The 40 Funniest Scary Movies Ever Made (Esquire - Jul2024 Update)

"It pains me to say this as a former horror-movie fanatic, but I can't stomach scary movies anymore. There's too much gore! It's nauseating. I need a little humor to mitigate all that death and torment. If you're also struggling to cope with today's scary movies, allow me to reintroduce you to the humble horror comedy. It might sound contradictory—what's funny about death?—but horror comedies hit a cinematic sweet spot. Wouldn't The Exorcist have been a bit easier to watch if it had a sense of humor? Unfortunately, it's too late to change the past, but there are plenty of horror comedies to watch instead. Below, we've rounded up forty options to choose from. We can't promise a scream-free experience, but at least you'll laugh, too." - esquire.com
