10 WTF Ideas Turned Into Horror Movies

10. In Fabric

While looking at WTF horror ideas, there's bound to be a couple Killer *insert object here* movies. So, let's kick the list off with In Fabric, which revolves around a killer dress.

In Peter Strickland's fantasy thriller, several people come into contact with a beautiful red dress, causing each of them to be cursed. After purchasing the haunted garment, a bank teller develops a nasty rash and is attacked by dogs. When a repairman comes into possession of the dress, he's poisoned by carbon monoxide soon after, and when the frightful frock gets bored, it just floats around and strangles its victims.

Even though it sounds like a Goosebumps story, In Fabric plays out more like a giallo-inspired melodrama. It's a cautionary tale told in three parts, emphasising the dangers of salesmanship, consumerism, and capitalism.

But In Fabric also knows when to go balls-to-the-wall crazy. One moment, two characters are having an ordinary conversation, the next, there's a man hypnotising people with washing machine trivia or an elderly proprietor masturbating to a menstruating mannequin. 

Even though In Fabric's plot is bizarre, the film itself is more outlandish than anyone could imagine.
