Might as well add a recommendation of my own:

World's Greatest Dad



One of the best comedic dramas that I've seen in the last few years & the trailer above really doesn't do it any justice...

National Lampoons Animal House!

Classic Comedy!
A horse walks into a bar and the bartender asks, "Why the long face?"


A pony walks into the bar and whispers, "I'll have a beer, please." The barkeeper asks, "Why are you whispering?".
"I'm a little hoarse."

Maybe this recommendation should come with more of a warning! Not for the faint of heart.

If the faint of heart can't understand the clear description "brutal revenge thriller" I think they deserve everything coming to them.
