although Peter Boyle thinking he's Jesus is the best part.

Spent many nights at the drive in watching The Groove Tube and Kentucky Fried Movie, always a double feature. Roll all the windows up, fire up an oversized joint and laugh our asses off all night long.

"Young lady, are you aware of the penal codes in this state?"

'Big Jim Slade"

A Fistfull of Yin ROFL

Feel Around ROFL

And all of the coming attraction spoofs.

Thanks as these are (4) movies I've never seen and Noises Off and Fandango I never even heard of before this thread. :clap:

Another great dark comedy that is hard to find is Divorcing Jack. If you can find it, it's well worth.

Death Becomes Her with Bruce Willis, Goldie Hawn and Meryl Streep was underrated IMHO.

Caddyshack

Animal House

Stripes (the first half before they get to Germany)

Ferris Bueller's Day Off

The Blues Brothers

Back to theFuture

Spaceballs

And a bunch of others I can't remember right now

These are all great but I would say EVERYONE has seen nearly all of these. I have and they are all worth it.

Love that movie, but it's a toss-up whether I love it more for the movie itself or how much Garry invested in it with his comedic sensibility and how blunt and hilarious he was in reaction to it flopping at the box office.

I always got a kick out fo Crazy People and the ads they came up with. I worked for one of the companies in the 90's that was used for some of the faux ads so I got particularly tickled with those.

I forgot about Fandango. That’s one I used to always watch when it would come on HBO.

Forgot about Noises Off too. Both good.


Death Becomes her is really underrated. Especially Bruce Willis in this movie. Plays the perfect beta.

Another 80s one people may have forgotten:

Lost in America

Tribal Warfare 07-06-2019 02:22 PM

The Princess Bride

Another comedy in the spirit of Ruthless People is The Ref. Kevin Spacey and Judy Davis play a bickering married couple held hostage by Denis Leary. If you like your comedy with a nasty edge to it, this movie is for you.

scho63 07-06-2019 06:53 PM

Another great one I forgot is Dutch starring Ed O'Neill aka Al Bundy and JoBeth Williams

Laughed my balls off on that one!

Dayze 07-06-2019 07:10 PM

Oh shit...Dutch. Yeah, that’s a good one too.
