A Haunted House (2013) is a raucous parody of found-footage horror films like Paranormal Activity, blending comedy and supernatural hijinks into an 86-minute laugh fest. The film follows Malcolm (Marlon Wayans) and Kisha (Essence Atkins) as they move into their ideal suburban home, only to discover it comes with an unwelcome demonic roommate. When Kisha becomes possessed, Malcolm's desperate attempts to save her involve a motley crew of would-be exorcists including a dubious priest, an eccentric psychic, and a hilariously incompetent team of ghostbusters.

Marlon Wayans delivers the physical comedy and improvisational energy that fans expect, playing perfectly off Essence Atkins' increasingly unhinged performance as the possessed Kisha. The film cleverly mocks horror movie tropes while delivering consistent gags and slapstick humor. Director Michael Tiddes keeps the pace brisk, ensuring the parody never overstays its welcome despite its simple premise.

While the IMDb rating of 5.1 reflects its niche appeal, A Haunted House succeeds as an undemanding comedy that doesn't take itself seriously. Viewers should watch it for the clever horror references, Wayans' committed performance, and the sheer absurdity of the situations. It's perfect for when you want horror-themed laughs without actual scares, offering a lighthearted alternative to the films it parodies. The movie's unpretentious approach to comedy makes it an enjoyable watch for fans of spoof films and supernatural humor alike.
