If you enjoyed the film’s unusual sense of humor presented in a reverent hidden camera manner, we’ve put together a selection of films that you might appreciate as well. The majority of these films, including ‘Bad Trip,’ are available on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hulu.
Bad Grandpa
‘Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa,’ often known as ‘Bad Grandpa,’ is a Jeff Tremaine-directed hidden camera comedy film that follows a grandfather and his grandson on an epic road journey full with hysterical misadventures. Through the many pranks and stunts that are a feature of the Jackass franchise, it creates a loosely linear storyline. It has a road trip theme and a hidden camera approach similar to ‘Bad Trip.’ Is there a finer best friend combo than a grandfather and his grandson? No, we don’t believe so.
Borat
‘Borat’ is likely the most well-known film in the hidden camera comedy subgenre, and it stands up to all of the buzz surrounding it. Larry Charles directed the film, which follows Sacha Baron Cohen’s titular character as he interviews real individuals across America for his documentary. To put it another way, ‘Borat’ is the iceberg of the hidden camera comedy genre, if ‘Bad Trip’ is the tip of the iceberg. The satirical humor in the film is also a step forward from the nearly absurdist humor in ‘Bad Trip.’ In the end, if you liked ‘Bad Trip,’ you should surely watch ‘Borat’ to see the hidden camera comedy genre at its best.
Dude, Where’s My Car?
‘Dude, Where’s My Car?’ is a stoner comedy film about Jesse and Chester, two best friends who lose Jesse’s car after getting stoned. The key protagonists’ tight friendship is a recurring theme in both this film and ‘Bad Trip.’ The narrative of both flicks revolves around a missing car, and it’s funny to watch Jesse and Chester fumble around town trying to track down their follies from the night before. It has developed cult status over time, making it a must-see for comedy enthusiasts.

Due Date
‘Due Date’ is a dark comedy film directed by Todd Phillips about Peter Highman, a prominent architect who is compelled to catch a ride from Atlanta to Los Angeles with wannabe actor Ethan Tremblay to be with his wife, Sarah, for the birth of their kid. Because both films involve a road journey packed with amusing mistakes, the film is similar to ‘Bad Trip.’ The ice and fire combo of Zach Galifianakis’ comic timing and Robert Downey Jr.’s captivating screen presence is simply too entertaining to pass up.
Impractical Jokers: The Movie
If you enjoyed the rib-tickling banter between two closest friends in ‘Bad Trip,’ you’ll love a quartet of close pals in ‘Impractical Jokers: The Movie,’ a hidden camera comedy film. Sal, Joe, Murr, and Q, the titular jokers, who are undoubtedly the most well-known faces associated with the genre on television, make their big-screen debut in this picture. The film is jam-packed with the jokers’ trademark impractical hijinks, but in a cinematic format. A road journey is included in the film, and the hidden camera format will remind you of ‘Bad Trip.’
Project X
‘Project X,’ directed by Nima Nourizadeh, is a comedic thriller about three teens, Thomas, Costa, and J.B, who intend to host a big party that will make them famous among their peers. Their scheme, however, goes tragically wrong. The found-footage format of the film can be compared to the hidden camera format of ‘Bad Trip.’ Furthermore, both films don’t mind occasionally blurring the boundary between comedy and profanity in order to keep the audience laughing.
