Nightmare on Elm st. as gnostic allegory on the consequences of recruiting modern day youth into sinister boiler rooms fueled by LSD, 4chan and GPU's.

Prelate Diogenes Shandor

Weird, almost unrelated/unrecognizable adaptations of famous stories:

*Adaptation of The Wizard of Oz into a gritty crime action-thriller. Out of necessity a group of sick people who are in need of organ transplants - possibly ex-soldiers who have been dicked around by the VA, some background with combat experience - get involved with an organ trafficking cartel whose leader promises to get them the organs they need if they assassinate one of his enemies (hence the background needing to involve combat experience because otherwise why not just use one of his regular mafia guys)

*During a hurricane, while the rest of the force is out responding to looting and emergencies, three rookie cops find the police station being beseiged by werewolves. This one's an adaptation of The Three Little Pigs

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. No sooner do we deem ourselves free from a particularly gross superstition, than we are confronted by some enemy to learning who would plunge us back into the darkness -H.P.Lovecraft


He who fights with monsters must take care lest he thereby become a monster -Nietzsche

Assorted ideas

*Fifty flavors of Gray, a keebler elf themed parody of Fifty Shades of Grey that will be written under the pen-name E.L.Fudge

*Parody of Ant Man where instead of having the power to shribk down to ant sized he only has the power to turn into a midget

*The reason why so many people can't eat gluten these days is because previously (but not anymore) there was a strong evolutionary pressure against gluten intolerance because anyone whose body couldn;t tolerate the eucharist was burned as a witch.

*Romantic movie based on the Armin Meiwes incident

*Skit where a suicidal person and the Grim Reaper are in that cliche scene where two people run towards each other through a field while romantic music plays

Some ideas:

*Sci-fi story where two things are true and have happened: Stable wormholesmcan be created and the parallell worlds solution to the grandfather paradox is true. As a result, since any wormhole will necessarily eventually result in a slight discontinuity in time, an interstellar wormhole network that exists in the setting actually leads through a maddeningly complex web of parallell universes

*A group of young people have to hire an old person to track down an estranged friend of theirs who they can't find because he doesn't have a Facebook account

"I am the living guacamole which came down from heaven..."

EDIT:
Another idea:

Sea level rise and depleted fisheries are signs and harbingers of the end of the Age of Pisces and the dawning of the Age of Aquarius

EDIT:
Another idea:

Expanded better version of the first idea in this post: An expanded version of "Don;t just eat a hamburger, eat the hell out of it" in which "BOB" explains that he is the living relish come down from heaven

Not sure if they did this one aleady... A version of Planet of the Apes in which humans war against apes enhanced with cool-looking neon accented cybernetics given to them by an advanced JHVH-1 'mothership' that they must worship unconditionally in return. Third act has apes and humans fight together against this controlling force.
just this

Two more ideas:

*The reason we never see the creatures' body in tentacle porn is because they're related to that species of octopus with a detachable penis-tentacle: http://www.iflscience.com/plants-and-animals/octopus-has-detachable-penis/

*Combination of the Mouse Utopia Experiment and the Fall of the Eldar

Rococo Modem Basilisk

After computing the cenusus, an unexpected conclusion -- about 10% of the population is gone, with no explanation.


I am not "full of hate" as if I were some passive container. I am a generator of hate, and my rage is a renewable resource, like sunshine.
