* In ''Film/TheRageCarrie2'', [[spoiler:the death of Sue Snell]]. Throughout the film, she's trying to convince the lead character (Rachel) not to give into the telekinetic rage that consumed Carrie White in the original film. When the final act starts and Rachel predictably loses it, [[spoiler:Sue Snell]] walks up to the front door of the party she's in and attempts to open it to no avail. Rachel throws a fire poker that goes through the head of one partygoer, through the door and into [[spoiler:Sue's head]]. That's not the line-crossing part. It's when several shots after this show her body (and the body of the other partygoer) swinging side to side on the door as it gets thrown open and closed several times, looking like cheaply-made ragdolls in the process.

** In ''Film/RoboCop1987'', the prototype ED-209 enforcement drone malfunctions during a demonstration in the OCP boardroom and rips a young exec apart with an [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill extended and over-the-top]] [[MoreDakka heavy machine gun burst]], while technicians desperately try to shut it down. Most of the censored versions cut this to a short burst, and make the scene look more clinical and horrifying. The original scene has the 209 continue firing for over 10 seconds, long after anyone could possibly have survived, just chewing up the body. The joke is further emphasised once the shooting is (finally) over when a single meek voice asks "should we call a medic?" Even more ironic is that this is what made it originally X rated.

* Monty Python's comedy repertoire is ''made'' of this. [[Film/MontyPythonsTheMeaningOfLife The Meaning of Life]] has a number of good examples, like the "Every Sperm is Sacred" song. Lecturing children about the Catholic taboo against masturbation? That's not exactly funny. ''Singing'' about the evils of masturbation? Okay, that's pretty funny. Doing it in the form of a grand, cheerful, show-stopping, Broadway style CrowdSong, complete with an entire town of backup dancers and singers, and having the children's choir ''join in'', complete with sweet, angelic choir-style vocals? Absolutely hilarious.

Added DiffLines:
* ''Film/FleshForFrankenstein''. Evisceration is the order of the day - four characters are given this treatment, some of them ''multiple times''. Udo Kier finishes the movie giving a grandly defiant speech for several minutes with his gut hanging on a pole inserted through his middle.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6mCUoRYN3Y This]], from ''EvilAliens''
* ''Series/{{Lexx}}''
** The movies and series are based on this trope. Everything always ends with destruction of everything that appears in path of our protagonists. Like in the following joke: joke. (Note that out of all the mischief the crew unwillingly did, this was the only one to haunt Stan, ''especially the robot on the planet''.)
--> '''Stan:''' That planet is ugly. Lexx, destroy this planet after 1 minute.\\
'''Stan:''' ''(after some bargaining with planet inhabitants)'' Ok, cancel my command.\\
''[[EarthShatteringKaboom (BOOOOM...)]]\\
'''Lexx:''' Sorry, what does word cancel means?
** But while talking about Lexx and the carnage it left behind, let's not forget [[spoiler:being responsible for the destruction of countless (they ''were counted'', but I forgot how many) planets]] AND THEN [[spoiler:'''an entire universe''']].
* The ''Franchise/EvilDead'' movies practically ARE this trope.
* As are Creator/{{Troma}} Films (''Film/TheToxicAvenger'', etc.)
* ''Franchise/RoboCop''
** In ''Film/RoboCop1987'', the prototype ED-209 enforcement drone malfunctions during a demonstration in the OCP boardroom and rips a young exec apart with an [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill extended and over-the-top]] [[MoreDakka heavy machine gun burst]], while technicians desperately try to shut it down. Most of the censored versions cut this to a short burst, and make the scene look more clinical and horrifying. The original scene has the 209 continue firing for over 10 seconds, long after anyone could possibly have survived, just chewing up the body. The joke is further emphasised once the shooting is (finally) over when a single meek voice asks "should we call a medic?" Even more ironic is that this is what made it originally X rated.
** Played intentionally straight in ''Film/RoboCop2'', in a scene that is even more disturbing (and hilarious), where two [=RoboCop=] 2 prototypes are rolled out. OCP is trying to make new [=RoboCops=]. Out of the two prototypes that were taken all the way to a final showcasing, one went berserk and shot the scientists in the room before committing suicide, and one pulled off its own helmet, showing little more than a skull and some electronics before collapsing with an unearthly wail. The higher-up viewing videos of the aforementioned facepalms and mutters about the tremendous loss that the two failures represent: "Ninety million [dollars]". Video [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDsSrCFvz_A]]. ''Film/IronMan2'' has an homage to this scene--complete with such humor--when Stark leaks footage of Justin Hammer's failed armor prototypes.
* The Black Knight scene in ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail''. One severed limb is appalling; four severed limbs is hilarious (the second line in this case probably falls at [[RuleOfThree three]]). In the Monty Python HBO interview special, they say that's exactly what they were going for. Creator/JohnCleese said the scene would be heartless and sadistic if not for the fact that the knight [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction shows no pain and doesn't really care what happens]].
** They also used humorously gratuitous violence in their sketch "Sam Peckinpah's Salad Days" (from the TV series), which brought fountains of HighPressureBlood to a picnic scene.
** And of course, a row of increasingly tasteless sketches with cannibalistic sketches which culminate in The Undertaker Sketch which is written for no other purpose than to offend.
* The 1992 comedy ''[[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104283/ Folks]]!'' starring Tom Selleck, may be a good example of this. The movie is not only built on a {{squick}} premise, but involves the hero enduring serious injury after serious, ''permanently disfiguring,'' injury in the course of otherwise typical slapstick violence.
* Although it doesn't involve violence on more than a slapstick level, the naked fight in ''Film/{{Borat}}'' attempts a version of this trope. Two guys fighting naked in a hotel room is already borderline after nearly a minute, taking it out into the hall is just excessive, sending them charging into a conference room... well, it depends on each viewer where you stopped laughing and whether you started again.
** Both ''Film/{{Borat}}'' and ''Film/{{Bruno}}'' are built around this trope.
*** Although Sacha does emphasize the long European tradition of mocking Americans for not being Europeans. In some parts of the world [[ValuesDissonance what he did was seen as completely normal]] (albeit the baby was to have everyone treat America as 'srs bsns', same with the nude scene just to get a reaction from the homophobes in the audience), yet all he did was suffer abuse from others, especially as Borat. No one stopped to think "wait, this guy is from a different country".
