Humorous Horror

[chainleen]

I wasn't quite sure where to post this, as I know there are funny horror movies before 1970...

What are your favorite funny horror movies? Or something you rented and weren't sure about but then loved it because it was so funny?

Two of my faves are Meet the Feebles and Undead (2005). I was pleasantly surprised by Undead, It ended up in my netflix queue because I thought it was something else. I expected to fall asleep during it but it was funny enough to make it ok. I also got a kick out of the Killer Condom.

A nice little surprise for me was Dead and Breakfast. I didn't really expect much but got a great comedy zombie romp that was a ton of fun. I hated Undead though...

[The_Return]

It's an obvious choice, but I have to mention Evil Dead 2:D

Dead and Breakfast was very good as well, nice choice.

Evil Dead 2 was funny, I didn't think about that one.

Obviously Army of Darkness and Bubba Ho-Tep as well.
Still waiting to see slither.
Let's see, a short list of some of my favorites (some may be pushing it as horror comedy but oh well this is my list):

Beetlejuice
Frighteners
Ghostbusters (Ok so it's WAY more comedy than horror heh.)
Rocky Horror Picture Show
Braindead/Dead Alive
Bad Taste
Return of the Living Dead
Lost Boys
Versus
Re-Animator
Idle Hands
From Dusk Til' Dawn
Basketcase, Brain Damage, and Frankenhooker
American Psycho (I laughed a lot during this one.)
An American Werewolf in London
Attack of the Killer Tomatos
Shaun of the Dead
C.H.U.D.
Gremlins
Killer Klowns from Outer Space



I'm sure there are plenty more too, I feel like I'm forgetting a LOT.

haha, Attack of the Killer Shrews is a good one, lets find medium sized dogs and dress them up :)

another one that always makes me laugh is People Under the Stairs, mom used to tell my sister and I she'd keep us in the walls if we didn't behave




gotta love slow work days......

Necro Files 1 and 2 - Those 2 stupid cops crack me up. Especially the fatter one - He is so annoying he's funny.

Haha, ah yes. I love that Jim Carry rip-off voice the dad does:

"GOT YAAAAAAAA!"

Haha and when that little boy jumps 10 feet in the air and grabs the doorframe as the dog conveniently rushes past.

If that was real, the dog would have simply jumped up and torn that little fucker's nuts off. :)
