Is this movie funny to anyone else?

Wow I can't believe how many people agree this movie was "funny".

Guess you guys all had nice mothers.

yes i like paul's expressions as well. especially when he tells her "who doesnt let off a little steam every once in a while" and when she says "hi punkin!" and he flips her off that needs to be a gif. also paul's subtle shade at her meatloaf was pretty tongue in cheek. annie saying she adds spam to it and then he says "you cant get this in NY" some how i dont think he meant that in a nice way

Yes. While it used to be an intense movie to watch (some scenes still are), now it is funny.

Obviously Paul's situation is nothing to laugh at, but, Annie's outrageous outbursts, Paul's "what the *beep* is this sh-t?" looks throughout the entire movie, Paul beating the deranged Annie... it all just makes me feel as if I'm watching a dark comedy.


Hey there, Johnny Boy, I hope you fry!

I've found that's how Stephen King writes. Sometimes funny, other times just very, very clever. What you read or watch can be creepy as hell and he yanks out something really funny.

There are definitely some funny moments, like her shouting at the guy who pulls out in his car.

Well, it had funny aspects and "bits" embedded within all the suspense and horror. One line got a laugh from me - but not from anyone else in the theater - when Paul tries to express the...utter...strangeness... of his new living conditions, in words to the effect: "Well, ya know, Annie, some people would look on this as kind of an oddball situation". "Oddball situation??!!" ... God, what a master of understatement!

Well it's not really a "funny" movie, so to speak, but there are moments of hilarity--Caan's facial expressions in reaction to Annie at various times are super funny. Even Annie is funny at times. So, I guess, yes, some parts are funny to me. :)


"Why couldn't the monkey arrange this from INSIDE the garbage can?"

what i love about this is the family guy's spoof of it, i mean this is a great suspenseful movie, and i saw it way before the spoof, but it's so terrifying and uncomfortable (in the right way, not blood and gore) that it's one of those movies that are hard to watch more than once, and even as a grown fella i realise i have to look away at that moment when she is about to cripple him to keep him a prisoner in the house, and of course what happened to the sheriff, the words and battle between the two main roles at the end is outrageous. of the three movies spoofed in the family guy episode, this was the funniest bit with stewie as the "number one fan"... "well i stood up in the theatre and i said no...", but little richard in the "stand by me" segment can't be beat! by the way, i realise that is not the real little richard.

camouflaged as block of stone,
peace and quiet there on my own,
at the still night,
you came to climb like a gymnast,
so limber with feverish heat couldnt hide,
i began to desperately weaken and feel funny,
by moonlight you had turned me into silly putty.
