9. The "Corpse" Comedy
This is a genre that I can't help but have a sadistic soft spot for. While
Weekend at Bernie's is definitely the most notable of the sub-genre, there have been a few other lesser gems in recent years, such as 2005's passable
Drop Dead Sexy or the criminally under-seen
Burke and Hare, directed by genre saint John Landis. If there's a premise more suited to Quentin's devilish sense of humor, please name it. Whatever the conceit of the movie would be, as long as it has a dead body being horribly mistreated for the sake of laughs, I'm sure Tarantino could whip up a suitable story around it. And really, the multiplex just needs another dose of dead people comedy. Do you really want
Very Bad Things to be one of the last statements of the sub-genre? Hell, I'd even love to see Quentin
remake Weekend at Bernie's if it meant Harvey Keitel got to be in the titular role and it was treated as a true black comedy.
