Parodys dont have to be movies.

They can be songs to.

Meme - Scream vs Scary Movie.

In Class we have being looking at Meme "An Idea or creative item that is passed on virally from person to person, to the point where lots of people know about it and are talking about it" this could be anything. In this case it is the mask from Scream. I think that meme can be used to describe the symbolic mask from scream (shown left) Scream is a horror movie in which a murderer uses the mask to conceal him self, in the film their are enormous amounts of people wearing the mark making it hard to tell who the murderer is. The mask being shown in large quantity's makes the audience uneasy, they recognise the mask and relate it to danger.
This classic mask comes from the painting Scream by Edward Munch (shown right)
which is parodies in lots of things e.g the Simpson's.
Scary movie is a Parody, it uses typical stereotypes and ideology's that audiences are used to seeing in film e.g Blonde ditzy woman and exaggerates them to the extreme.






The two trailers to compare. :D as you can see the second video is a complete parody

An example of post morderness
