A list of the top rated 80's comedies based on the IMDB Top 100 80's Comedies list and some personal favorites.

The best movies from the best decade! Mostly comedies and some of these are actually so awful, they're great. All ones I can watch over and over again when I'm in the mood for some nostalgia.

All the comedies mentioned in the filmography of the book "Film Comedy" by Geoff King, published in 2002.

"From slapstick to satire and subtle innuendo. From the grotesque to the carefully mannered. From madcap anarchy to the darkly deadpan. Film comedy comes in a wide range of forms. For as long as film has existed as an entertainment medium, so has film comedy. ... Comedy was one of the most popular formats in the early years of cinema and has remained so ever since." (from the introduction to the book)

Missing: Edward Penishands (1991)
