You'd be hard pressed to find a more divisive sub-genre of horror than horror-comedy. Those who hate it, really, really hate it. But for those of us who love horror as much as we love comedy, there is something truly special about a film that manages to combine these two genres into a perfect blend. 

On Die Laughing, hosts Bart Shannon, Lindsey Roberts and a weekly special guest, take a tour through some of the best and worst entries in the horror comedy field!

The Frighteners (1996)

The Frighteners (1996)

Peter Jackson's 1996 horror-comedy is a wild romp, that follows paranormal grifter, Frank Bannister, (Michael J. Fox in his final leading-man film role) as he battles a murderous ghost who is crushing the hearts of the townspeople of Fairwater, California. Add in what might be the most deliciously over-the-top performance in cinema history, delivered by Jeffrey Combs, and you've got a film that will be remembered for far more than just being Peter Jackson's last film before changing Middle-earth forever.Hosts: Bart Shannon, Lindsey RobertsGuest: Brandon SamsMusic provided by MKE.
