I begin this discussion motivated from a movie I watched last night. It's called "Burke and Hare" and it's a black comedy starring simon pegg and a bunch of other great actors! Since I like the genre pretty much I enjoyed the film and I wanted to ask you what other films of the same genre have you enjoyed and would recommend me to watch. I am thinking of watching "I sell the dead". Another movie I love is peter jackson's "Braindead".. old school splatter with a nice sense of humour. I'm waiting for your recommendations :)

What is black comedy? At first I thought it was something racist but after reading the details, I am now lost. Hehe!

Haha, no, it's nothing racist! A black comedy is a comedy that makes use of black humour. This means It likes to make jokes about morbid things, like people dying and stuff. Usually they are thriller-comedies, or horror-comedies. Some people don't like it that much and they find their jokes somewhat disturbing or over-the-top. However, I enjoy them a lot.
