A movie that is advertised as a normal rom-com, only for the movie to turn into a horror halfway through.

I have this plan for when I become an eccentric billionaire. I want to hire the best writers, director, and A-list actors in hollywood to create a Steel Magnolias-esque tear jerker. Something that seems destined to sweep the Oscars. a 2 1/2 hour emotional tour de force by everyone involved. In the final scene, when the female lead is making amends with her dying father on his hospital bed, a werewolf kicks down the door and shoots them both with a tommy gun, completely ruining the film. Roll credits.

A werewolf wearing red/white/blue american flag cutoff shorts and sporting some overly reflective aviators. He yells out "cowabunga!" and starts spraying the place with bullets. When everyone is dead and with blood all over the walls, he pulls down the shades, looks at the camera, and says "that's all folks!" while giving a thumbs up. Roll credits.

edit: he needs to look at the camera. That makes it so much more serious.

Here's the thing: It's so outrageous that I'd bet the art house crowd would think it was an allegory or something. Oscar sweep. You can't win.

That seriously happened at the end of that movie with vampire Johnny Depp . It had a happy ending though, but the audience was so confused that this random person turned into a werewolf at the end and saved everyone...

Just call Tim Burton, he may be interested in another insanity. :P

Not a crazy idea, but a good one. And its been done before, quite well actually.

Check out Audition, directed by Takeshi Miike.

I told my then girlfriend that Hostel was National Lampoon's European Vacation III. She had no sense of humor.

Ive always wanted a movie that had a total A cast list, then kill them all off in the first 30 seconds of the movie and go on with the movie as normal

The guy who 'directed' it advertised it as a rom-com that turns into a thriller/horror 'film'.
