Cool Videos: Get your maniacal laugh on with this supercut of movie giggles, guffaws, and chuckles

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Laughter is sometimes called the best medicine, but it can also be intensely creepy. The maniacal laugh is something that can either make you laugh or chill you to the bone depending on how it is delivered. With that in mind, check out this five minute supercut of laughter from throughout movie history.

Something you will notice when watching this collection of laughs is how many are from villainous characters as opposed to being from comedies. It is also worth noting that when taken in conjunction next to horror movie laughs, those from comedies seem a little creepier. But, I had a lot of fun trying to name every movie from this video. How many can you name?