*** In {{Borat}}, the portrayal of Kazakhstan is so ignorant and over-the-top it goes beyond offensiveness. It may explain why the film got a niche popularity in Kazakhstan itself.
* The intended effect of Tom Green's film ''Film/FreddyGotFingered''. Opinions on the film lie somewhere between "a fit of twisted genius" and "why the hell did I watch this?" Beware, some of the film's more outrageous moments listed below are definitely [[NotSafeForWork NSFW]]. You have been warned:
** About 6 minutes into the film, Green leaps out of his car, runs over to a horse and masturbates its penis for no reason whilst saying "Look, Daddy, I'm a farmer!"
** Green's friend rips his knee open whilst skateboarding and Green licks the open wound.
** Later, he visits his friend in hospital and a pregnant woman in the bed next to his friend goes into labor because he's being so annoying. Green rips the baby out, cuts its umbilical cord with his teeth, and then "wakes it up" by swinging it around his head like a lasso by said umbilical cord.
** He falsely accuses his father of sexually molesting his teenage brother, Freddy. This completely random scene is the whole reason for the film's title.
*** He also falsely accuses his brother of being a teenager. [[spoiler: Events in the film make it clear the brother is an adult and just happens to look about 13. He does work in a bank at the kind of job where you need to wear a suit, after all.]]
** Not to be forgotten: Green skinning forest animals so that he can wear their still bloody skins and prance around the wood; Green's father (played by Rip Torn) exposing his butt to Green and yelling [[spoiler: "Fuck me"]]; Green having a kinky sado-masochist relationship with a paraplegic woman; and to some the most disturbing, a neighbour kid that gets hurt progressively worse throughout the film; the disturbing part is camera sadistically lingering on the wounded kid crying.
*** Perhaps Creator/RogerEbert's infamous review puts it best:
---> This movie doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. [[InsultToRocks This movie doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels]]... The day may come when ''Freddy Got Fingered'' is seen as a milestone of neo-surrealism. The day may never come when it is seen as funny.
*** Or, as [[WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh Oancitizen]] so succinctly put it:
---> It's too normal to be UsefulNotes/{{dada}}, and too shit to be anything else!
* In fact, this is a signature of The Joker in almost any media - the one from Creator/TimBurton's ''Film/{{Batman}}'' made us laugh as he gassed a roomful of people... to music. The ''[[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries Animated Series]]'' Joker generally didn't get much of a body count, but funnily blowing up empty buildings (like the hospital from ''The Dark Knight'') was well within his reach, and in TheMovie ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyondReturnOfTheJoker'', he makes a few really funny one-liners while revealing that he [[ColdBloodedTorture tortured]] a child until his identity was broken and believed himself to be the Joker's son. Listing all the sociopathic hilarity that the Joker has unleashed on the world of comics would fill several pages this size.
** In ''Film/TheDarkKnight'', Joker blows the line straight to Hell before asking if you want to know how he got those bloody scars.
*** [[EyeScream "You wanna see a magic trick?" ]]
* Several gags in ''Film/{{Airplane}}'' are only funny because they manage to cross the line twice.
* ''Film/TheBigLebowski'': "What's this day of rest shit? What's this bullshit? I don't fuckin' care! It don't matter to Jesus. But you're not foolin' me, man. You might fool the fucks in the league office, but you don't fool Jesus. This bush league psyche-out stuff. Laughable, man - ha ha! I would have fucked you in the ass Saturday. I fuck you in the ass next Wednesday instead. Wooo! You got a date Wednesday, baby!"
** "Do you see what happens, Larry, when you FUCK A ''STRANGER IN THE ASS?''"
* This is why ''Film/TheProposition'''s Jellon Lamb is such a delight, especially when he gets to lines like "What is an Irishman but a nigger turned inside out?"
* An overwhelming number of scenes in Creator/PeterJackson's ''Film/BadTaste'' contain slapstick violence taken to a ludicrous extreme.
** "A headshot's the only ''true'' stopper!" Cue two point-blank cranium-destroying headshots with a large revolver.
** Or the final killing blow against the Big Bad, in which the hero [[spoiler: dives from the ceiling, chainsaw-first, towards the top of the monster's head, emerges from between its legs covered in gore, and quips that he is "born again".]]
** Same with ''[[Film/{{Braindead}} Dead Alive]]''. Lawnmower + zombies anyone?
* ''Film/RikiOhTheStoryOfRicky'' is a movie devoted to this concept, whether or not the makers intended it. Every single fight scene in the movie includes something horrifyingly violent done in such an over-the-top manner that it becomes hilarious. Picking out highlights is hard, but [[spoiler: Ricky punching a hole in a fat man's belly, a guy's skull getting smashed like an eggshell, and the one guy trying to strangle Ricky using his own intestines]] stand out as Memorable Moments.
** Not to mention the scene near the end where Riki pushes an oni into a meat grinder.
** "Alright! [[{{Pun}} You got a lot of guts, Oscar]]!"
* ''Film/TeamAmericaWorldPolice''
** The scene with the vomiting puppet. The dramatic music takes it over the top.
** Not to mention the sex scene. Just in general.
** The speech about dicks, pussies and assholes
* ''Film/TheAristocrats''. Any half-decent rendition should cross the line at least a dozen times, in every direction. Creator/BobSaget practically picks up the line and jumps rope with it in his rendition.
* ''Film/InglouriousBasterds'' does this a lot, but the most awesome one is [[spoiler: the assassination plot, where they bust in, shoot down Hitler with [=MP40's=], and empty their clips into the body of Joseph Goebbels. Then they reload, shoot the entire subsequent magazine's worth into Hitler's face and to top it off, the entire theater ''explodes''.]]
* Anything by Creator/JohnWaters. Cherish in ''Film/CecilBDemented'' takes this UpToEleven with her claim "When I was ten years old, my entire family fucked me under the Christmas tree!" Even by Waters' standards, this is a doozy.
* The maximum bloody Crazy 88 fight scene in ''Film/KillBill'' Vol 1. At first the blood is a powerful and startling effect. But after a while the ridiculously high pressure and copious volumes of blood from even minor wounds, combined with the sheer number of bodies piling up at The Bride's feet become a source of gory amusement. Note that the high pressure effect was used in O-Ren's backstory anime to good dramatic effect.
