I'd like to see a group of tabletop role playing gamers, real ones, not the spastic, sniveling stereotypes, confront some menace and deal with it an intelligent, well planned fashion and defeat it.

I'd also love to see a bunch of D&D players torment and terrorize a group of cool, good looking people who had abused and harassed them for years.

I'm sensing some hostility here...straight up!
NERD LIFE HOMIE!

[LilCerberus]

Contaminated beans cause a group of hillbillies to be very unpleasant around...
...Right before they explode.

A group of b-movie lovers try to sit through the complete works of (Insert Lousy Director Here) until their heads start bursting open and their brains try to make a break for it.

Everyone suddenly notices the trees are staring at them.

The sound of movements in a man's intestines begins to form words & phrases, until satanic voices start coming out of his posterior.

A hungover college student wakes up to find he's wearing roller skates.

Night of the Living Busey
Fly-on-the-Wall documentary following Gary Busey on a drunken bender in Topeka, Kansas focusing nthe pain and anguish he causes to the denizens of a typical Middle American town. Meta-twist, Busey is the filmmaker and treats himself in the third person.


Red Blood, Blue Grass
A prize race horse becomes a vampire during the build-up to the Kentucky Derby. Writes itself.


Djinn Hunter
Islamic Van Helsing battles daemons in modern-day Iran


On a more serious note - I've long had a story idea based around a detective chasing a serial killer during the dying days of Nazi Germany. Basically hinging on the irony of investigating a handful of murders while thousands die all around due to combat, famine, political execution etc. Arguably more grim than scary but that's my two cents.

What if there were a movie about people's clothes turning against them?

Not in a "ha ha funny Trevor's underpants" way either.  I mean - what if men's ties suddenly started strangling them?  And ladies' blouses suddenly stuffed themselves down their throats and choked them?  I mean, we all have closets FULL of clothes . . . some we love to wear, some we don't.  But imagine ALL of them animated by some evil, malevolent force bent on destroying all humanity! Properly handled, that could be scary as HECK!!!

Indy- That's pure Platinum Cheese! I like it!

Let's see, how bout a robotic shark and robotic octopus goes around killing people. then there'll be a robotic whale and a robotic dolphin saving the day, but kills more people! PLATINUM CHEESE AT IT'S FINEST!!!!

I've always thought about something like that. You could even use Peter Benchley's "White Shark" as the basis for a decent screenplay. But, in reality electronics and water don't mix, then there's rust and the suspension of disbelief plus budget constraints won't cover it. I suppose there is always CGI.........

That actually reminds me of this old sketch comedy show The Edge.  Anyway, they had this bit: What ... is doing right this minute.  So, they had What Stephen King is doing right this minute.  He was trying to pitch a new book about killer oven mitts.

People would have to be nekkid!
That could be a good or bad thing...depending on the cast. I mean...who wants to see John Goodman nekkid? EWWW!

Those two actually show promise in a way.  If you have ever seen movies from islamic countries they tend to follow the same things that are popular here but culturally adapted.  Especially in alot of Turkish horror I have seen.
