Supernatural Shenanigans
Maybe you're into the supernatural side of things. The vampires, werewolves, and ghosts are really fun! It's the contrast of the supernatural with everyday life.
Try Ghostbusters if you want something more mainstream. This movie blends comedy and paranormal investigation perfectly. Plus, who doesn't love busting ghosts?
For a more modern take, look at Wellington Paranormal. It's created by Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi. It is a spin-off show from What We Do in the Shadow and is following two police officers dealing with paranormal events.
Quirky Characters & Dark Humor
The characters in What We Do in the Shadows are so quirky. Nadja, Nandor, Laszlo, and Colin Robinson make the show a gem. Their interactions are what make the show memorable.
Looking for more quirky characters? Watch Flight of the Conchords. Two New Zealand musicians try to make it big in New York. This show is packed with hilarious songs and awkward situations.
Garth Marenghi's Darkplace is another gem. It's a parody of horror shows from the 80s. This series is so bad it's good, with intentionally awful special effects and over-the-top acting.
Improv and the Unexpected
A lot of What We Do in the Shadows feels improvised. This gives the show a natural and spontaneous feel. You never know what's going to happen next!
Consider Curb Your Enthusiasm if you appreciate improv-heavy comedy. Larry David navigates everyday life with hilarious social awkwardness. His reactions are priceless.
