Does anyone have any favourites that come under this catagory?
-you know like the movies that end up in the comedy section at a video store but they were meant to be a drama or horror?
share your thoughts.

thats an awesome poem. Frankenstein? i am not sure but i just found it pretty campy and some of the 'horror' parts were really funny because of the cliche[yes i know frankenstein was written before all the zombie/monster B grade movies but i saw the movies before i read this book so bite me] but an awesome book anyway.

the Auzzie Bible - by i dont know who

meant to be serious, but tries to explain the bible in auzzie slang (eg, reffering to mary as a pretty good sheila) :D
Aww, I'm gonna go get myself a copy now!

TBH, I don't pay that much attention... If a book is funny to me, I'll think it was meant to be funny. Movies, on the other hand...
