And a little silliness

Inbetween sessions of concentrated translating, I need a little levity. So entertain me.
Inspired by a Mark Kermode video blog on the silliness that the BBFC dealt in during the 1980s, particularly their fear of the word "chainsaw" in movie-titles, a little game sprang to mind:
Surely, any film that has the word "chainsaw" in the title will be much better than any film that doesn't. So improve some titles!
And, just because I feel like it, you can also do the same thing with music albums.

To start proceedings off, here are:

Megadeth - "Peace sells.... but who's buying chainsaws?"
Metallica - "Master of Chainsaw Puppets"
Nine Inch Nails - "Big man with a chainsaw gun"

"The incredible chainsaw Hulk"
"The sound of chainsaw music"
"Naked Chainsaw Lunch"

or just add either the word chain or saw if you're feeling clever?
