As some of you know, when I'm procrastinating on writing I lollygag over at Twitter, trying get my creative juices flowing by being clever and insightful 140 characters at a time. And sometimes, if I'm lucky, I can spin my time-wasting into actual work by passing off my Tweets as redblog articles. Like today!
The Twitter game this afternoon was "dullest horror movies ever" and here be the fruits of my labors:
Drag Me to Counseling
Blood: The Last Papercut
Urban Legend: Pop Rocks
The Haunting of Hillshire Farms
Para-sailing Activity
The Call of Chipotle
Anaconda: The Digestion
Hush, Hush, Sweet Chocolate
The Masque of Red Buttons
I Worked With a Zombie
The Conqueror Ear-Worm
Little Shop of Snow Globes
The Picture of Dorian Gray's Cat
Necrocomiccon
In the Spleen of Madness
Werewolves of Des Moines
Sorority House Manicure
The Creature of the Green Gables
Tween Wolf
Zombie Fondue Party
The Abominable Mr. Pibb
The Cabinets of Amos Hochstedler
Flossed to Kill
The Sixth Scent
Rosemary Clooney's Baby
Dr. Terror's House of Pancakes
Let's hear your titles in the comments!
I don't know, Tween Wolf would be kinda horrifying.

Yeah, Spaz... it doesn't really work as a joke title because you KNOW it's in development somewhere deep in the bowels of Disney.

In the Spleen of Madness...*wipes away tear* Oh, Lovecraft would be proud!!!
Oh I'm sure my coworker and I can come up with something tomorrow. After all, we went through a pretty weak haunted house tonight and I'm sure on Friday we'll come up with lots of bad ideas/new titles for these films.

Sorry, Matthew -- I've been turning all my creative snark toward a Transformers 2 quiz I hope to have up tomorrow.
But Resident Weevil is a winnah!

and it works with the others in the franchise...
Resident Weevil: A Pile of Rocks
Resident Weevil: Extermination
My coworker laughed out loud at "The Meowing" last week.
