Famed producer and 20th Century Fox founder Darryl Zanuck once claimed that he could edit raw film footage into any genre he chose. Sounds far-fetched right?

Well, take a look at these edited movie trailers:

The Shining (http://ps260.com/molly/SHINING%20FINAL.mov): recut into the generic family movie "Shining".

Brokeback Mountain (http://ps260.com/molly/BROKEBACK%20WIP%2013.mov): remade as the Christian salvation epic "Mount Brokeback".

The Fast and the Furious (http://ps260.com/molly/FURIOUS%20FINAL.mov): recast as gay love story "The Fast and the Curious".

:D

There are more such parodies here (http://ps260.com/molly/), if you want to see the rest.

Incidently, when filming The Shining (which I had the fortune to see on the big screen last Friday :) ), Kubrick went to great lengths to shield the youngster who played Danny from the fact it was a horror movie.
And when you watch it with that in mind, you see that there's almost no scene in there with him in it that is in fact scary.
It's from the awesome editing, camera work and use of music that makes it frightening.

The re-editing of 'Big' is by far the best:
