063138 |url-status=live }} Darren Franich of Entertainment Weekly said "Hitting theaters seven years after the last Scary Movie, the new film doesn't even feature the ameliorating presence of Anna Faris, who gave the earlier films a certain spoofy grace. In her place is High School Musical refugee Ashley Tisdale, her face frozen in an eye roll of mild irritation. Who can blame her? The film hopscotches between too-late riffs on Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Inception, Insidious, and Black Swan. At a running time of 86 minutes, it's about as long as an episode of Saturday Night Live, except with less laughs and worse storytelling."{{cite magazine |author=Darren Franich |url=https://ew.com/article/2013/04/29/scary-movie-v-movie-review/ |title=Scary Movie V Movie Review Review |magazine=Entertainment Weekly |date=2013-04-12|access-date=April 16, 2013}} Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter said "The filmmakers' desperation is evident from the fact that a good chunk of the running time is devoted to spoofing the recent Jessica Chastain starrer Mama. While that film was indeed a sleeper hit, it hardly seems memorable enough to warrant such sustained treatment, and indeed the comic payoffs are nil."{{cite news |url=https://hollywoodreporter.com/movie/scary-movie-5/review/438623 |title=Scary Movie 5 Review |work=The Hollywood Reporter |date=November 17, 2011 |access-date=April 16, 2013 |first=Frank |last=Scheck |archive-date=April 16, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130416024448/http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movie/scary-movie-5/review/438623 |url-status=live }}

The film earned three nominations at the 34th Golden Raspberry Awards including Worst Supporting Actress for Lindsay Lohan, Worst Screen Combo for Lohan and Charlie Sheen and Worst Prequel, Remake, Ripoff or Sequel.{{cite web|url=http://www.blastr.com/2014-1-15/which-2013-genre-films-got-honor-golden-razzie-nomination|title=Which 2013 genre films got the 'honor' of a Golden Razzie nomination?|first=Matthew|last=Jackson|access-date=January 24, 2014|archive-date=January 20, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140120042639/http://www.blastr.com/2014-1-15/which-2013-genre-films-got-honor-golden-razzie-nomination|url-status=live}}

Director Malcolm D. Lee was very critical of the movie: "It was just a bad movie. Believe me. Don't bother going to see that movie. Or renting it, or anything. It's not worth your time".{{cite web |date=2 August 2018 |author=Allison P. Davis |title=Malcolm D.
