It seems that lately some denizens of the Intarweb are using their video editing capabilities to redesign trailers from old movies, or make new ones, that recast the movie in a completely new genre. I knew about the [Shining trailer remix](http://www.stunned.org/weblog/archives/002149.html), which makes the movie look like a warm, fuzzy, rediscovering family sort of movie, and in [this thread, post 10](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=354260), I learned of the redone trailer for [West Side Story](http://www.alldumb.com/item/15976/), which is now a zombie movie. Both are absolutely hilarious. Does anyone know of any other good (or bad) examples of these?

It’s a story of a pedophile.

[Titanic](http://www.ps260.com/elfollador/Scary%20Titanic.mov) as a horror. Not as good as the others.

I know there’s “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fiiiiiire” which was very good, but I can’t find it.

These are hilarious! Now I really want to see “Se7en” the romantic comedy and George A. Romero’s “West Side Story”!

I found this: “A Christmas Story” as a slasher flick ([http://www.ebaumsworld.com/videos/cgory.html](http://www.ebaumsworld.com/videos/cgory.html)) and
