Evil Dead 2 (1987)
Evil Dead 2 is far from the scariest movie on this list, but it damn sure is the funniest. Horror and comedy have a deep and intertwined history, and Evil Dead 2 is one of the shining beacons of that legacy. Essentially a remake and sequel to the original movie, it once again features Bruce Campbell in the role of Ash Williams, who takes a romantic trip to a cabin in the woods that gets disturbed by the forces of hell and evil trees. A bigger, better, more ridiculous, yet somehow more sensible movie, Evil Dead 2 skews more toward hilarity than outright scares, resulting in some big laughs while keeping things suitably weird. You ever blast a hole in the wall of a clearly haunted house, only for it to spew fountains of blood and then visibly mock and laugh at you? Well, Ash does in Evil Dead 2, and it’s as horrifying as it is hilarious. — Moises Taveras