** Before that, we have O-Ren's introduction scene, where, after an [[BerserkButton insult to her heritage]], she [[spoiler: lops off a rival crimelord's head. His]] neck proceeds to shoot blood ''five feet'' into the air for a solid 10-15 seconds, which only makes it hilarious.
** After that, the fight with Gogo doesn't quite make it, but [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk2A-zOum9Y this does]].
* ''Film/KickAss'': A lot more than twice actually. Single scene example: Dave gets stabbed in the gut. The audience winces. He then staggers out into the street and gets ''flipped'' by a car. The audience starts laughing.
** ''Film/KickAss2'':
*** The attempted rape scene. [[spoiler: The Tumor holds down Night Bitch and Mother Fucker prepares to rape her...only to be embarrassed when he gets erectile dysfunction and starts playing himself to try and get "ready," all the while The Tumor and even Night Bitch are laughing at him]].
*** The Motherfucker's choice for some of the names of his team of villains. Genghis Carnage and Black Death, anyone?
-->'''Javier:''' Chris, Jesus, maybe you could pick something less ''horrifically racist?''
* Creator/LloydKaufman, director of such classics as ''Film/TheToxicAvenger'', ''Film/ClassOfNukeEmHigh'', and ''Film/TromeoAndJuliet'', pretty much makes this his code.
* Much of ''Film/{{Machete}}'''s fun comes from this. At the very least the scenes in which Machete [[spoiler: eviscerates one of the men sent to kill him and uses his intestines to swing from a window]] qualifies.
* Like ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', Creator/TreyParkerAndMattStone's earlier work ''Film/CannibalTheMusical'' runs on this. A musical about Alferd Packer (not a typo), a prospector in late 1800s Colorado who was tried for murder when he returned from being snowed into the Rocky Mountains [[ImAHumanitarian remarkably well fed and alone]].
* [[EverythingsDeaderWithZombies Pretty much any flick to have anything to do with zombies that isn't horror]] will use this.
* This trope is the source of the ''primary conflict'' in ''Film/TheProducers'': Due to [[YouWereTryingTooHard Trying Too Hard]] and SoBadItsGood, SpringtimeForHitler ends up being a [[CrowningMomentOfFunny Crowning Musical of Funny]], thus fouling the titular characters' tax fraud scheme.
* The ending of ''Film/PennAndTellerGetKilled'' has [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUNagJXEvG4 Teller accidentally killing Penn Jilette]], and is so (realistically) distraught at killing him shoots himself in the head in front of Penn's girlfriend. Her realistic inability to handle the tragedy causes her to spin in an anguished circle and toss herself out of the window. It crosses the line twice when this sets off an ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIxxVYuxl64 endless chain of suicides around the Earth]]'' as The Bee Gee's ''I Started a Joke'' plays (with the super apropos lyrics "I started a joke which started the whole world crying - but I didn't see that the joke was on me!" Penn explains in voice over that since the title of the movie was ''Penn & Teller Get Killed'', people would feel ripped off if it wasn't ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
* ''Film/TheHouseOfYes'' has a moment in which a character relates that she once went to a costume party as Jackie Onassis in the pink dress she wore when JFK was assassinated,... complete with fake blood and brains splattered on it.
* Just like the games, ''VideoGame/{{Postal}}'' deserves to be here. The tagline for the movie: "Some movies go too far... others start there"
* While not as strong an example as some of the others, in the 2009 Film/StarTrek movie there's a scene where [[spoiler: Spock's mother falls over the edge of a cliff, making it impossible to beam her up to the Enterprise and thus killing her.]] The title for the part of the soundtrack from this scene? [[spoiler: "I've Fallen and I Can't Beam Up!"]]
* Over-the-top fighting scenes with premises that make them plausible:
** ''Franchise/TheMatrix'' trilogy
** ''Film/ShaolinSoccer''
** ''Film/GodOfCookery''
** ''Film/TheyLive''
* ''Film/FunnyGames'', both of them, are really sadistic. These movies are a satire of this trope, as well as a commentary on "torture-porn" violence.
* ''Film/TheMuppetChristmasCarol'' has JustForFun/StatlerAndWaldorf laughing about the time they shut down an orphanage on Christmas. They remember all the little tykes in the snow with their frostbitten teddy bears.
* Violence against women is really not a laughing matter, but in Denmark the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO3LwBKxAkM egg-blowing scene]] from the 2006 comedy ''Blinkende Lygter'', about [[TrueCompanions four gangsters from Copenhagen]], who hide from their former boss in an abandoned country inn, is generally considered the funniest thing to hit the silver screen that decade.
** And yes, [[HeyItsThatGuy that is]] [[Film/CasinoRoyale Le Chiffre]] behind the long hair and the moustache.
** A lot of non-danish speakers lash out at this, calling it glorification of violence against women. However, she has spent the majority of the film constantly being a pain in the ass and emotionally dominating and abusing another of the main characters (in a sort of unaware "I'm the girlfriend so I decide everything" kind of way) up to this point - that, combined with the childishness of the situation is what makes the punch very satisfying and hilarious.
* In ''Film/TheKingsSpeech'', during the future King George VI's speech therapy sessions with Lionel Logue, it is noticed that he doesn't stutter when he's swearing. Lionel proceeds to provoke him into a ClusterFBomb that would offend a sailor, and in fact [[AvoidTheDreadedGRating was pretty much the only reason why the movie was rated R when it'd otherwise be at most PG]]. It is also ''[[Funny/TheKingsSpeech hysterical]]''.
* Lars von Trier's ''Film/TheIdiots'', like many of his films, tries to ignore the line as much as possible. On offer are (intentionally) badly shot scenes of both male and female full-frontal nudity as well [[spoiler: unsimulated sex]]. However, a greater deal of criticism instead regards the plot point of having people pretending to be mentally disabled, partially for the sake of humour. Some claim that von Trier wouldn't have gotten away with as much as he did without abusing TrueArt, while some definitely think it's more than admirable for what it eventually does with itself.
* The gentleman's club in ''Film/MysteryTeam''. Made funnier/worse by the fact that the people in question are practically seven (and they meet an ACTUAL seven year old).
* ''Tin Cup''. An interesting case, in which Roy keeps trying to get the ball in the hole on one shot over, and over, and over, and over. It goes from being painful, to pathetic, to ''hysterical'', to finally (and unlikely!) '''''triumphant'''''.
* ''Film/BlazingSaddles'' is built on this: Gratuitous use of the word 'nigger' and BlackComedyRape to name a few.
