I like the doomed central romance in Deadly Friend - if this was a shock the first time round, repeated viewings make you approach the film with more caution... it's maybe not fun in the conventional sense, but there are a lot of good bits to keep you happy while the tragedy unfolds (the ghastly trigger-happy old woman, Sam's nasty father, the corpse-stealing, the bickering between the two heroes, and of course "BB").
One gets similar pleasure from the offbeat romance in the excellent Return of the Living Dead 3.
