I don’t know that it’s all that obscure, but with Halloween coming up you should see Tucker and Dale vs Evil if you haven’t already. It’s a role reversal of the teens in the woods trope. Two redneck buddies (Tyler Labine and Alan Tudyk) are renovating a hunting cabin when they save a young woman who knocks herself unconscious in the lake. Her friends think the rednecks are creepy killers and proceed to attack the two in an attempt to save their friend. The teens end up accidentally killings themselves one by one all over the rednecks’ property scaring the hell out of everyone involved, and that’s just the beginning.

Dirt Rotten Scoundrels - Michael Cain and Steve Martin play two con men in the French Riviera trying to out-do one another.
Is that an uncommon one?

Yo. That is a very specific movie, and I barely think it qualifies as a comedy. You should consider deleting your comment because it could be considered false information or a hate crime.
It's listed under "comedy" & "crime" on imdb.
Oscar is one of the funniest movies ever made.
You are on drugs.
No, I've just seen the movie probably a dozen times since it came out, it's a joy each and every time.
Just because you enjoy it and find humor within it, doesn't me it's a comedy or a well regarded comedy. I'm sure there are twisted individuals who think Schindler's List is a laugh riot, but I would never associate with such a person.
It's actually VERY well regarded. You just have never watched it.
Oh, I've seen it.
Super Troopers
Most quotable movie of all time.
Vibes. Two psychics (Cyndi Lauper and Jeff Goldblum) are hired by a suspicious guy (Peter Falk) to find his son who went missing trying to find a fabulous treasure hidden in a lost Incan city located somewhere in the Ecuadorian mountains.
The Pest
Baby's Day Out
It's kinda like Home Alone where the bad guys are having a really hard time being bad guys.
where the bad guys are having a really hard time being bad guys.
Doesn't that apply to Home Alone too? Now I want to see a remake of Home Alone where they're competent criminals.
Yeah, that's why I compared it to Home Alone. The big difference is the bad guys and the baby are out in the city instead of inside a home.
If Home Alone had competent criminals, I feel it wouldn't be a comedy lol
Renaissance Man with Danny DeVito and Bushwhacked with Daniel Stern.

Low budget, bad title, but absolutely hilarious movie.
Escanaba in da Moonlight
Crazy People (1990)
A feel like I can't describe it. It blows taboo and political correctness up to expose the BS in the advertising industry. It's fun and cute and I swear nobody has seen it.