* The original CBS/Fox release of the Film/JamesBond movie ''Film/LicenceToKill'' starts with "A Very Public Service Message" from Schweppes that warns that the feature presentation contains gratuitous violence through its spokesman as said spokesman dodges numerous attempts on his life, including a razor hat boomerang, a knight's axe, an exposed electrical wire (which kills said knight, elicits a digitally altered WilhelmScream, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking causes the spokesman to think it's time for dinner]]), a booby trap placed by a window, a femme fatale, a ninja, and an assassin behind a door before having four bullets emptied into him by an offscreen gun that sweeps the screen from left to right. He doesn't realize he's been shot until the cup of Schweppes he just drank starts leaking out of his bullet holes.
** Also in LTK, Franz Sanchez' response after he kills Krest [[ExplosiveDecompression by locking him inside a decompression chamber]] with ([[AppleOfDiscord supposedly]]) stolen money. It's possible the only Film/JamesBond movie where the villain gets a better BondOneLiner than Bond himself:
-->'''Perez:''' What about the money, ''Patron''?
-->'''Sanchez:''' (''{{beat}}'') Launder it.
* The [[{{Mondo}} shockumentary]] ''Traces of Death'' has footage of a bear climbing a telephone pole, getting electrocuted, falling, then wrestling with animal control.
* ''Film/TheDictator'' certainly tries this. Sacha Baron Cohen's dictator, Aladeen's every line is horrifically offensive. In one scene, he is discussing dropping nuclear weapons on Israel - but he believes the weapons will behave like the bombs in ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes''. In another, he plays a Wii terrorism video game and plays a level where he shoots caricatures of Jews in Munich. His advisers call for him, so he agrees to come see them right after his current level. Cue the video game narrator saying, "Bonus level, Mass Grave," then cut to Cohen miming digging one with his Wii-mote controller. Aladeen is not the only character to engage in this kind of antics.
* Dusan Makavejev said that the point of ''Sweet Movie'' was to assault the viewer with a barrage of progressively more shocking images until they were finally reborn, like the characters in it.
* Said Creator/RogerEbert, about ''Film/ShootEmUp'':
-->"I may disapprove of a movie for going too far, and yet have a sneaky regard for a movie that goes much, much farther than merely too far."
** The quote was so appropriate, it spent a long period of time as the page quote for this trope.
* The scenes in ''Film/IronMan1'' where Tony kept smacking into things while testing his suit was funny in all the wrong ways. "10% thrust." ''Splat!''
** ''Film/IronMan2'':
*** The video footage of the Hammerdroid's test malfunction [[spoiler:(twisting around so fast it snaps the pilot's spine) evokes a ThatsGottaHurt gasp of sympathy from the audience. But Hammer's mealy-mouthed attempts to gloss over the failure by insisting that the pilot survived cross it back into a joke at his expense is quite funnier, as is his later statement that people are reluctant to volunteer to test them "for some reason."]]
*** Also, Tony's birthday party. "Iron Man, how do you go to the bathroom in that suit? ...just like that." Not funny. Giving an actual technobabble answer about filtration and being able to drink that? ''Now'' it's funny.
* You could argue the entire movie is this, but when you see the scene when Film/ForrestGump explains Lt. Dan was from a long military tradition, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9c8Rba5NVE and then you see a Death Montage of Gary Sinise (the actor playing Lt. Dan) playing a different ancestor just at the moment of his death, in a different battleground, with a war uniform more modern that the last]], you don't think that the movie is mocking those soldiers patriotism or sacrifice, but you see as questioning the intelligence and sanity of GloryHound Lt. Dan, whose desire to die in battle makes Forrest seem like a genius by comparison.
* Zazie dans la Metro somehow manages to turn a pedophile chasing a ten year old girl into something out of ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes''.
* The use of CountryMatters in ''Film/BeingJohnMalkovich'' is a textbook example. When the agent shakes hands with [[GrandTheftMe Craig-in-Malkovich's-body]] and says, "Sorry about the cunt at reception," it seems like an attempt to shock and feels a bit misjudged. It's with the immediate repetition, when he shakes Maxine's hand and says the same thing as if it's just part of the polite routine of introductions, that it becomes hilarious.
* ''Film/TheMummy1999''. [[BigBad Imhotep]] ''plucking out the eyes'' of [[RedShirt one of the American mercenaries the protagonists hired]]? [[NightmareFuel Horrific]]. Imhotep winding up with the guy's astigmatism? Hilarious!
* ''Film/TheJerk'': Navin Johnson, after becoming very wealthy from his Opti-Grab eyeglasses, is speaking with some developers thinking about building an apartment complex. Navin is onboard until they say they want to "keep the niggers out". Navin, who grew up in a black family, [[BerserkButton doesn't take kindly to this]], yelling [[PreAssKickingOneLiner "Sir, you are talking to a nigger!"]], and kicks everyone's ass.
* ''Film/FinalDestination'': [[GallowsHumor Death has a sense of humour like this, apparently.]] Racist dumb redneck planting a burning cross into a black guy's front lawn? That's not funny. Death disengages the handbrake to his truck, locks the front door, and sets the radio to play "Why Can't We Be Friends?", ruining his plan? That's pretty funny. Racist's leg gets caught on a hook and chain dragging behind the truck while he's trying to stop it, leaving him being dragged down the street by his truck while he's on fire, ''with the song still playing at higher volume''? That's absolutely hysterical!
%% * ''[[Film/{{Neighbors2014}} Neighbors]]'': Practically the whole movie.
* The Film/SixteenCandles scenes involing AsianAndNerdy Long Duk Dong are a mix of [[UnfortunateImplications "OMFG THAT'S SO FUCKING RACIST!"]] and [[Funny/SixteenCandles "OMFG I SHOULDN'T LAUGH BUT I CAN'T STOP!"]]. Specially one that involves a bike...
* Film/TropicThunder takes this trope and runs off with it. To put it on perspective: while there are a few instances of this, most of the time it's more [[RefugeInAudacity crossing the line and going on for about seventeen more miles, never looking back.]] And it wouldn't be half as funny and awesome as it is, if it wasn't made of this trope.
** In example? Read the blurb on Kirk Lazarus, played by Creator/RobertDowneyJr: ''"An immensely talented Australian method actor, Lazarus had a controversial "pigmentation alteration" surgery to darken his skin for his portrayal of the black character Sergeant Lincoln Osiris. Lazarus refuses to break character while filming and only speaks in his character's Black English."'' As a result Lazarus's lines would be horribly offensive, were he played by an actual black guy... but end up being hilarious '''because''' this wasn't the case.
