NO MERCY. NO SHAME. NO SEQUEL.

High school teens accidentally hit a stranger with their car; some time later, a murderer strikes at their school.

This horror spoof looked to Airplane! (1980) for ideas, but came up empty. The comedy is so lowbrow it’s hard to fathom anyone older than high-school teens writing the jokes. Worth a smile or two at times, some of the cast members are amusing, but the lion’s share of it is just stupid.

Virtually a remake of Scream (1996), which comes across as particularly lazy.
