i will find links when im sober :rat-salute:
Two comedic movies I'd really like to do and think everyone would have a blast with are Kung Pow: Enter the Fist and Freddy Got Fingered (Two of the funniest movies I've ever seen, for different reasons).
I have them both downloaded and can provide them to you guys on Google Drive or somethin' if need be.
Fun fact - Freddy Got Fingered is insanely popular with child abuse survivors, to the point there are academic papers on that relationship.
Anyway thirding that.
Seconding Freddy Got Fingered, it's very different but is hilarious in a meta sense.
A Boy and His Dog (1975), sci-fi cult classic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dll9QSl1gxU
Synopsis: "A post-apocalyptic tale based on a novella by Harlan Ellison. A boy communicates telepathically with his dog as they scavenge for food and sex, and they stumble into an underground society where the old society is preserved. The daughter of one of the leaders of the community seduces and lures him below, where the citizens have become unable to reproduce because of being underground so long. They use him for impregnation purposes, and then plan to be rid of him."
No more dune unless it's some art school project nobody has ever heard of.
Angel's Egg (1985), maybe the first surrealist anime movie, directed by Mamoru Oshii of Ghost in the Shell fame.

Sergei Eisenstein's Alexander Nevsky (1938), the definitive Soviet propaganda film of the Stalin era, featuring a medieval not-Stalin owning the fuck out of an army of medieval not-Nazis. Also features a highly-acclaimed score from Sergei Prokofiev.
Full movie is on Youtube with subtitles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpVtoUFKZ7w
We've already watched The Battleship Potemkin and this would make a great follow-up.
Peter Jackson's Dead Alive (1992), a thoroughly ridiculous (and gory) horror-comedy from his pre-LOTR days:

Werner Herzog's Nosferatu (1979), his highly-acclaimed remake of the ersatz-Dracula silent film. Featuring Klaus Kinski as Orlok/Dracula.

Klaus Kinski
spoiler
(sexually) abused his daughter over a decade and was also overreaching towards other people with lesser power than him.
It also is very likely that Herzog was aware of some parts of this and did little to stop it over their collaborative career
Top Gun, from the top
Fight Club
Borat. umm I need some good ideas
