    I am a huge fan of parody movies. Spaceballs, Scary Movie, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, etc. The humor is very silly with the right amount of witty and biting. However, it's really really easy to forget that satire is not an easy form of humor to pull off and you're reminded of this whenever you watch the appropriately named Disaster Movie.

    Now, I can watch a bad movie if it's laughably cheesy. However, Disaster Movie sours any chance it has to actually be funny by their lazy writing full of cheap jokes and lame references. There is no satire to be seen here. Just another barebones "parody" movie made by Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg who are responsible for such cinematic blights as Date Movie, Epic Movie, Meet The Spartans, and Vampires Suck.

    It took me three tries to finally get through Disaster Movie in one sitting.

      I honestly can't differentiate between Date Movie, Epic Movie, and Disaster Movie they all sound like the exact same thing to me and I think I've watched all 3 of those as well

        That's because they all pretty much are the same movie rehashed over and over again with worse jokes each time. I didn't even bother watching Vampires Suck but there are people who say it's much worse than Disaster Movie ever was.
