    Thanks, I needed that chuckle!

  2. Clumpy Says:

    Not to mention “Eraser-Head of the Scouting Program. Gayle Ruzicka crawls out of his radiator. . . ugh!

  3. Clumpy Says:

    Shoulda had a close quote after “Program”.

  4. ClobberGirl Says:

    “Rosemary’s Baby, Which is Her Fourth, and She’s Only 23?

    Win.

    You’re just going to give those Halestorm folks ideas, Eric.

  6. Savvy Veteran Says:

    “Heck Raiser” and “Interview with the Bishop” were shamefully all I could think of after about 20 minutes (and yes, I had to Google “horror movie titles” first to get some material).

  7. Amp Says:

    The sequel to “I Know What You Did Last Summer, and I’m Telling Your Bishop” could be “I know What You Did Last Summer at EFY”.

  8. Cascade Rick Says:

    “Fried Green Jello”
    And in honor of the wife of the fattest guy in the ward: “Bride of Chunky” .

  9. Devino Says:

    “Scary Meeting” When the meeting never ends….

  10. Reba Says:

    Funny! I’ve been reading your stuff since 1997 when I was at BYU. Thanks for having this website!

    I’d go see “The Carthage Chainsaw Massacre” (the “shocking true story of how Joseph Smith really died”) or, perhaps a better bet would be, “The Mountain Meadows Chainsaw Massacre.” (Or did they already do that one and call it “September Dawn?”) And since the world already has “Alien: Resurrection,” how about “Alien: Sanctification,” and the inevitable sequel “Alien: Justification.” Also, I don’t want to blacken my brethren (and sisteren) by painting with a broad brush, but I’ve met one or two Saints/immigration hawks who’d probably go see “The Mexorcist.” Also …

    “The Brothers” (Not as satisfying as if “The Others” had actually been called “The Otheren.”)
    “What Lies Beneath Cumoah” (“He thought he was digging up the gold plates. He thought Moroni was an ‘angel.’ But young Joseph Smith is about to find out … “)
    “Village of the Dammed” (Anyone else even been irked by a missionary companion employing that usage?)

  12. Cody Says:

    Poop. “Anyone else EVER been …” is what I meant to say, of course.

  13. Ampersand Says:

    My friends and I came up with “Friday the 31st” way back in our freshman year at the Y. We should have copyrighted it when we had the chance.

  14. Christina D Says:

    I love it! :D

    My mom had four babies by the time she was 23…. is that bad? :P

  15. Latter-Day Sustainablist Says:

    Maybe to obvious?: “Nightmare on North Temple”

    or better yet,

    “Nightmare on State Street”

  16. Billy Bob Thorton Says:

    28 days later (and pregnant again)
    28 weeks later (and now I’m a grandparent)

  17. Jenn Says:

    How about “Children of th Cheerios” ?

    Yeah…..I don’t have too much!!

  18. Eric D. Snider Says:

    … and yet you posted anyway.

  19. chelsie Says:

    These are all pretty hilarious, but really I thought ” The Carthage Chainsaw Massacre” went a little too far.

  20. DJ Says:

    As a member of the “Excommunicated”,
    I couldn’t help but chuckle – hee hee . . .

    (Oh, the things I miss!)
