Top Black/Dark Comedies/Satire
by rivethead808 | created - 26 Jan 2011 | updated - 13 Mar 2012 | PublicSome are as black as oblivion -- maybe 1% comedy -- and others are a little more campy/true comedy, but needless to say, you wont find Tommy Boy on here (thats on my next list: top (straightforward) comedies ;) ). And some will overlap lists (like The Cable Guy and Monkeybone). Someday, as anally retentive as I am, I may break this list up into the three subgenres listed above, but for now theyre all going together.
You may not agree with everything on this list as far as "qualifying" as the list's title, and thats fine, I welcome comments, but please dont be a dick about it
