Tucker and Dave vs. Evil. Looks like another dumb Netflix original, but it was one of the best horror/comedies I've seen.
Speaking of the genre, big nods to another one - Little Evil.
It Follows - just read the premise of the film and tell me it doesn't sound dumb... Then go watch it
Oh and Colossal!!! Ann Hathaway stars in this bizarre and very deep movie about a giant monster that can be controlled from a playground. Amazing movie. Trust me
It Follows... Amazing
Tucker and Dale vs. Evil! Amazing movie! I put it on one day just so I could check it off my list of new things out and, figured if I love the Evil Dead series (and also, as someone else mentioned in the thread, the Re-Animator) how awful could this be... it wasn't. It was fantastic.
Enjoyed Little Evil too. So, I'm putting Colossal on my list right now!
I think Colossal will surprise you. It's not exactly a horror comedy, but a very serious film wrapped in a ridiculous story
Similar vein: Slaxx. I'm not sure how vampire pants fits into things but boy does it start a conversation about using cheap labor for profit and the cost of life for that profit.
Colossal was weird, but i liked it. I could see where people would be thinking, what is this and why am I watching it, but it felt like real life to me. For a movie about monster avatars unwittingly being controlled from half a world away, anyway.
