10 Underrated Horror Comedy Movies

1. Ghoulies

Burying The Ex
Empire Pictures

Okay, so Ghoulies is admittedly the oldest film on this list, and it wasn't until the franchise's third entry that the eponymous prank-happy monsters attended college and introduced cinema to the talents of one Matthew Lillard in the process.

But the original instalment of this uneven series is an underrated supernatural Gremlins rip-off which was sillier, scarier, and more anarchic than its more famous inspiration, taking advantage of its (theoretically) more mature audience to serve up a bloodier and more memorably spooky riff on the concept of little monsters unleashed on unsuspecting teens.

The earliest and greatest Gremlins knock off, this strange haunted house/ monster movie mash up stands the test of time on its own merits too.