* ''Film/{{Whiplash}}'': Many, many of Fletcher's interactions with his students can make for this. He'll often call out his students on a mistake, and then compound on this by making fun of the student for either their nervousness or for a specific aspect about them, be it weight or [[spoiler: their mother walking out on them]].
* ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService'':
** [[spoiler:The entire sequence where Merlin sets off everyone's chips making the heads of every single one of Valentine's soldiers and/or allies explode in a row, each in a stream of colourful fireworks, and all to the tune of Pomp and Circumstance.]]
** The entire church scene. A bunch of (terrible) people being forced to murder their friends and family against their will? Horrifying. Doing so the tune of Music/LynyrdSkynyrd's ''Free Bird''? You might just have this trope.
* [[Film/TheNuttyProfessor "You know Mike Douglas used to make me moist when I'd watch his show?"]]
----
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6mCUoRYN3Y This]], from ''EvilAliens''
* ''Series/{{Lexx}}''
** The movies and series are based on this trope. Everything always ends with destruction of everything that appears in path of our protagonists. Like in the following joke: joke. (Note that out of all the mischief the crew unwillingly did, this was the only one to haunt Stan, ''especially the robot on the planet''.)
--> '''Stan:''' That planet is ugly. Lexx, destroy this planet after 1 minute.\\
'''Stan:''' ''(after some bargaining with planet inhabitants)'' Ok, cancel my command.\\
''[[EarthShatteringKaboom (BOOOOM...)]]\\
'''Lexx:''' Sorry, what does word cancel means?
** But while talking about Lexx and the carnage it left behind, let's not forget [[spoiler:being responsible for the destruction of countless (they ''were counted'', but I forgot how many) planets]] AND THEN [[spoiler:'''an entire universe''']].
* The ''Franchise/EvilDead'' movies practically ARE this trope.
* As are Creator/{{Troma}} Films (''Film/TheToxicAvenger'', etc.)
* ''Franchise/RoboCop''
** In ''Film/RoboCop1987'', the prototype ED-209 enforcement drone malfunctions during a demonstration in the OCP boardroom and rips a young exec apart with an [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill extended and over-the-top]] [[MoreDakka heavy machine gun burst]], while technicians desperately try to shut it down. Most of the censored versions cut this to a short burst, and make the scene look more clinical and horrifying. The original scene has the 209 continue firing for over 10 seconds, long after anyone could possibly have survived, just chewing up the body. The joke is further emphasised once the shooting is (finally) over when a single meek voice asks "should we call a medic?" Even more ironic is that this is what made it originally X rated.
** Played intentionally straight in ''Film/RoboCop2'', in a scene that is even more disturbing (and hilarious), where two [=RoboCop=] 2 prototypes are rolled out. OCP is trying to make new [=RoboCops=]. Out of the two prototypes that were taken all the way to a final showcasing, one went berserk and shot the scientists in the room before committing suicide, and one pulled off its own helmet, showing little more than a skull and some electronics before collapsing with an unearthly wail. The higher-up viewing videos of the aforementioned facepalms and mutters about the tremendous loss that the two failures represent: "Ninety million [dollars]". Video [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDsSrCFvz_A]]. ''Film/IronMan2'' has an homage to this scene--complete with such humor--when Stark leaks footage of Justin Hammer's failed armor prototypes.
* The Black Knight scene in ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail''. One severed limb is appalling; four severed limbs is hilarious (the second line in this case probably falls at [[RuleOfThree three]]). In the Monty Python HBO interview special, they say that's exactly what they were going for. Creator/JohnCleese said the scene would be heartless and sadistic if not for the fact that the knight [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction shows no pain and doesn't really care what happens]].
** They also used humorously gratuitous violence in their sketch "Sam Peckinpah's Salad Days" (from the TV series), which brought fountains of HighPressureBlood to a picnic scene.
** And of course, a row of increasingly tasteless sketches with cannibalistic sketches which culminate in The Undertaker Sketch which is written for no other purpose than to offend.
* The 1992 comedy ''[[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104283/ Folks]]!'' starring Tom Selleck, may be a good example of this. The movie is not only built on a {{squick}} premise, but involves the hero enduring serious injury after serious, ''permanently disfiguring,'' injury in the course of otherwise typical slapstick violence.
* Although it doesn't involve violence on more than a slapstick level, the naked fight in ''Film/{{Borat}}'' attempts a version of this trope. Two guys fighting naked in a hotel room is already borderline after nearly a minute, taking it out into the hall is just excessive, sending them charging into a conference room... well, it depends on each viewer where you stopped laughing and whether you started again.
** Both ''Film/{{Borat}}'' and ''Film/{{Bruno}}'' are built around this trope.
*** Although Sacha does emphasize the long European tradition of mocking Americans for not being Europeans. In some parts of the world [[ValuesDissonance what he did was seen as completely normal]] (albeit the baby was to have everyone treat America as 'srs bsns', same with the nude scene just to get a reaction from the homophobes in the audience), yet all he did was suffer abuse from others, especially as Borat. No one stopped to think "wait, this guy is from a different country".
*** In {{Borat}}, the portrayal of Kazakhstan is so ignorant and over-the-top it goes beyond offensiveness. It may explain why the film got a niche popularity in Kazakhstan itself.
* The intended effect of Tom Green's film ''Film/FreddyGotFingered''. Opinions on the film lie somewhere between "a fit of twisted genius" and "why the hell did I watch this?" Beware, some of the film's more outrageous moments listed below are definitely [[NotSafeForWork NSFW]]. You have been warned:
** About 6 minutes into the film, Green leaps out of his car, runs over to a horse and masturbates its penis for no reason whilst saying "Look, Daddy, I'm a farmer!"
** Green's friend rips his knee open whilst skateboarding and Green licks the open wound.
** Later, he visits his friend in hospital and a pregnant woman in the bed next to his friend goes into labor because he's being so annoying. Green rips the baby out, cuts its umbilical cord with his teeth, and then "wakes it up" by swinging it around his head like a lasso by said umbilical cord.
** He falsely accuses his father of sexually molesting his teenage brother, Freddy. This completely random scene is the whole reason for the film's title.
