recommend dark comedies

I love dark comedies but don't know of too many... which is strange for me with any genre of movie...
but yeah fav. comedy ever is Fight Club
and yeah recommend some dark comedies please

 

There a new film called Dark City which is based on the Frank Miller comicstrip. I highly recommend it for its style and I think it more than qualifies for its dark humourous moments. I'm not giving any spoilers though. Go and see it.

 

Beg your pardon, forumites. I meant Sin City.

 

The darkest of dark comedies: Stanley Kubrick's 'Dr. Strangelove'.

"Mandrake. Do you know what flouridation is?"

 

American Beauty, Fargo, Welcome to the Dollhouse, Withnail & I, Pulp Fiction, All About My Mother, Man Bites Dog, to name a handful.
They vary in darkness, but I believe all could fall under the genre "dark comedy."

Igby Goes Down,clerks

 

was gonna suggest that, very dark....but one of the greatest films in history

 

been meaning to see that for like 3 years....

didn't like it....

how could I not have seen that?

 

second favorite comedy

I love that movie so much
it's style was kinda like Once Upon A TIme In Mexico only a million times cooler with the effects and it being basically a moving comic...

ANd as for Dr. strangelove I was going to watch it the other day but forgot it was on
I will be downloading that

thank you, keep em coming

 

Barton Fink! And The Lady Killers... but Barton Fink is a better movie.

 

You'd be surprised.

 

any movie by those brothers (forgot their name) but they did fargo, big lebowski, barton fink.

tarantino and rodriquez have good ones.

 

THE COEN BROTHERS

Fargo is a great dark comedy! Love it love it love it

 

fargo was amazing, one of my favorite parts is when buscemi is yelling at the guy in the booth about paying for parking.

reminds me of the buscemi from resevoir dogs and not believing in tipping.

 

Steve Buscemi is great, I love him

 

Trainspotting

 

love that movie

 

Man Bites Dog!

 

If you don't mind subtitles, see a dark comedy called Delicatessen. It's a great French film. It's set in the future, which as per ususal is bleak, and it shows a community that amongst other activities engage in some peculiar eating habits. On a similar note, although different in style and more subtle in humour is another great movie called The Cook, The Thief , His Wife and Her Lover. This movie will set your eyes ablaze with colour. It was made by a great director, Peter Greenaway and I highly recommend it. Staying continental and on the subject of dark comedy, probably the maestro of celluloid in that field has to be Piedro Almodovar. That's the only thing he makes so any of his movies will fit the bill, Matador, High Heels (if you run a search you'll get the whole archive). He's from sunny Spain and his films are filled with Mediterannean conundrums.

bad karma (dunno if it counts as dark but is messy and damn funny)
