Gross out

Gross-out is described as a movement in art (often with comical connotations), which is intended to shock the viewer(s) and disgust the wider audience by presenting them with controversial material (such as toilet humor and fetishes) that might be ill received by a mainstream audience. CinemaFeaturesGross-out is a subgenre of comedy films in which the makers employ humor that is willfully "tasteless" or even downright disgusting. It usually involves gratuitous nudity, unrealistic aggressiveness towards property or Schadenfreude. The movies are generally aimed at young adults, aged between 18 and 24.

Noteworthy examples include the 1972 midnight movie classic Pink Flamingos (in which the central character eats dog excrement) and other films
