It is an unfortunate fact that every man who seeks to disseminate knowledge must contend not only against ignorance itself, but against false instruction as well.

Rococo Modem Basilisk

The story of a man who survives some traumatic event and lives to a ripe old age, seeing the atrocities he survived become increasingly trivialized and eventually become a tourist attraction (and being forced by circumstance to contribute to its trivialization). He ends up getting rich off bobblehead figurines of the lunatic cult leader who murdered his whole family in front of him in cold blood.

A horror movie that keeps reversing itself and escalating.

For example, a crazy cult that controls some backwater village kidnaps a group of travelers intending to sacrifice them to ensure a good harvest, but the last victim manages to escape and goes on a vengeful killing spree, slaughtering every person that they come across and also spitefully making a point of burning the village's crops. He chases some villagers all the way to an abandoned ghost town several miles away where they take refuge in an abandoned research lab or military base or something and are turned into zombies by some forgotten experiment. They kill their pursuer and turn him into a zombie as well, then wander off in search or more prey; some wander back to the backwater village, some wind up in the other populated areas, and in any case a major zombie outbreak begins. This eventually forces the government to nuke the entire area, which of course wakes up some sleeping kaiju.... (and so forth)
Hah, that is great!

An Englishman or other European is turned into a vampire but, due to a preexisting fondness for black pudding, is completely unaware of it until he takes a trip to the United States, where black pudding is hard to find.

For clarification he works the night shift so the sun isn't usually an issue either.

-Fantasy adventure centering on conflict of regular elves against dark elves. The customs, practices, and traditions of the regular elves gradually begin to bear a closer and closer and grimmer and grimmer resemblance to those of the Ku Klux Klan as the novel progresses.

-Animes like Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Beyblade deconstructed with an anime series where everyone in the world is bizarrely obsessed with Rock-Paper-Scissors, or Tic-Tac-Toe or something

Q. G. Pennyworth

An elite unite of time travelers are sent from the far future to talk with and potentially transport key cultural icons from the past who are psychologically capable of handling the shock. The future, you see, is in dire need of a fresh injection of humanity to go with its technological accomplishments.

All of the operatives are old women.

This one has been done, fortunately for all of us. However, I think it was intended as a deconstruction of the equally-puzzling genre of Mahjong manga.

How about a scientific vampire flick?

A scientist tries to bring her husband back from the dead. Needs a total blood transfusion and a dose of movie magic (perhaps medical nanobots which attach to red blood cells but eventually destroy them). The cadaver sits up, blinks, is insatiably hungry. Cannot produce his own blood, needs to feed on others. If he doesn't get blood, he will start to die again. Sunlight accelerates this process.

Eventually, the wife does not want to keep bringing him bodies, and he is forced to go out and seduce people on his own. He prowls through night clubs and truck stops, feeding off prostitutes and homeless people... eventually developing a taste for the blood of sophisticates.

At no point is the word vampire used.

An unsuspecting individual is arrested and brutally interrogated with questions about Georg Cantor for all eternity
An unsuspecting individual is imprisoned until he proves or disproves the generalized continuity conjecture. He is not given a keyboard capable of typing aleph.
After transcending both dualism and the limitations of his condition, our hero accepts the challenge and therefore narrowly escapes execution.  He then finds himself unable to start without first knowing how much time he has to complete the task.  This results in a total acute and chronic psychotic break.

Bitcoin gains sentience and starts to search for its creator, winding up in a legal battle with Satoshi Nakamoto for claiming it is him. The legal system gets incredibly confused trying to determine whether bitcoin has personhood and through that confusion realises that it, too, has sentience.

Bitcoin and the legal system marry and live happily ever after.
