Comedy horror will often use satire on horror clichés as its main source of humour or take a story in a different perspective, such as "The Cabin in the Woods" and "Drag Me to Hell".

Final Flesh Final Flesh is a 2009 American independent surreal comedy film directed by Ike Sanders, written by Vernon Chatman, and produced by PFFR. The film was made by sending the most deliberately absurd and ridiculous scripts to four different companies that specialize in making custom fetish pornography and having the porn actors act out the scripts, which contain copious nudity, but no actual sex. "Final Flesh" tells a very loose story involving a family who live near ground zero, where a nuclear bomb is scheduled to hit. The film is composed almost entirely of non sequiturs, intentionally designed to be as random and nonsensical as possible.
