(Scary) Mary Poppins
Best Bit In The Trailer: The part where Mary's descending from the sky with the aid of an umbrella.
There's something undeniably disturbing in the steady inevitability of her arrival. She appears, eerily, from the distance, gradually gliding closer, her figure unchanging.
Whoever thought that up, given the right platform, could have been a horror genius.
Best Scene If It Was A Movie: The "Spoonful of Sugar" scene, where Mary uses her telekinetic powers to tidy the children's bedroom.
Later that night, the crank on the jack-in-the-box keeps turning.
The tune is "Stay Awake", and it's Mary's voice the children can hear, humming the tune.
When the jack finally pops out of his box, a whole load of blood sprays out, too, covering the kids, who scream their little eyes out.
It's very cool.

The Home Alone and Doubtfire ones were very good! You should do a feature (if you haven't already!) of the reverse where horror films are made into comedy trailers...the finest probably being the Wicker Man remake. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_mW8mBzmHo
