I like them.

The Lobster was excellent for strange funny.

Best in Show for dry humor.

American Psycho for dark humor. I was appalled the first time watching and have laughed my ass off from times 2-11.

Your suggestions.

I was going to form a list... But something tells me we have seen a lot of the same films...

Fight Club is probably my favorite movie and perhaps one of the best films ever put together...

I own around 1000 dvds...

I agree about fight club!

but this isn't a "favorite movie" or "best movie" thread. And fight club doesn't fit into any of the aforementioned genres:

strange/quirky funny
dry humor
dark/black humor

shit man devils rejects, house of a thousand corpse...

there's s a subtle difference between black comedy horror and straight up horror that I think you aren't tracking with.

Do you consider these movies to be comedy?

i have no interest is straight up horror movies. Films like Army of Darkness are more my speed. Also Get Out. That type of dark comedy.

Bruce Campbell is the man.

I love "The Machinist"... Pretty dark... (To me at least).

One of the more underrated movies I like is "Cabin Fever". Eli Roth in general makes some pretty good dark comedies.

Evil Dead: Army of Darkness

I hear Swiss Army Man could fit the bill.

Not sure if it's is more dry or more dark , but thought What We Do in the Shadows was great.

On why vampires prefer virgin blood....

The Grand Budapest Hotel is a uniquely odd, but humorous movie.

Lost Highway, and Blue Velvet are two gems. Weird, dark humor, surreal and borderline uncomfortable, but you just can't turn it off. Two of my favorites, for sure.
