Genre-crossover nightmares

[AdamLeisemann]

What mixed-genre premises would you find disturbing? Here's an example:

"Mel Brooks and Akira Kurosawa collaborating on one movie." (Mixing Ninja Hero with extreme doses of comedy)

Let's see what ideas you can come up with?

Edit: This was just something that came to me totally at random.

How about Call of Cthulhu by Andrew Lloyd Webber?

how about mixing movie titles/genres to come up with a very different movie?

This is Spinal Taps
Rocky Horror Picture Showboat
BrigaDune
Dirty Harry and the Hendersons
When Dirty Harry Met Sally
The Empire Strikes Back to the Future
Jumping Jack Flash Gordon or for real fun Jumping Jack Flesh Gordon
Run Silent Run Deep Throat
The Prince of Crimson Tides
Mother, Jugs, and Speed 2

or how about different authors writing well known books
Tom Clancy writing Harry Potter

if I go digging somewhere I have the list of nearly 500 mixed movie titles that the folks on alt.callahans put together

[Cancer]

Deep Space Nine To Five
The Longest Day of the Dead
(The first isn't a movie title but) Helm's Deep Throat
The Ugly American Graffiti
Jesus Christ Superstarsky and Hutch

EDIT: another one...

The Sixth Sense and Sensibility

EDIT^2: and another...

Annabelle's Death Wish

ENDIT^3: one more before I make myself think about something else...
Fast Times at Ridgemont High Plains Drifter

[BobGreenwade]

Oh, that sort of thing I've been doing for years.

The Godfather of La Mancha
My Fair Matrix
The Road to Oz (think Hope & Crosby, with Don Knotts as the lion)
CATS on a Hot Tin Roof
Phantom Menace of the Opera

[shadowcat1313]

Free Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang the Drum Slowly
In the Line of Firestarter
Black Sunday in the Park
Liquid Sky Captain and the World of Tommorow
Indiana Jones and the Magic Flute
Red Dawn of the Dead
The Serpent and the Rainbow Connection
Animal House on Haunted Hill

Free Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

I always thought Willy Wonka's chocolate factory was a good place to stage a horror game. Wonka has always been so creepy, like Micheal Jackson after he decided to be white.

And why stop at movies for cross-genre HERO gaming possibilities?

Hamster Horror HERO

Maybe even make some bad puns too.

Moral Kombat (every 20 years, Ministers around the world gather to beat the living ba-Jesus out of each other. I know, long ****ing way to go for a joke.)

Yeah, "The Return of the Native" was a nightmare starting out. Not even ninja-pirates could save that story.
