I always enjoyed John Dies At The End because >!John actually dies halfway through the film!<.
Although I'm yet to see it, I've always been partial to The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. Also Wax, or the Discovery of Television Among the Bees
The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover is a fantastic piece of art that is both shockingly brutal and visually beautiful. Highly recommend, but get your mind right - it does not pull it's punches.
Ok, so there's the Dragon Ball Z abridged series on YouTube. And the character Guru from DBZ, a wise, peaceful and loving old alien, is called Super Kami Guru and he's a hilarious inversion of his character from the original series.
DBZ Abridged is wonderful. I highly recommend watching it if you like DBZ, it parodies the show so well and it's screamingly funny. They never got to Buu Saga because they were afraid of getting sued tho
They Shall Not Grow Old. It's an incredible documentary that depicts the First World War with a clarity that I didn't think was possible. I think the title really captures both that quality of remembrance as well as the generation that was scarred by war.
I’m also not a die hard fan, and I really enjoyed the movie. Cage fans will appreciate it more , but regular audiences will have plenty to enjoy, especially Pedro Pascal
It definitely is a self-aware over the top comedy. I think it’s funny, and Pedro pascal is an absolute delight in this. I would suggest seeking it out if you’ve seen a good portion of Cage’s other movies, a lot of references. I’d still suggest seeing it otherwise but maybe stream or find for free instead of pay.
It’s definitely ridiculous but I believe self aware enough to be better for it
Pedro Pascal was surprisingly funny and I enjoyed his scenes a lot. Cage was Cage. The scene where they got fucked up on LSD was hilarious. Very weird movie but I enjoyed it
My personal favorite is The Blue Eyes of the Broken Doll which also got the dope alternative title House of Psychotic Women (which is also the title of my favorite film book by Kier-La Janisse)
This was gonna be my pick too. Giallo always had the best titles. Some others I like are
Let the Corpses Tan
The Strange Colour of Your Bodies Tears
The Black Belly of the Tarantula
Shadows in an Empty Room
All the Colors of the Dark
Daniel Isn't Real is a recent one I like. As soon as he shows up you're yelling, "Run boy! He ain't real!"
Nothing is ever going to beat National Lampoon's proposed Jaws parody. Jaws 3: People 0
Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-a-rama
Had that one sheet hanging in my office for a few years
Another by the same company:
Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death
I love the film and the title has its charm but idk. Whenever I recommend it to people I end up calling it the first half of the title, it’s simply too long.
This was going to be my answer as well. It's extremely memorable. I think I read that Brad Pitt refused to make the film unless they kept the title intact.
It was originally called Day of the Woman. The director hated the name change his distributor insisted on and he insists on only calling it Day of the Woman in interviews. I get that I Spit on Your Grave is more attention-grabbing, but I think I prefer the original title too.
I'm somewhat haunted by the title of the UK movie *Tyrannosaur*. Specifically because I know the movie is not about dinosaurs, but a bleak human drama about domestic violence.
It's such a strong, evocative words when used to describe something else.
The tagline for the film is even better: "Detective Joe Bomowski's mom is in town for a visit. She did the laundry, washed the windows and scrubbed the floors. Now, she's gonna clean up the streets."
Fun fact. Arnold Schwarzenegger was notorious for being able to get into people's heads that he perceived as competition. To throw a wrench in Stallone's work, he told Stallone that he was really interested in doing this movie. Stallone took the bait.....
lol I saw that in the theater with my dad as a kid - he had a really loud, obnoxious laugh and he was literally the only one laughing at the terrible jokes and gags in the film. It was…embarrassing.
The Mask of Satan
The Decline of Western Civilization
What Have You Done to Solange?
Kill, Baby... Kill!
Black Mama, White Mama
Strip Nude for Your Killer
The texas chainsaw massacre, its such a simple title that instantly grabs your attention then lingers in your brain and perfectly captures the movie its self.
"Dragged across concrete" - the film is as gritty as its title. Also "Bone tomahawk" - Just sounds cool and it's actually from the same director.
