I recently stumbled upon an entire sub-genre of YouTube clips where people take a considerable amount of time and effort to re-cut movies into trailers, completely changing the tone of the films. Some of them are terrible. Some of them are pretty amazing.
I've linked a few of my favorites below.
Shining
The Shining as a family rom-com, appropriately re-named Shining.
"Meet Jack Torrance. He's a writer looking for inspiration." Classic. Love the use of Solsbury Hill.
Had this actually been made, God save the children. [there's also a great David Lynch's Dirty Dancing clip, if you've got the time]
Glen & Gary & Glen & Ross
And finally, my personal favorite, David Mamet's Glengarry Glen Ross as a film dealing with tourettes syndrome (not much of a stretch there).
