20 Hilariously Weird Alternate Movie Titles Used In Other Countries

Movie titles get people interested. The weird and funny movie titles are sometimes better than the movie itself. For instance, Battlefield Earth. Unfortunately, it was a little more boring than we’d all hoped. Frankly, I was excited to get into the mind of L. Ron Hubbard, but Going Clear helped me with that way more.

What’s in a name? Well, a lot, it seems.

Now that I’ve found what some of my favorite films were called overseas, I can never think of them the same way again. Some of these titles come off too literal. Others, seem flat-out bizarre. All of them are funny, however, and I hope you enjoy them.