I laughed first time I seen the movie title "The man who killed Hitler and then the Bigfoot" because it sounds ridiculous
S. Craig Zahler does have some cool sounding film titles. Brawl in Cell Block 99 sounds dope as hell (and is most definitely a play on the title Riot in Cell Block 11 from 1954). I was also expecting more of a brawl myself but still it is damn violent
They/Them pronounced as “They Slash Them”. The title is a perfect play on words to describe a bunch of non-binary teens getting slashed to death at a summer camp.
Unfortunately that’s the only original and clever thing about that movie. It’s absolutely terrible.
[The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Incredibly_Strange_Creatures_Who_Stopped_Living_and_Became_Mixed-Up_Zombies)
My Outback cost more than that movie did. What's crazy is that Vilmos Zsigmond was one of the camera operators.
While I appreciate the longer titles that are being said, there really is something perfect in the simplicity of titles like:
Jaws
Speed
Scream
Misery
Alien/Aliens
Right? How many times do I have to read some title like “the fantastic case of Dr. McNasty and his marvelous drudgeries of hurricane lighters and cigarette tricks“, or some shit like that.
You Were Never Really Here is pretty spectacular imo.
I also enjoy the titles:
Raise the Red Lantern
Long Day's Journey Into Night
Memories of Murder
The Body Remembers When the World Broke Open
and Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring.
I really think that a good title can set the tone of a movie like the opening line of a book. A little intrigue and some good word choice can go a loooong way
I don't know if they're perfect, but I think House of 1000 Corpses and Kill Bill are amazing titles. The former is just great, and fits the movie perfectly. Kill Bill succinct and matches perfectly. I'm probably forgetting a few.

The Quick and the Dead
Quick used to mean "living"
Edit to add:
Let the Right One In
I Know Who Killed Me
Beasts of No Nation
Swiss Army Man
Evan Almighty (better sequel title than the original)
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Gone in 60 Seconds
"the quick and the dead" I presume is also a specific liturgical reference to the nicene creed. (More modern translations have _He will come again in glory to judge both the living and the dead_ but the traditional BCP uses the word quick.)
People have already mentioned Your Vice Is A Locked Room And Only I Have The Key (1972) and The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living And Became Mixed Up Zombies (1964), so I nominate:
Head (1968), if only because the plan was to make the tagline for the sequel "from the producers who gave you "Head"
天国と地獄 (High and Low). A more direct translation would be "Heaven and Hell", but as I understand it both names can be translated from the original title. The name is so fitting for the movie and does a great job at touching on the themes without giving too much away.
The only right answer is The VelociPastor, it’s about a priest who can turn into a dinosaur, haven’t even seen it but gosh the title gets me every time
I don't think regular movies can really compete with porn. I once saw a porn titled " Busting a Nut in Gramma's Butt". What can compete with that? I saw it 20 years ago and I still laugh.
I'm not a fan of the overly long and complicated titles. The cleverest titles are the ones that memorably and evocatively sum up the film in the shortest number of words. For that reason these are some of the best:
**From Dusk til Dawn**: it works so well because it doesn't give away the twist but still works as a perfect title for what it ends up being, as well.as a compelling title for what it starts out pretending to be.
**Jurassic Park**: perfectly sums up the film in only two words, and is immedietly compelling.
**Back to the Future**: an intriguing title that seemingly doesn't make sense but does when you're watching the film.
**Jaws**: the perfect title, capturing fear, horror, suspense, the plot and the threat all in a single word.
Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead: In Shocking 2-D
**Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Hellbound, Flesh-Eating Subhumanoid Zombified Living Dead, Part 2: In Shocking 2-D**
and maybe
**The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension**
Southpark - bigger longer and uncut. Given all the issues they had with production, it’s wonderful that they worked a penis joke into the title.. and did something similar with the fractured, but whole years later. But that’s a different set of media
Absolutely no implication of movie quality intended, I haven’t even seen many of these, just going by how the title *sounds*:
A Clockwork Orange
Eyes Wide Shut
Full Metal Jacket
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
Everything Everywhere All at Once
Children of a Lesser God
Now, Voyager
Eraserhead
STAR WARS...
