A Haunted House 2 (2014)

While the found footage gags are starting to get a little repetitive, this one incorporates parodies from other popular horror films released at the time, such as Annabelle, Sinister, Insidious and The Conjuring. It's very much a product of its time, but it's a time when people didn't take themselves so fucking seriously. This one dials up the stupid, but that doesn't make it any less funny. Completely irreverent and offensive to the max.

Also, probably the first time I realized Jaime Pressly and Missi Pyle weren't the same person.

A Haunted House (2013)

What better way to clear the house of spirits after you've just watched 8 Paranormal Activity movies in a row? The found footage genre and all of its tropes were ripe for parody and there was no better person to take it on than Marlon Wayans, one-half of those responsible for Scary Movie 1 and 2. This movie is uproariously funny, but doubly so if you're familiar with the material being lampooned (sometimes shot for shot). What a refreshing way to look through the lens of that series and exploit it for all its dirty, highly perverted potential. I laughed my ass off. Nothing is sacred here. They couldn't make another movie like this today.
