HORROR MOVIE NIGHT- Creepy comedy collection
Campy horror is here to stay- a lot of modern horror movie scripts seem to jump at every opportunity to mix the comedy with the creepy. This is a mix of funny scary movies and scary movies that are so bad its funny.
I don't watch a lot of campy horror- it just isn't my preference- so my knowledge of this genre is limited and suggestions are always more than welcome!

- DirectorSteven SpielbergStarsRoy ScheiderRobert ShawRichard DreyfussWhen a massive killer shark unleashes chaos on a beach community off Long Island, it's up to a local sheriff, a marine biologist, and an old seafarer to hunt the beast down.With this one entry I include the whole series. It started its own horror genre. Thanks to 'Jaws' we now have 'Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus!'
- DirectorGeorge A. RomeroStarsDavid EmgeKen ForeeScott H. ReinigerDuring an escalating zombie epidemic, two Philadelphia SWAT team members, a traffic reporter and his TV executive girlfriend seek refuge in a secluded shopping mall.Mostly scary with political undertones, this film had its funny moments. I watch it now and I think 'wow, zombies move waaaay faster now than they did in the '70s!'
- DirectorJohn LandisStarsDavid NaughtonJenny AgutterJoe BelcherAmerican college students David Kessler and Jack Goodman on a walking tour of Britain are attacked by a werewolf that none of the locals will admit exists. Jack dies. David recovers in a hospital, where he has nightmares.Comedy and horrible effects! Say no more.
- DirectorTommy Lee WallaceStarsTom AtkinsStacey NelkinDan O'HerlihyKids all over America want Silver Shamrock masks for Halloween. Doctor Daniel Challis seeks to uncover a plot by Silver Shamrock owner Conal Cochran.If you haven't seen this movie you should. Not intended to fit in to the story line of the 'Halloween' slasher series, this movie had nothing what so ever to do with Michael Meyers. I bought it on VHS at a pawn shop years ago and was disapointed and suprised all at the same time. It is truley hilarious.
- DirectorJohn CarpenterStarsKurt RussellWilford BrimleyKeith DavidA research team in Antarctica is hunted by a shape-shifting alien that assumes the appearance of its victims.Anyone who has seen this movie knows it has a huge comedy aspect to it.
- DirectorWes CravenStarsHeather LangenkampJohnny DeppRobert EnglundTeenager Nancy Thompson must uncover the dark truth concealed by her parents after she and her friends become targets of the spirit of a serial killer with a bladed glove in their dreams, in which if they die, it kills them in real life.In my opinion this movie series is genuinely scary- but over time it got funnier and funnier.
- DirectorJoe DanteStarsZach GalliganPhoebe CatesHoyt AxtonAfter receiving an exotic small animal as a Christmas gift, a young man inadvertently breaks three important rules concerning his new pet, which unleashes a horde of malevolently mischievous creatures on a small town.Even as a child I knew that this movie was intended to be funny.
- DirectorTom HollandStarsCatherine HicksChris SarandonAlex VincentA dying serial killer transfers his consciousness into a popular kids doll using voodoo. A struggling single mother gifts her six-year-old son the much sought-after doll for his birthday, and the doll slowly begins to show its true colors.The whole series! I am lucky to have watched this movie for the first time at a very young age. I didn't realize it was funny- well the first was meant to be scary- until seeing it when I was much older.
- DirectorBernard RoseStarsVirginia MadsenXander BerkeleyTony ToddThe Candyman, a murderous soul with a hook for a hand, is accidentally summoned to reality by a skeptic grad student researching the monster's myth.The whole concept of this movie is hilarious- its like bloody mary from the projects. As a child I always pictured bloody mary's behind the mirror crib to be very high class, victorian even. Weird, I know- I had a big imagination. But Candyman lives in a grafittied abandoned bulding. Rambling on, good movie, good for a laugh.
- DirectorSam RaimiStarsBruce CampbellEmbeth DavidtzMarcus GilbertWhen Ash Williams is accidentally transported to 1300 A.D., he must retrieve the Necronomicon and battle an army of the dead in order to return home.This series takes the cake!
- DirectorMark JonesStarsWarwick DavisJennifer AnistonKen OlandtAn evil, sadistic Leprechaun goes on a killing rampage in search of his beloved pot of gold.Again this series terrified me as a child. Now- hilarious! I can't believe this scared me!
- DirectorWes CravenStarsNeve CampbellCourteney CoxDavid ArquetteA masked killer targets a past victim's daughter.All my friends thought this was the scariest movie ever- but it just made me laugh.
- DirectorRodman FlenderStarsDevon SawaSeth GreenElden HensonA teenage slacker's right hand becomes possessed with murderous intent.Great movie! Hilarious!
- DirectorRob SperaStarsWarwick DavisIce-TAnthony MontgomeryWhen three rappers want to get even with a pimp, they accidentally unleash a leprechaun who goes on a killing rampage in tha 'hood.This Leprechaun movie was especially stupid and funny.
- DirectorKeenen Ivory WayansStarsAnna FarisJon AbrahamsMarlon WayansA year after disposing of the body of a man they accidentally killed, a group of dumb teenagers are stalked by a bumbling serial killer.The whole series.
- DirectorJeff LiebermanStarsAlexander BrickelKatheryn WinnickStephen GrahamA naive young boy unknowingly becomes the pawn of a serial killer.This movie is a hidden gem. It is so funny, the kid is so annoying but for a B horror it is worth a watch. Don't expect an artistic display of death and destruction- the gore in this film is nothing to write home about.
- DirectorEdgar WrightStarsSimon PeggNick FrostKate AshfieldThe uneventful, aimless lives of a London electronics salesman and his layabout roommate are disrupted by the zombie apocalypse.Kudos for being funny on purpose!
- DirectorJay ChandrasekharStarsJay ChandrasekharBill PaxtonKevin HeffernanWhen a serial killer interrupts the fun at the swanky Coconut Pete's Coconut Beach Resort--a hedonistic island paradise for swingers--it's up to the club's staff to stop the violence...or at least hide it.This became an instant classic for me.
- DirectorLarry BlamireStarsDaniel RoebuckSusan McConnellFay MastersonA small town infestation of crawling alien foreheads that begin attaching to people and taking them over collides with a scientist's experiments to extract foreheadazine and things go horribly horribly wrong.
- DirectorJason MurphyStarsLyanna TumanengJessica BartonHollie WinnardA drug experiment gone wrong produces a league of blood-thirsty zombies. It is up to a small band of exotic dancers trapped in a gentleman's club to fight back. Together they must rely on their wits and skills to survive the night, and pray that they don't become victims of the flesh-eating zombies!So terrible, its just another B tits and ass horror movie.

- DirectorJack PerezStarsLorenzo LamasDebbie GibsonVic ChaoThe California coast is terrorized by two enormous prehistoric sea creatures as they battle each other for supremacy of the sea.Just terrible!
- DirectorRichard KellyStarsCameron DiazJames MarsdenFrank LangellaWith the press of a button, a wooden box bestows riches and death.Horrible to the point of hilarity! I put it on the list only to discourage people from watching it. Its SO bad that its, well....BAD!
