    Gross-out comedies don’t win Oscars but they do have a rich tradition in film…that is to say they make lots of money.

In the 1980s, films in the genre included

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: I think perhaps the modern trend of one-color posters with hand-drawn (possibly computer drawn) images may have gne overboard. This style is most present in documentary posters which have included those for King
