I guess that’s what I get for going out to eat. Unfortunatly, I don’t know what “Be afraid, be very afraid” is from… **Scary Movie** maybe? ---

It’s not **Scary Movie** , at least not originally. Since that was a spoof they probably used it in there somewhere. Looking for the original. ---

“Be afreaid, be very afraid” is from the Jeff Goldblum remake of The Fly. Next tagline: “A different set of jaws.” ---

I think that’s right, but I am going to sleep. If so **TheNewbie** can take my next go 'round to make up if he responds quickly enough. ---

I think that’s from one of the star trek movies, but I have **NO** idea which one. Maybe that’ll help someone else get it… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-guess-the-movie-by-its-tagline/85993.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/game-guess-the-movie-by-its-tagline/85993.md?page=3)