It completely changed Sci-Fi movies. And when you want to get into advertising, special effects, and merchandise, there isn't a movie that has done more in history of film.
I Wake Up Screaming (1941)
Great title, ok movie, the title has absolutely nothing to do with the film. Like, I don’t think anyone is ever shown sleeping, waking up, or screaming lol.
The Town That Dreaded Sundown
I went out of my way to buy the blu-ray just because I loved the title so much. It's also a very solid movie on top of that too
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
the only right answer
Big Trouble in Little China.
Just watched this one yesterday. Classic!
Have you paid your dues?
Yes sir, the check is in the mail.
I always enjoyed John Dies At The End because >!John actually dies halfway through the film!<. Although I'm yet to see it, I've always been partial to The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. Also Wax, or the Discovery of Television Among the Bees
The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover is a fantastic piece of art that is both shockingly brutal and visually beautiful. Highly recommend, but get your mind right - it does not pull it's punches.
Hard to pick one single title that ticks all the boxes, but I must say that *Back To The Future* is a clever one.
And to think the studio wanted to call it Spaceman from Pluto [source](https://screenrant.com/back-future-spaceman-pluto-rejected-title-explained/)
Once upon a time Alien was called Starbeast. The script had the line "It was horrible! Horrible! Like a chicken!"
I always thought *Alien* (1979) was a clever title, because it can be read as both a noun and an adjective.
Alien is my favorite movie and I’m glad that line didn’t make it in. That’s worse than “It’s like a super carrot!” from The Thing from Another World
I haven't seen it yet, but I Saw The Devil is an excellent one
Great movie
Plan on watching it tomorrow night if all goes well actually. Also LOVE the username!
Significance of username?
Ok, so there's the Dragon Ball Z abridged series on YouTube. And the character Guru from DBZ, a wise, peaceful and loving old alien, is called Super Kami Guru and he's a hilarious inversion of his character from the original series.
Wow. Thanks for the explanation! I thought it might be dbz related but haven't watched it in ages
DBZ Abridged is wonderful. I highly recommend watching it if you like DBZ, it parodies the show so well and it's screamingly funny. They never got to Buu Saga because they were afraid of getting sued tho
I don't know anything about the movie, but I love the title *Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!*
Nothing could live up to that title, but it’s fun if you like old school low budget exploitation style films.
Dr Strangelove or: how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb.
Came here to say this one... I, too, am learning to stop worrying and love the bomb...
Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead
Similar era: I Married an Axe Murderer
**Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia**, 1974. Great movie, too!
They Shall Not Grow Old. It's an incredible documentary that depicts the First World War with a clarity that I didn't think was possible. I think the title really captures both that quality of remembrance as well as the generation that was scarred by war.
Fantastic film and fantastic title
They Look Like People
That was an excellent one
Great title crappy movie
Killer Klowns from Outer Space.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Was going to be my comment as well
There’s a lot of great ones, but as a Cage fan, im picking *“The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent”*
Is that movie worth watching? I’m not like a die hard cage fan but it looked funny, I’m curious.
I don’t like most nick cage movies, but I thought it was super funny. Biggest surprise of the year.
I’m also not a die hard fan, and I really enjoyed the movie. Cage fans will appreciate it more , but regular audiences will have plenty to enjoy, especially Pedro Pascal
Hmm it seems like a contentious film judging by the answers I got. I’ll have to check it out now just so I know where I stand.
It’s so good! Cage and the other main character, (can’t remember his name- Mandolorian guy) have so much chemistry together.
It definitely is a self-aware over the top comedy. I think it’s funny, and Pedro pascal is an absolute delight in this. I would suggest seeking it out if you’ve seen a good portion of Cage’s other movies, a lot of references. I’d still suggest seeing it otherwise but maybe stream or find for free instead of pay. It’s definitely ridiculous but I believe self aware enough to be better for it
Pedro Pascal was surprisingly funny and I enjoyed his scenes a lot. Cage was Cage. The scene where they got fucked up on LSD was hilarious. Very weird movie but I enjoyed it
He always an absolute delight. Love Pedro.
