Studiobinder's 70 Hilarious Dark Comedy Movies & TV Shows

"Dark comedy, black comedy or black humor is a sub-genre of comedy where commonly objectionable topics and events are used in a satirical manner as a source of humor in a narrative work. Dark comedies intend to make light of events that would otherwise be considered too painful to discuss. The hope is that viewers will gain a cathartic experience, or simply laugh at some absurd situation. The best dark comedy movies and TV shows go for the jugular. It's not enough to just be edgy, or even malicious. You need to tap into deep, disturbing levels of discomfort. We made the ultimate list of dark comedy movies and TV shows. You will probably disagree with this list in one way or another. Maybe you don't think a particular film should be considered a dark comedy. We drew a very simple line..."Do the tragic events on screen make us laugh throughout the film?" Let's jump in." - studiobinder.com
