Long as we’re listing horror movie ideas, here’s mine:
Sanewashing
Minor parody of modern politics. Begins as a creepy mysterious slasher movie about a man in a completely ridiculous clown costume slashing people up with little warning. A common theme is that no victims react as they should - frequently assuming they are amid a camera prank, or simply experiencing “sensory overload”.
While the movie follows one hero that is aghast and wants to explain the killings, other reactions are surprisingly mute - focused on mourning the deaths, not fearing any killer; and accepting the idea of a slasher in a clown costume as a stress induced hallucination.
Eventually, the hero is captured and the killer decides to give away the secret in a villain monologue: He’s just a serial killer who wanted to kill, but a random impulse made him decide on the clown costume - and it basically makes his existence stealthy, as though no one can acknowledge his very existence even when he barges in the front door.