*** He also falsely accuses his brother of being a teenager. [[spoiler: Events in the film make it clear the brother is an adult and just happens to look about 13. He does work in a bank at the kind of job where you need to wear a suit, after all.]]
** Not to be forgotten: Green skinning forest animals so that he can wear their still bloody skins and prance around the wood; Green's father (played by Rip Torn) exposing his butt to Green and yelling [[spoiler: "Fuck me"]]; Green having a kinky sado-masochist relationship with a paraplegic woman; and to some the most disturbing, a neighbour kid that gets hurt progressively worse throughout the film; the disturbing part is camera sadistically lingering on the wounded kid crying.
*** Perhaps Creator/RogerEbert's infamous review puts it best:
---> This movie doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. [[InsultToRocks This movie doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels]]... The day may come when ''Freddy Got Fingered'' is seen as a milestone of neo-surrealism. The day may never come when it is seen as funny.
*** Or, as [[WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh Oancitizen]] so succinctly put it:
---> It's too normal to be UsefulNotes/{{dada}}, and too shit to be anything else!
* In fact, this is a signature of The Joker in almost any media - the one from Creator/TimBurton's ''Film/{{Batman}}'' made us laugh as he gassed a roomful of people... to music. The ''[[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries Animated Series]]'' Joker generally didn't get much of a body count, but funnily blowing up empty buildings (like the hospital from ''The Dark Knight'') was well within his reach, and in TheMovie ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyondReturnOfTheJoker'', he makes a few really funny one-liners while revealing that he [[ColdBloodedTorture tortured]] a child until his identity was broken and believed himself to be the Joker's son. Listing all the sociopathic hilarity that the Joker has unleashed on the world of comics would fill several pages this size.
** In ''Film/TheDarkKnight'', Joker blows the line straight to Hell before asking if you want to know how he got those bloody scars.
*** [[EyeScream "You wanna see a magic trick?" ]]
* Several gags in ''Film/{{Airplane}}'' are only funny because they manage to cross the line twice.
* ''Film/TheBigLebowski'': "What's this day of rest shit? What's this bullshit? I don't fuckin' care! It don't matter to Jesus. But you're not foolin' me, man. You might fool the fucks in the league office, but you don't fool Jesus. This bush league psyche-out stuff. Laughable, man - ha ha! I would have fucked you in the ass Saturday. I fuck you in the ass next Wednesday instead. Wooo! You got a date Wednesday, baby!"
** "Do you see what happens, Larry, when you FUCK A ''STRANGER IN THE ASS?''"
* This is why ''Film/TheProposition'''s Jellon Lamb is such a delight, especially when he gets to lines like "What is an Irishman but a nigger turned inside out?"
* An overwhelming number of scenes in Creator/PeterJackson's ''Film/BadTaste'' contain slapstick violence taken to a ludicrous extreme.
** "A headshot's the only ''true'' stopper!" Cue two point-blank cranium-destroying headshots with a large revolver.
** Or the final killing blow against the Big Bad, in which the hero [[spoiler: dives from the ceiling, chainsaw-first, towards the top of the monster's head, emerges from between its legs covered in gore, and quips that he is "born again".]]
** Same with ''[[Film/{{Braindead}} Dead Alive]]''. Lawnmower + zombies anyone?
* ''Film/RikiOhTheStoryOfRicky'' is a movie devoted to this concept, whether or not the makers intended it. Every single fight scene in the movie includes something horrifyingly violent done in such an over-the-top manner that it becomes hilarious. Picking out highlights is hard, but [[spoiler: Ricky punching a hole in a fat man's belly, a guy's skull getting smashed like an eggshell, and the one guy trying to strangle Ricky using his own intestines]] stand out as Memorable Moments.
** Not to mention the scene near the end where Riki pushes an oni into a meat grinder.
** "Alright! [[{{Pun}} You got a lot of guts, Oscar]]!"
* ''Film/TeamAmericaWorldPolice''
** The scene with the vomiting puppet. The dramatic music takes it over the top.
** Not to mention the sex scene. Just in general.
** The speech about dicks, pussies and assholes
* ''Film/TheAristocrats''. Any half-decent rendition should cross the line at least a dozen times, in every direction. Creator/BobSaget practically picks up the line and jumps rope with it in his rendition.
* ''Film/InglouriousBasterds'' does this a lot, but the most awesome one is [[spoiler: the assassination plot, where they bust in, shoot down Hitler with [=MP40's=], and empty their clips into the body of Joseph Goebbels. Then they reload, shoot the entire subsequent magazine's worth into Hitler's face and to top it off, the entire theater ''explodes''.]]
* Anything by Creator/JohnWaters. Cherish in ''Film/CecilBDemented'' takes this UpToEleven with her claim "When I was ten years old, my entire family fucked me under the Christmas tree!" Even by Waters' standards, this is a doozy.
* The maximum bloody Crazy 88 fight scene in ''Film/KillBill'' Vol 1. At first the blood is a powerful and startling effect. But after a while the ridiculously high pressure and copious volumes of blood from even minor wounds, combined with the sheer number of bodies piling up at The Bride's feet become a source of gory amusement. Note that the high pressure effect was used in O-Ren's backstory anime to good dramatic effect.
** Before that, we have O-Ren's introduction scene, where, after an [[BerserkButton insult to her heritage]], she [[spoiler: lops off a rival crimelord's head. His]] neck proceeds to shoot blood ''five feet'' into the air for a solid 10-15 seconds, which only makes it hilarious.
** After that, the fight with Gogo doesn't quite make it, but [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk2A-zOum9Y this does]].
* ''Film/KickAss'': A lot more than twice actually. Single scene example: Dave gets stabbed in the gut. The audience winces. He then staggers out into the street and gets ''flipped'' by a car. The audience starts laughing.
** ''Film/KickAss2'':
*** The attempted rape scene. [[spoiler: The Tumor holds down Night Bitch and Mother Fucker prepares to rape her...only to be embarrassed when he gets erectile dysfunction and starts playing himself to try and get "ready," all the while The Tumor and even Night Bitch are laughing at him]].
*** The Motherfucker's choice for some of the names of his team of villains. Genghis Carnage and Black Death, anyone?
-->'''Javier:''' Chris, Jesus, maybe you could pick something less ''horrifically racist?''
* Creator/LloydKaufman, director of such classics as ''Film/TheToxicAvenger'', ''Film/ClassOfNukeEmHigh'', and ''Film/TromeoAndJuliet'', pretty much makes this his code.
