Gross-Out Comedies!

[iluvdvds@Cult Labs]

Hi all,


Gross-out comedies. Are you a fan? With their barrage of poop, vomit, gore and WTF-OMG-inducing moments, they can be a lot of (messy) fun.

Do you have any favourites? Perhaps American Pie? Meet The Feebles? The South Park movie, Borat, Jackass, Kevin And Perry, Dumb and Dumber to the newest Master of gross-out laughs, Movie 43, what do you think of these?

Bob Clark's classic teen comedy Porky's. One of the funniest parts below. Can't even remember how mNy times I've seen the film, and this still makes me laugh.

Don't like any of the American Pie movies or any of their derivatives...mindless shite which brings out the worst of my prejudices about aspects of American culture. However, a film I enjoy immensely which I imagine is frequently (and wrongly) put in the same category is Freddy Got Fingered

Just shows how different people's tastes can be. I love the American Pie films, even the "American Pie Presents" ones, and can't stand Freddy Got Fingered. I despise Tom Green. The man is less than funny. I'd laugh more at an old granny being run down in the street ( I don't find that funny at all, so it should give a good idea of how funny I think he is).

Are you serious?

Freddy Got Fingered is bleedin' awful. Tries too hard to be gross and completely forgets to be funny.

I like all the American Pie films, a series of films that have created some icons of High School comedies.

Oh, and Drew Barrymore needs a good slap for putting him in Charlie's Angels.

Anyway, back on topic for me. Here's a nice little video celebrating Gross-out comedies.

Ha ha I expected I'd be a lone voice on this one I think Freddy Got Fingered succeeds in being genuinely transgressive and Rip Torn is hilarious in every frame. To each their own.

King Frat, Revenge of the Nerds, The Party Animal, The First Turn-On and The Lemon Popsicle series for starters.
