    The Evil Dead trilogy.

    A younger friend of mine had started playing the Evil Dead game with some of his friends but had never seen the movies. I’d not watched them in years, so I invited him over to marathon them one weekend. We drank, ate pizza and did the whole trilogy, and we had an absolute blast. He loved how different each movie was, especially Heart of Darkness. How each one gets sillier than the last.

    A few months later, Evil Dead Rise came out in the cinema, so we had to go see it. While this was much more a straight up horror movie (with a small amount of the Evil Dead silliness), I still enjoyed it (I find horror movies quite funny, like an emotional rollercoaster), but he was hiding behind his coat the whole time, terrified of what was happening on screen. That made it even funnier for me.

    Kung Pao Enter the Fist. Warning: you must be immature and somewhat comfortable with jokes that might not have aged well. I haven’t watched it since I was a teen, but I remember thinking it was hilarious back then…

    Maybe just stick with Space Balls and The Room.

    Nudist Colony of the Dead is awful and fantastic at the same time. I love getting a friend to go into the movie blind.

    Tap for spoiler

    It’s fucking hilarious watching someone slowly realize that they’re watching a super low budget movie musical that’s a musical about a bunch of religious types getting murdered by ‘nudist’ zombies (that basically have the equivalent of fig leaf clothing).

    The day I got my best bud fucking blazed out of his mind to watch it has to be one of my favorite experiences.

    Tucker and Dale vs evil is a over the top gory comedy slasher and I loved it when I watched it as a teen. It may not have aged well though

    Other fan favorites are zoolander and tropic thunder

    Letterkenny, lot of quotable dialog between the characters, unexpectedly witty considering the backdrop of a small Canadian hick town.
