This months sub genre/category was chosen by Meredith from M. Carter at the Movies she is joined by three Bloggers she hand picked and our host Heather. So I can now hand you over to Meredith for the second Groovers & Mobsters Present:
Horace Walpole had an enduring observation about the world, calling it “a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.” Who says it can’t be both at once? Certainly not the writers, directors, producers and stars of films that fall into the grimace-with-laughter dark comedy genre. From the emotionally violent to the downright macabre, dark comedies buff a funny and acidic sheen on the devastating realities of everyday life. Click here to discover how the chosen movies accomplishes this. And check out the Bloggers who made it possible.

Definitely a diverse display of humor. Having them all lumped together really does kind of establish how eclectic each film is on it’s own. Dark Comedy, excellent choice by M. Carter.
