Title: New ideas for horror movies named after holidays
Post by: The Burgomaster on November 20, 2003, 03:58:01 PM
It seems as though there has been a horror movie named after just about every holiday (or pseudo-holiday):  HALLOWEEN, APRIL FOOLS DAY, BLACK CHRISTMAS, MY BLOODY VALENTINE, MOTHERS DAY, NEW YEARS EVIL, etc.

But how about these potential movies and suggested tag-lines?

*  FLAG DAY - "Pledge allegiance . . . before it's too late."

*  ST. PATRICK'S DAY - "Corned beef and carnage."

*  EASTER SUNDAY - "Little Tommy found all the eggs . . . except ONE."

*  SUPERBOWL SUNDAY - "The pre-game show is about to end."

*  ARBOR DAY - "Beware, the trees."

*  DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME - "For God's sake, CHANGE THE CLOCKS!"

*  COLUMBUS DAY - "Pray for Tuesday."

Anyone care to add a few more?

Yesterday, Nov. 19 was National Ammo Day . . .

Labor Day would work for Rosemary's Baby or Damien.

Memorial Day:  Dead soldiers don't fade away. . . they come back for more.

We were discussing this today ( A friend and I) and we were using Kung-Fu movies as our starting point. We spent a bit of time just on Hannaka (spelled wrong).

Path of the Dradle

Enter the Yamaka

and such others.

Ash Wednesday - "Don't ask where it comes from."

Day of the Dead (Mexican) - "Pray the skeletons are fake."

Labor Day - "Some jobs are murder."

President's Day - "Don't go to the sale!"

Thanksgiving - "You're on THEIR menu."

Yes, and after all conventional weapons fail and the turkeys are attacking the last building still standing, the hero grabs the fire hose and begins spraying the turkeys, who all look up and drown themselves. :)

Ok, I know that's just a myth, but it would make the perfect ending. Then during the credits there would be scenes of the entire town sitting around a giant roast turkey.

Why could I imagine the line's in that movie being as cheesy as "Let's beat the stuffing out of them!"

Of course one character would have to tell another "Don't get your feathers ruffled."

Ouch and ouch.

Now I've got that line from WKRP going through my head:
"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly."

What's the deal with people scouring the archives for year old posts to bring them back to life?
