블랙 코미디(영어: black comedy, black humor, morbid humor, gallows humor) 또는 다크 코미디(영어: dark comedy, dark humor)는 블랙 유머나 갤로스 유머(위험을 눈앞에 두고 하는 풍자의 유머)를 이용한 코미디 작품이다.[1] 블랙 유머의 정의에는 논란이 있는데 블랙 유머가 갤로스 유머의 초기 개념과 일치한다는 주장이 있었기 때문이다.[2][3][4] 블랙 코미디 요소는 문학적 비평과 영화, 텔레비전 등에 쓰인다.

    The term [Black Humor] was part of the language before Freud wrote an essay on it -- 'gallows humour.' This is middle European humour, a response to hopeless situations. It's what a man says faced with a perfectly hopeless situation and he still manages to say something funny. Freud gives examples: A man being led out to be hanged at dawn says, 'Well, the day is certainly starting well.' It's generally called Jewish humour in this country. Actually it's humour from the peasants' revolt, the thirty years' war, and from the Napoleonic wars. It's small people being pushed this way and that way, enormous armies and plagues and so forth, and still hanging on in the face of hopelessness. Jewish jokes are middle European jokes. And the black humourists are gallows humourists, as they try to be funny in the face of situations which they see as just horrible.
