Copyright trampling issues aside, trailer remixes are one of the more entertaining web trends to come along in a while. What’s a trailer remix? It’s where someone takes clips from a movie and edits them into a trailer format in such a way that the result is 180 degrees removed from the original movie’s personality.

So: Think of West Side Story as a zombie movie. Or The Shining as a feel-good family flick. Or Titanic as a Stephen King style thriller. Links to all three of these can be accessed here.

The latest remix to cross my desk is A Christmas Gory, which recasts the holiday classic based on the works of Jean Shepherd as a grisly horror flick.

Putting your eye out is the least of your worries, kid.
