Marlon Wayans Reveals Surprising Inspiration For Scary Movie's Shorty
Marlon Wayans reveals the surprising inspiration for his Scary Movie character Shorty as a friend of the same name who was initially upset. Wayans developed the 2000 slasher parody with his brothers Shawn, who also starred in the film, and Keenen Ivory, who would direct the film. Scary Movie would lampoon a number of popular horror and slasher films of its era, primarily pulling from Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer while also poking fun at Halloween, The Shining, The Sixth Sense, The Blair Witch Project and The Matrix.
