13 Horrifically Misjudged Movie Taglines You Won't Believe They Actually Used

5. It Happened To Someone Who Knows Someone You Know. You're Next." - Urban Legend

Urban Legend This was obviously somebody's idea of a cool, catchy tagline that would rank up there with the likes of Jaws 2's now classic "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water," but failed to remember that taglines actually have to be good to end up in the public consciousness. So when Urban Legend came out in theatres, it was branded with this incomprehensible muddle of ill-judged wordplay. They didn't even settle for the mind-bending-ly awful (but better on its own) first sentence, and - for some reason - plopped "You're Next" on the end.
