Played by Regina Hall, Brenda is the parody character of Maureen Evans from Scream 2 and Karla Wilson from I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. Also named after Brenda Bates from the movie Urban Legend. She is shown to be a real "tough girl", with a bit of ghetto-ness, as depicted in her speech and actions. She is butchered by angry cinema patrons; her death scene parodies the death of Maureen in the cinema scene of Scream 2. Brenda's name is taken from the character Brenda from Friday the 13th, and from Randy Meeks, a character from Scream and Scream 2. Brenda was temporarily resurrected for Scary Movie 2 and Scary Movie 3, only to be killed off again in the latter (this time by the girl from The Ring). This was after faking several almost-deaths, leading her to be ignored while she was being killed for real. She was resurrected once again in Scary Movie 4 and lived through the entire movie. To date, she is one of only two characters to appear in all of the Scary Movie films.
