More movies like Pumpkin?


I love watching this movie just because of how "so bad it's good" it is. Does anyone have any other films to recommend that are like this?

reply

Maybe not exactly like Pumpkin, but they have the same dark humor..Jaw Breakers, Heathers, Election. If I think of some more I will come back.

Napoleon Dynamite

I find Edward Scissorhands to be very similar to this. Obviously a different story and not near as much satire, but I think they have a very sumilar "feeling" to the story and roles portrayed.

I think of this film as dark humor/black comedy and satire. Films like Saved, Butter, Drop Dead Gorgeous, Sugar & Spice have a similar feel to me.

Oh and Romy and Michele's High School Reunion. Not really as dark of humor, but definitely a satire.

Funny dialogue, funny characters and horror scenes played theatrically by talented melodramatic actors. Must see.

Pretty Persuasion (2005) is hilarious.
