Unbelievable -- so far I've seen no mention of the funniest comedy ever made, Young Frankenstein! Arguably the best scene -- especially the last 10 seconds!

Animal House is Number 1 of all time.

Here's one nobody has seen.

Hollywood Knights. It lead the way for movies like Porky's. It's sorta like Porky's meets American Graffiti.

Red Dawn .....actually Red dawn is not a comedy, but the movie is so bad it is hilarious.The highschool football team fights off an army of Soviet/Cuban invaders.Most of the adults especially those who are members of the NRA are put in internment camps.

I guess we can all sleep much better knowing if our country is ever invaded the highschool football team will be there to protect us lol.
