Retrailers or recut trailers have been a staple spoof concept for movie trailers over the last few years. With the popularity of YouTube and the 2-3 minute run time of movie trailers, it was only a matter of time before the happy mediums united to form a spoof love child known as the recut trailer.

Here are some favourites... watch each recut trailer to see how they've been re-imagined by fans. 

Mary Poppins Recut Trailer

What we thought was a harmless family classic about a spoonful of sugar is now a dark, haunting horror about a witch posing as a housekeeper to get at your children. Perfect tone, imaginative editing, excellent lighting and creative use of sound make this Mary Poppins 'Scary Mary'.

Top Gun Recut Trailer

Watch Top Gun Trailer (Recut)

Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer... are Maverick and Ice Man from that '80s classic Top Gun. Who can forget the flair, the Hot Shots rip-off and the seemingly normal Cruise back in the day? Well, there have been plenty of revelations since Top Gun first aired... and this recut trailer has a few more secrets to expose on what lies beneath all the macho action and fighter pilot fury. Surprisingly, a budding romance.

Mrs. Doubtfire Recut Trailer

Watch Mrs. Doubtfire Trailer (Recut)

Robin Williams brought the house down in Mrs. Doubtfire, a story about a father trying to reconnect with his children after being separated, by pretending to be a Scottish housekeeper. Now in this recut trailer, he could very well be the psychotic, cross-dressing stalker pedophile your parents warned you about... some excellent sound and video editing. If you thought Scary Mary was evil, think again. Imagine Mrs. Doubtfire and One Hour Photo were the same movie.

Shining Recut Trailer

Watch The Shining Trailer (Recut)

Stanley Kubrick's The Shining is regarded as the horror epic to rule them all... based on Stephen King's masterpiece, starring Jack Nicholson and weighing in with a two-and-a-half hour run time, the psychological horror at the Overlook Hotel will be remembered for ages. Not is all as it seems... especially when what you thought was a horror is now a heartwarming dramedy about family!? Excellent use of narration and great choice of music.

Office Space Recut Trailer

Watch Office Space Trailer (Recut)

Mike Judge's cult comedy smash hit Office Space will be remembered for its laid back approach to work, its satirical script and its heap of eccentric yet lovable characters, one being Milton. Although just how far do you have to push an office colleague for them to set fire to the building? What you thought was a cult comedy about getting one up on the boss is now a thriller about a crazy office worker on the rampage.

Charlie & The Chocolate Factory Recut Trailer

Watch Charlie & The Chocolate Factory Trailer (Recut)

Remember Charlie & The Chocolate Factory... no, the other one with Gene Wilder. Roald Dahl's tale has been read to many children over the years, but what if Willy Wonka wasn't a master chocolatier? What if he was a drug baron, luring people into his world of hallucinogenic drug experiences? Well, try this dark hallucinogenic thriller on for size.

Back to the Future Recut Trailer

Taxi Driver Recut Trailer

Watch Taxi Driver Trailer (Recut)

They say opposites attract, but there are plenty of reasons why a misogynistic, gun-toting taxi driver should not find love in the city. Robert De Niro stars in Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver... a harrowing spiral into psychotic violent crime or a Sex in the City-type romance about a down-on-his-luck guy trying to find his soul mate before his love meter runs out?

The Ring Recut Trailer

Watch The Ring Trailer (Recut)

Naomi Watts starred in the US remake, The Ring, a film that sparked a horror remake frenzy as the terrifying story of a little forgotten girl comes to life. Although, Watts has shown that she's no overnight success... she can act! Now, like you've never seen it before, The Ring comes full circle as a pensive, tear-jerking drama about coping with the impending loss of a loved one.

There's Something About Mary Recut Trailer

Watch There's Something About Mary Trailer (Recut)

Ben Stiller, Cameron Diaz... who can forget that no holds barred comedy classic from the Farrellys? Well, apparently whoever did this There's Something About Mary Recut Trailer. What you thought was a boy meets girl comedy about an old high school sweetheart is now a boy meets boy drama about missed opportunities. Nice editing job, but leaving Mary out of the picture completely would've probably worked better, along wiith a new title for the recut trailer.