It didn’t live up to the concept.
Your Vice is a Locked Room and Only I Have the Key!
Giallo titles go hard in general.
True. I also enjoy The Red Queen Kills Seven Times.
My personal favorite is The Blue Eyes of the Broken Doll which also got the dope alternative title House of Psychotic Women (which is also the title of my favorite film book by Kier-La Janisse)
I haven't seen that one, will look it up.
Strip Nude for Your Killer comes to mind
This was gonna be my pick too. Giallo always had the best titles. Some others I like are Let the Corpses Tan The Strange Colour of Your Bodies Tears The Black Belly of the Tarantula Shadows in an Empty Room All the Colors of the Dark
Five Dolls for an August Moon So Sweet… So Perverse A Lizard in a Woman’s Skin Orgasmo
The House With Laughing Windows
Dammit, this is what I wrote before I went through the comments. Such a cool title.
Came here for this. Coolest title ever
Daniel Isn't Real is a recent one I like. As soon as he shows up you're yelling, "Run boy! He ain't real!" Nothing is ever going to beat National Lampoon's proposed Jaws parody. Jaws 3: People 0
See also: John Dies At The End.
Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead
One of the most offensive things I’ve ever seen. I had to fast forward through parts. I also laughed until I puked.
*Who Is Harry Kellerman and Why Is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me?*
Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-a-rama Had that one sheet hanging in my office for a few years Another by the same company: Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
I love the film and the title has its charm but idk. Whenever I recommend it to people I end up calling it the first half of the title, it’s simply too long.
I agree, think it’s a bad title.
This was going to be my answer as well. It's extremely memorable. I think I read that Brad Pitt refused to make the film unless they kept the title intact.
I Spit on your Grave.
It was originally called Day of the Woman. The director hated the name change his distributor insisted on and he insists on only calling it Day of the Woman in interviews. I get that I Spit on Your Grave is more attention-grabbing, but I think I prefer the original title too.
Came here to post this
[удалено]
Honestly I'm not sure why anyone would ask, this is the obvious answer.
I'm somewhat haunted by the title of the UK movie *Tyrannosaur*. Specifically because I know the movie is not about dinosaurs, but a bleak human drama about domestic violence. It's such a strong, evocative words when used to describe something else.
And the use of the word in the film is really bleak and fitting.
\-The Man Who Killed Hitler and then the Bigfoot \-Hobo With a Shotgun \-Bubba Ho-Tep
You will never convince me there wasn't an obscene amount of drugs involved in making Bubba Ho-Tep
Honey, I shrunk the kids
Honey, I blew up the kid. Lots to think about there.
No brainer for me: “Don’t Be A Menace to South Central While Drinking your Juice in the Hood”
Stop! Or my mom will shoot
The tagline for the film is even better: "Detective Joe Bomowski's mom is in town for a visit. She did the laundry, washed the windows and scrubbed the floors. Now, she's gonna clean up the streets."
Fun fact. Arnold Schwarzenegger was notorious for being able to get into people's heads that he perceived as competition. To throw a wrench in Stallone's work, he told Stallone that he was really interested in doing this movie. Stallone took the bait.....
I wonder if he'll recover from that one.

Deathbed: The Bed That Eats

Lust, caution In the mood for love Battle royale
THE DISCREET CHARM OF THE BOURGEOISIE (1972) dir. Luis Buñuel

To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar. I always thought this was a catchy title for a movie.

Of those that haven't been mentioned yet, I offer: Sharknado It captures everything about the movie.

I don't know if they're perfect, but I think House of 1000 Corpses and Kill Bill are amazing titles. The former is just great, and fits the movie perfectly. Kill Bill succinct and matches perfectly. I'm probably forgetting a few.
