Not even the great David Zucker — armed here with some particularly inventive butt jokes — can redeem this strung-together series of movie spoofs (Saw, The Village). EXTRAS The deleted scenes in Scary Movie 4 barely register, and unless you really, really want to know how the YoungBloodz felt about their one-second cameo, fast-forward through the frustratingly repetitive featurettes. Leslie Nielsen plodding around nearly naked? He shows more skin — much more — in the actual movie. Those are the scariest moments on the whole disc.