* Much of ''Film/{{Machete}}'''s fun comes from this. At the very least the scenes in which Machete [[spoiler: eviscerates one of the men sent to kill him and uses his intestines to swing from a window]] qualifies.
* Like ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', Creator/TreyParkerAndMattStone's earlier work ''Film/CannibalTheMusical'' runs on this. A musical about Alferd Packer (not a typo), a prospector in late 1800s Colorado who was tried for murder when he returned from being snowed into the Rocky Mountains [[ImAHumanitarian remarkably well fed and alone]].
* [[EverythingsDeaderWithZombies Pretty much any flick to have anything to do with zombies that isn't horror]] will use this.
* This trope is the source of the ''primary conflict'' in ''Film/TheProducers'': Due to [[YouWereTryingTooHard Trying Too Hard]] and SoBadItsGood, SpringtimeForHitler ends up being a [[CrowningMomentOfFunny Crowning Musical of Funny]], thus fouling the titular characters' tax fraud scheme.
* The ending of ''Film/PennAndTellerGetKilled'' has [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUNagJXEvG4 Teller accidentally killing Penn Jilette]], and is so (realistically) distraught at killing him shoots himself in the head in front of Penn's girlfriend. Her realistic inability to handle the tragedy causes her to spin in an anguished circle and toss herself out of the window. It crosses the line twice when this sets off an ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIxxVYuxl64 endless chain of suicides around the Earth]]'' as The Bee Gee's ''I Started a Joke'' plays (with the super apropos lyrics "I started a joke which started the whole world crying - but I didn't see that the joke was on me!" Penn explains in voice over that since the title of the movie was ''Penn & Teller Get Killed'', people would feel ripped off if it wasn't ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin.
* ''Film/TheHouseOfYes'' has a moment in which a character relates that she once went to a costume party as Jackie Onassis in the pink dress she wore when JFK was assassinated,... complete with fake blood and brains splattered on it.
* Just like the games, ''VideoGame/{{Postal}}'' deserves to be here. The tagline for the movie: "Some movies go too far... others start there"
* While not as strong an example as some of the others, in the 2009 Film/StarTrek movie there's a scene where [[spoiler: Spock's mother falls over the edge of a cliff, making it impossible to beam her up to the Enterprise and thus killing her.]] The title for the part of the soundtrack from this scene? [[spoiler: "I've Fallen and I Can't Beam Up!"]]
* Over-the-top fighting scenes with premises that make them plausible:
** ''Franchise/TheMatrix'' trilogy
** ''Film/ShaolinSoccer''
** ''Film/GodOfCookery''
** ''Film/TheyLive''
* ''Film/FunnyGames'', both of them, are really sadistic. These movies are a satire of this trope, as well as a commentary on "torture-porn" violence.
* ''Film/TheMuppetChristmasCarol'' has JustForFun/StatlerAndWaldorf laughing about the time they shut down an orphanage on Christmas. They remember all the little tykes in the snow with their frostbitten teddy bears.
* Violence against women is really not a laughing matter, but in Denmark the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO3LwBKxAkM egg-blowing scene]] from the 2006 comedy ''Blinkende Lygter'', about [[TrueCompanions four gangsters from Copenhagen]], who hide from their former boss in an abandoned country inn, is generally considered the funniest thing to hit the silver screen that decade.
** And yes, [[HeyItsThatGuy that is]] [[Film/CasinoRoyale Le Chiffre]] behind the long hair and the moustache.
** A lot of non-danish speakers lash out at this, calling it glorification of violence against women. However, she has spent the majority of the film constantly being a pain in the ass and emotionally dominating and abusing another of the main characters (in a sort of unaware "I'm the girlfriend so I decide everything" kind of way) up to this point - that, combined with the childishness of the situation is what makes the punch very satisfying and hilarious.
* In ''Film/TheKingsSpeech'', during the future King George VI's speech therapy sessions with Lionel Logue, it is noticed that he doesn't stutter when he's swearing. Lionel proceeds to provoke him into a ClusterFBomb that would offend a sailor, and in fact [[AvoidTheDreadedGRating was pretty much the only reason why the movie was rated R when it'd otherwise be at most PG]]. It is also ''[[Funny/TheKingsSpeech hysterical]]''.
* Lars von Trier's ''Film/TheIdiots'', like many of his films, tries to ignore the line as much as possible. On offer are (intentionally) badly shot scenes of both male and female full-frontal nudity as well [[spoiler: unsimulated sex]]. However, a greater deal of criticism instead regards the plot point of having people pretending to be mentally disabled, partially for the sake of humour. Some claim that von Trier wouldn't have gotten away with as much as he did without abusing TrueArt, while some definitely think it's more than admirable for what it eventually does with itself.
* The gentleman's club in ''Film/MysteryTeam''. Made funnier/worse by the fact that the people in question are practically seven (and they meet an ACTUAL seven year old).
* ''Tin Cup''. An interesting case, in which Roy keeps trying to get the ball in the hole on one shot over, and over, and over, and over. It goes from being painful, to pathetic, to ''hysterical'', to finally (and unlikely!) '''''triumphant'''''.
* ''Film/BlazingSaddles'' is built on this: Gratuitous use of the word 'nigger' and BlackComedyRape to name a few.
* The original CBS/Fox release of the Film/JamesBond movie ''Film/LicenceToKill'' starts with "A Very Public Service Message" from Schweppes that warns that the feature presentation contains gratuitous violence through its spokesman as said spokesman dodges numerous attempts on his life, including a razor hat boomerang, a knight's axe, an exposed electrical wire (which kills said knight, elicits a digitally altered WilhelmScream, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking causes the spokesman to think it's time for dinner]]), a booby trap placed by a window, a femme fatale, a ninja, and an assassin behind a door before having four bullets emptied into him by an offscreen gun that sweeps the screen from left to right. He doesn't realize he's been shot until the cup of Schweppes he just drank starts leaking out of his bullet holes.
** Also in LTK, Franz Sanchez' response after he kills Krest [[ExplosiveDecompression by locking him inside a decompression chamber]] with ([[AppleOfDiscord supposedly]]) stolen money. It's possible the only Film/JamesBond movie where the villain gets a better BondOneLiner than Bond himself:
-->'''Perez:''' What about the money, ''Patron''?
