I need a laugh!

#1

Post by Leeward »

I thought I'd start a thread on our favourite funny movies and shows. Doesn't have to be comedy, as long as it made you laugh. Whether it's a rom-com, stand-up show, horror movie that's so bad it's hilarious, anything goes.

One minor requirement though: please include a rating out of 10 on how highbrow/lowbrow you found the humour. Note that this is not synonymous with how amusing you found it. For instance, I'd give Anchorman a 2/10, and Monty Python and the Holy Grail a 9/10, even though I enjoyed both around as much. If you think this doesn't apply (e.g. with the bad horror movies) then feel free to omit it.

My number one favourite film of all time for a good laugh is The Green Slime

In 1968 they made the worlds worst sci-fi film... It involves space, a terrible love triangle that will have you spewing your cereal (should you watch it while eating breakfast), green slime which grows into the most terribly made monsters... and a soundtrack reminiscent of a Rammstein Concert...

If you want a good laugh thats not meant to be humourus then do yourself a favour and find this little gem of a Z Grade horror film... its bad, its poorly written... but if ever I have had a laugh... well... then this one is it!

Related to IT crowd. They tried to make a US version of it...



Could only watch the first half of it before giving up. It's basically got the same script, same jokes, even the same Moss... I swear they could've just taken his bits from the original and edit him into the US one xD

where have the days of musical horrors Gone I miss them.

It's lacking in humour but I know at least one musical horror, Repo! The Genetic Opera.

I auditioned for the voice of Audrey II for our high school production.
Didn't get it, they said I was too sinister and not jazzy enough.

Sweeney Todd grossed me out more than it amused me, to be honest.

Sweeny Todd is my 5th favourite musical... I love it. I think it's hilarious and I would totes become a murderous pie making assistant to Johnny Depp any day (the stage musical is cool too :P)
