The first Twilight - I don't even like it that much but it is an excellent comfort film.

Also, Volcano which is so terrible it's good. I'm hoping they make a sequel with Don Cheadle in Tommy Lees place.

I recently re watched Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and the Worlds end which also make quite good comfort films.

Teen DD loves The Truman Show and I know when she's had a rough day if she's watching that. Also Austin Powers is a big hit for her too which surprises me as she's very PC and it's very Not PC.
