The "laugh track" has a long and storied history of letting morons know when to laugh. But when paired with the wrong footage, the use of a laugh track becomes highly inappropriate.

To prove this asinine point, we here at Screen Junkies went ahead and added laugh tracks to five inappropriate films. We hope you like it, because it's the first of 47 installments.  Enjoy.

Crash

Racism + Laugh Track = Inappropriate

The Deer Hunter

Russian Roulette can be funny, but not when the players are coerced. Inappropriate!

Mask

Admit it! You've laughed at Mask before. You haven't, huh?  Me neither.

Saving Private Ryan

As far as a Tom Hanks' film goes, at least it might be a little funnier than Philadelphia or Joe Versus the Volcano. Still. Inappropriate!

Diary of a Mad Black Woman

If there is one film on this list at which you should absolutely not laugh, this is it.
