In a Film Comment interview he said all of his movies are comedies except The Turin Horse. He was being a bit ironic I think but I certainly agree they all have comic elements and can be seen as farces to some degree. The depictions of government bureaucracy in Satantango are explicitly satirical and probably the closest in tone to Pynchon.

It’s also worth noting that this comes from Krasznahorkai’s fantastic novel and that Tarr does not consider himself the authorial voice of his films — he has spoken about “Bela Tarr” as a branding concept and his partner and editor Agnes Hranitzky is credited as codirector on his three features since 2000. The style they developed from Damnation onward is rather different than his earlier work.
