Nutcracker as a horror flick might be interesting.

I would like to see other material, organic stuff, that breaks that up and loosens up the feel of the material.
I think genre blending is great but I'm also on board with a horror film revolution! The problem I think with adding a lot of humor into a horror movie is that it lightens the mood too much. Unless you use creepy humor and then its not really accomplishing what you are talking about.

so for example give me two movies you'd mesh together.
