Number 10: “Ted (2012)” Our list kicks off with the irreverent “Ted,” a movie that unapologetically embraces its inappropriate charm. Mark Wahlberg’s John Bennett finds his childhood wish fulfilled when his teddy bear, Ted, comes to life. However, this isn’t your average cuddly companion; Ted is a wise-cracking, pot-smoking troublemaker. The film’s humor is rude, offensive, and downright abrasive, sparing no one from its ridicule. If you’re in the mood for nonsensical adult humor, “Ted” secures its spot in the top 10.
Number 9: “Bridesmaids” (2011) In 2011, “Bridesmaids” shocked audiences with its brazen dirty humor and touchy jokes. Opening with a three-minute-long erotic scene, the movie signals a no-holds-barred approach. The bridesmaids, led by Lilian and Annie, embark on a drug and alcohol-fueled adventure that raised eyebrows upon release. Despite initial offense, the film achieved monumental success, solidifying its place as a fan favorite.
Number 8: “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” Kevin Smith takes us on a wild ride with “Zack and Miri,” featuring Elizabeth Banks and Seth Rogen. The plot revolves around two poverty-stricken roommates turned amateur filmmakers. As they navigate the adult film industry, the film blends offensive humor with a sweetly naughty touch. Unfiltered and dirty, it stands as an entertaining yet edgy romantic comedy.
Number 7: “Blazing Saddles” (1974) In 1974, “Blazing Saddles” shook Hollywood with its over-the-top jab at racism. Set in the Wild West, the film introduces Black Bart, the first African-American sheriff of Rock Ridge. While the movie includes blatant racist remarks, it cleverly uses humor to shed light on the harsh realities faced by African-Americans, creating a unique and controversial masterpiece.
Number 6: “American Pie” (1999) The inaugural film in the “American Pie” franchise, released in 1999, explores the comedic chaos of losing virginity. Unlike many edgy comedies, “American Pie” manages to balance vulgarity with restraint, steering clear of gratuitous content. Despite its bold approach, the film influenced a generation, challenging cinematic norms and earning a lasting place in the raunchy comedy subgenre.
Number 5: “The Dictator” Sacha Baron Cohen takes center stage with “The Dictator,” portraying General Aladeen on a mission to the United States. While the plot might not be the main attraction, the film thrives on offensive jokes and very dirty humor. Cohen fearlessly pushes boundaries, delivering risky jokes and satirical jabs that sparked petitions for bans in various regions. Nevertheless, “The Dictator” achieved remarkable success as one of Hollywood’s edgiest comedies.
Number 4: “Police Academy” Series Admit it or not, we all secretly love the chaotic and idiotic charm of the “Police Academy” films. These movies, born in the ’80s, embody slapstick comedy at its finest. While they treat women as mere sex symbols and poke fun at police incompetence, they have retained their legacy as successful films in the genre.
Number 3: “There’s Something About Mary” (1998) The ’90s witnessed a comedic resurgence, and “There’s Something About Mary” stood at the forefront. The Farrelly brothers, post-“Dumb and Dumber,” crafted a raunchy, gross-out rom-com that defied conventional romantic comedy norms. Cameron Diaz’s iconic spiky hair moment remains etched in ’90s comedy history, and the film ranks among the highest-grossing romantic comedies.
Number 2: “Porky’s” (1981) Famously regarded as one of the most problematic films of the ’80s, “Porky’s” pushed boundaries with its gratuitous crassness and exploitative comedy. Following four high schoolers on a quest to lose their virginity, the film, with its explicit content and undertones of racism and sexism, has aged poorly. Despite its success, “Porky’s” remains a controversial entry on many watchlists.
Number 1: “Borat” (2006) Securing the top spot is “Borat,” a mockumentary exploring the absurdities of American life. Sacha Baron Cohen’s offensive and politically incorrect humor stirred controversy, resulting in calls for bans. However, the undeniable comedic brilliance of “Borat” resonated with many, making it a cult favorite. Its juvenile, repulsive nature places it at the pinnacle of our raunchy comedy list.
As our laughter-filled journey through the top 10 raunchiest R-rated comedies concludes, we’re left with a profound appreciation for the genre’s ability to provoke, entertain, and challenge societal norms. Comedy, in all its forms, remains a potent force in storytelling.
