Sex Scene In Scary Movie 2 Exclusive

In an exclusive interview from our archives, Marlon Wayans recalls filming the infamous bedroom sequence. "We knew we had to top the first movie. In Scary Movie 1, we had the gross-out masturbation gag. For the sequel, [co-writer/director] Keenen [Ivory Wayans] said, 'Let’s take the most romantic ghost scene ever and cover it in maple syrup.' And we all just died laughing."

The production crew faced unique challenges. The sex scene in Scary Movie 2 required a custom-made "phantom rig"—a set of mechanical arms hidden beneath a specially designed mattress that could flail, grope, and "perform" while Anna Faris remained motionless, possessed.

"The arms had about 30 different settings," says special effects coordinator Dave Miller (name changed for privacy). "There was the 'tickle setting,' the 'slap setting,' and the one we called the 'pancake breakfast'—which was just full-on, aggressive syrup distribution. We went through 45 gallons of fake maple syrup over two nights of shooting. The hotel suite we built on the soundstage was a biohazard by the end."

Tori Spelling, who plays the hilariously awkward ghost target, famously improvised her line after the syrupy climax: "Was it good for you, too?" According to on-set sources, director Keenen Ivory Wayans laughed so hard he fell off his monitor chair, and that take made the final cut. sex scene in scary movie 2 exclusive

Our exclusive research unearthed MPAA ratings memos from June 2001. The ratings board initially slapped Scary Movie 2 with an NC-17 rating solely because of the bedroom sequence. The objection? A two-frame subliminal shot of a ghost’s pelvis. Yes, you read that correctly.

To secure an R-rating, director Keenen Ivory Wayans had to trim seven seconds from the sex scene. Those seven seconds—which included an extended shot of "ectoplasm" (actually a mixture of yogurt and gelatin) spraying across the room—have never been released on any home video version. Fans have hunted for this "Unrated Exclusive Cut" for years. According to our source, a workprint copy exists in a private collector’s possession. The asking price? $50,000.

Director: David Zucker The Target: The Grudge, Saw, War of the Worlds, Brokeback Mountain By now, the formula was tired but reliable. The film features a giant tripod alien (Tom Cruise’s character from War of the Worlds now living in a closet), a hilariously inept "Saw" parody, and Dr. Phil as himself. While it lacks the freshness of the original, it has a cult following for its rapid pacing and the chemistry between Anna Faris, Regina Hall, and Craig Bierko.

The Setup: A direct shot-for-shot parody of Scream’s iconic opening. Drew Decker (Carmen Electra) is alone making popcorn when a "Ghostface" killer calls. The Twist: The killer asks, "What’s your favorite scary movie?" Drew answers, "Shakespeare in Love." The killer pauses, annoyed: "Shakespeare in Love? That’s not a scary movie." Drew retorts, "It is when you’re forced to see it with your boyfriend." The killer hangs up, confused. When he calls back, he’s just trying to ask her out. The scene ends with her being killed not by a knife, but by a flailing, windmill-style struggle with a garage door. It perfectly established the tone: respect the genre, then destroy it.

For the uninitiated, the scene in question involves the film’s two leads: Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris) and Buddy (Christopher Masterson). Following the tropes of haunted house horror films like The Haunting and Poltergeist, the characters attempt to consummate their relationship in a dusty, candle-lit bedroom of the ominous Hell House. However, this being a Scary Movie sequel, nothing goes smoothly.

The scene spirals into absolute chaos. A ghostly presence intervenes, leading to a series of slapstick gags involving flying furniture, ectoplasmic slime, and the now-iconic moment where Buddy’s back is brutally scratched—not by Cindy, but by a demonic entity. The scene culminates in a punchline that subverts every romantic trope from Ghost (1990). It’s gross, it’s loud, and it is quintessential early-2000s crude comedy. "There was the 'tickle setting,' the 'slap setting,'

But why does this specific sequence deserve an "exclusive" behind-the-scenes look? Because what you saw in theaters is not the full story.
