Humor and Horror blended in one movie.
2 genres,2 choices.

Young Frankenstein and An American Werewolf in London got my votes. I love both of those movies.

Hmmm.
I'd probably have to go with either Gremlins or Gremlins 2.

Young Frankenstein and Ghost Busters got the most laughs out of me. None of them are really scary. An American Werewolf in London was great, and funny in places, but that was the most scary of those listed. Although, I didn't see Bubba Ho Top or The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, so . . .

I voted for Young Frankenstein as well as the unlisted Shaun of the Dead. Classics both.

Bubba Ho Tep is okay, but I find Bruce Campbell more amusing in any of the Evil Dead movies, with Army of Darkness probably the one meant to be the finniest of the bunch.
I went with Young Frankenstein as the winner in this category. The 1930's Invisible Man makes me laugh. too. The Addams Family movies have some good bits in them. Shaun of the Dead has its moments, as does Zombieland. Trollhunter is kind of amusing in a mockumentary sort of way. Children SHouldn't Play with Dead Things has one good line in it, maybe others, I forget. Bloodbath at the House of Death, though, just makes me annoyed that the BBC doesn't release a Kenny Everett DVD collection. What We Do in Shadows has some good moments.

I liked American Werewolf for the special effects, which were state-of-the-art when it was made and looked awesome. I'd never seen anything like it before. There'd been The Howling, but the transformations weren't as gory or spectacular as in American Werewolf. Mostly, though, I liked it because it had Jenny Agutter in it as a nurse...who sometimes was not in her nurses uniform and stuff.

When he's changing and he says "I'm sorry I called you a meatloaf, Jack" is a favourite line of mine. The movie manages to combine the genuine horror of that scene with the comedic aspect of the whole thing, and the ending is tragic but then suddenly hilarious when the music starts. It's sort of a unique film in many regards.

Also Zombieland. Young Frankenstein is pretty great too. It's a hard thing to blend and get right.

I went Ghost busters just because any list with that movie on it has only one winner IMHO.

"Ghost and Mr. Chicken." It featured Don Knotts, and a ghost so persistent they couldn't get rid of it even when they used Bon Ami.
