https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slapstick_film      (if you go to this link, there's a list of slapstick movies as well)
(From Wikipedia):
Slapstick films are comedy films where physical comedy that includes pratfalls, tripping, falling, practical jokes, mistakes, are highlighted over dialogue, plot and character development.[1] The physical comedy in these films contains a cartoonish style of violence that is predominantly harmless and goofy in tone.

    Super Troopers gets a 9.  It gets funnier the more you watch it and should reach 10 for me soon.

    I've only seen parts of that movie, need to watch the whole thing! Found it on Amazon prime, so I will rate it this weekend, F Me. Hope you don't mind if we skip this movie for now.

    A 8.5  Overall has some weak parts but Bill Murray is just great so it gets a great score.
    (No worries on skipping it, perhaps was too obscure.)

    Is this screw-bally enough?  Perhaps you can put a definition in the op?