-->'''Sanchez:''' (''{{beat}}'') Launder it.
* The [[{{Mondo}} shockumentary]] ''Traces of Death'' has footage of a bear climbing a telephone pole, getting electrocuted, falling, then wrestling with animal control.
* ''Film/TheDictator'' certainly tries this. Sacha Baron Cohen's dictator, Aladeen's every line is horrifically offensive. In one scene, he is discussing dropping nuclear weapons on Israel - but he believes the weapons will behave like the bombs in ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes''. In another, he plays a Wii terrorism video game and plays a level where he shoots caricatures of Jews in Munich. His advisers call for him, so he agrees to come see them right after his current level. Cue the video game narrator saying, "Bonus level, Mass Grave," then cut to Cohen miming digging one with his Wii-mote controller. Aladeen is not the only character to engage in this kind of antics.
* Dusan Makavejev said that the point of ''Sweet Movie'' was to assault the viewer with a barrage of progressively more shocking images until they were finally reborn, like the characters in it.
* Said Creator/RogerEbert, about ''Film/ShootEmUp'':
-->"I may disapprove of a movie for going too far, and yet have a sneaky regard for a movie that goes much, much farther than merely too far."
** The quote was so appropriate, it spent a long period of time as the page quote for this trope.
* The scenes in ''Film/IronMan1'' where Tony kept smacking into things while testing his suit was funny in all the wrong ways. "10% thrust." ''Splat!''
** ''Film/IronMan2'':
*** The video footage of the Hammerdroid's test malfunction [[spoiler:(twisting around so fast it snaps the pilot's spine) evokes a ThatsGottaHurt gasp of sympathy from the audience. But Hammer's mealy-mouthed attempts to gloss over the failure by insisting that the pilot survived cross it back into a joke at his expense is quite funnier, as is his later statement that people are reluctant to volunteer to test them "for some reason."]]
*** Also, Tony's birthday party. "Iron Man, how do you go to the bathroom in that suit? ...just like that." Not funny. Giving an actual technobabble answer about filtration and being able to drink that? ''Now'' it's funny.
* You could argue the entire movie is this, but when you see the scene when Film/ForrestGump explains Lt. Dan was from a long military tradition, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9c8Rba5NVE and then you see a Death Montage of Gary Sinise (the actor playing Lt. Dan) playing a different ancestor just at the moment of his death, in a different battleground, with a war uniform more modern that the last]], you don't think that the movie is mocking those soldiers patriotism or sacrifice, but you see as questioning the intelligence and sanity of GloryHound Lt. Dan, whose desire to die in battle makes Forrest seem like a genius by comparison.
* Zazie dans la Metro somehow manages to turn a pedophile chasing a ten year old girl into something out of ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes''.
* The use of CountryMatters in ''Film/BeingJohnMalkovich'' is a textbook example. When the agent shakes hands with [[GrandTheftMe Craig-in-Malkovich's-body]] and says, "Sorry about the cunt at reception," it seems like an attempt to shock and feels a bit misjudged. It's with the immediate repetition, when he shakes Maxine's hand and says the same thing as if it's just part of the polite routine of introductions, that it becomes hilarious.
* ''Film/TheMummy1999''. [[BigBad Imhotep]] ''plucking out the eyes'' of [[RedShirt one of the American mercenaries the protagonists hired]]? [[NightmareFuel Horrific]]. Imhotep winding up with the guy's astigmatism? Hilarious!
* ''Film/TheJerk'': Navin Johnson, after becoming very wealthy from his Opti-Grab eyeglasses, is speaking with some developers thinking about building an apartment complex. Navin is onboard until they say they want to "keep the niggers out". Navin, who grew up in a black family, [[BerserkButton doesn't take kindly to this]], yelling [[PreAssKickingOneLiner "Sir, you are talking to a nigger!"]], and kicks everyone's ass.
* ''Film/FinalDestination'': [[GallowsHumor Death has a sense of humour like this, apparently.]] Racist dumb redneck planting a burning cross into a black guy's front lawn? That's not funny. Death disengages the handbrake to his truck, locks the front door, and sets the radio to play "Why Can't We Be Friends?", ruining his plan? That's pretty funny. Racist's leg gets caught on a hook and chain dragging behind the truck while he's trying to stop it, leaving him being dragged down the street by his truck while he's on fire, ''with the song still playing at higher volume''? That's absolutely hysterical!
%% * ''[[Film/{{Neighbors2014}} Neighbors]]'': Practically the whole movie.
* The Film/SixteenCandles scenes involing AsianAndNerdy Long Duk Dong are a mix of [[UnfortunateImplications "OMFG THAT'S SO FUCKING RACIST!"]] and [[Funny/SixteenCandles "OMFG I SHOULDN'T LAUGH BUT I CAN'T STOP!"]]. Specially one that involves a bike...
* Film/TropicThunder takes this trope and runs off with it. To put it on perspective: while there are a few instances of this, most of the time it's more [[RefugeInAudacity crossing the line and going on for about seventeen more miles, never looking back.]] And it wouldn't be half as funny and awesome as it is, if it wasn't made of this trope.
** In example? Read the blurb on Kirk Lazarus, played by Creator/RobertDowneyJr: ''"An immensely talented Australian method actor, Lazarus had a controversial "pigmentation alteration" surgery to darken his skin for his portrayal of the black character Sergeant Lincoln Osiris. Lazarus refuses to break character while filming and only speaks in his character's Black English."'' As a result Lazarus's lines would be horribly offensive, were he played by an actual black guy... but end up being hilarious '''because''' this wasn't the case.
* ''Film/{{Whiplash}}'': Many, many of Fletcher's interactions with his students can make for this. He'll often call out his students on a mistake, and then compound on this by making fun of the student for either their nervousness or for a specific aspect about them, be it weight or [[spoiler: their mother walking out on them]].
* ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService'':
** [[spoiler:The entire sequence where Merlin sets off everyone's chips making the heads of every single one of Valentine's soldiers and/or allies explode in a row, each in a stream of colourful fireworks, and all to the tune of Pomp and Circumstance.]]
** The entire church scene. A bunch of (terrible) people being forced to murder their friends and family against their will? Horrifying. Doing so the tune of Music/LynyrdSkynyrd's ''Free Bird''? You might just have this trope.
* [[Film/TheNuttyProfessor "You know Mike Douglas used to make me moist when I'd watch his show?"]]
