Write a tagline...

You're hired to give a promotional tagline of a dozen words or fewer to any film a producer throws on your desk. No, you can't rip off the original tagline.

I throw you a movie, you tagline it and then throw one to somebody else. Feel free to comment as well, because just playing ping-pong gets old.

I throw you... The Shining.

I thought that kind of sucked as I submitted it, and then I looked up the originals:

[list:29242u9t][*:29242u9t]A Futuristic Vision Perfected [2007 Final Cut][/*:m:29242u9t]
[*:29242u9t]Man Has Made His Match... Now It's His Problem[/*:m:29242u9t]
[*:29242u9t]A chilling, bold, mesmerizing, futuristic detective thriller.[/*:m:29242u9t]
[*:29242u9t]The original cut of the futuristic adventure. [Director's Cut][/*:m:29242u9t]
[*:29242u9t]The star of "RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK" and the director of "ALIEN" take you on a spectacular journey to the savage world of the year 2019!![/*:m:29242u9t][/list:u:29242u9t]

Suddenly all my confidence came back.

And holy crap! 2019! It's only five years until Darryl Hannah is able to crush my head like a balloon between her thighs. Maybe replicants are already here? Maybe they're everywhere!!
