I kinda hate that I initially read that as “Rosemary’s Baby 5.”
SgtWadeyWilson
If Rosemary has 5 babies, and they’re all evil enough for seperate horror films, why am I phrasing this like a word problem?

The answer is 42!

I want to say the mice wouldn’t like that question, but…

What do you get when you multiply Rosemary by five babies?

Is that the crossover with the critically acclaimed Baby Geniuses film series?
Doctor_Who
Rosemary’s Baby was never THAT horrific.
JustCheetoDust
I like how the original Baby Geniuses gets 2% on Rotten Tomatoes, and the sequel manages to lower that bar.
-Sentinel-
At one point there was even an IMDb page for a prospective THIRD movie. Thankfully the project was aborted, like the babies should have been.
JustCheetoDust
I can only imagine how they beat the 0% RT score that the second one managed. Do they screen the new film at Cannes or TIFF in the hopes that a citywide riot erupts?
Ok, real talk. Has anyone actually had a “naked in public” dream? They’re like the immediate cliche’ nightmare to go to and yet I’ve never once had a nightmare about that.Hell, even if I DID have a dream where I was naked it probably wouldn’t be a big deal
One time I dreamed that there was a T-Rex who really wanted to be a businessman. There was a lot of rampaging through Tokyo, but he achieved his dream in the end!
(Being a businessman involved everyone having suits and briefcases in a penthouse office, readying themselves for a meeting with high-powered Japanese businessmen and one businesswoman. One businessman’s briefcase had his children’s drawings in it instead of his papers, whoops, and another had a picture of the T-Rex with crosshairs on it and the word TARGET. The T-Rex said, ‘hum hum, hum hum, good progress!!” and was ever so pleased.)
Leorale
oh! oh! also there was the one in which senior citizens had a whole coordinated synchronized dance involving their assistive devices (walkers and wheelchairs) as the music played, “I, wanna walk and roll all ni-i-ight, and party every day.”
Apparently my brain really prioritizes this sort of thing.
For some reason the no-pants dream liked to escalate into me running around the 2nd floor of a mall around the food court, and somehow running through the railing (maybe it disappeared? I dunno) and desperately trying to turn around mid-air before falling to floor below as I woke up.
I’ve had dreams where I realize I’m dreaming because I’m wearing the clothes I like to sleep in (t-shirt and oversized basketball shorts – very comfy!). I imagine that if I slept naked, I’d probably be naked in my dreams a lot.
I had one once, when I was in about third grade. I dreamed that I was in school naked, and the other kids were like, “John, why aren’t you wearing any clothes?” and I was all, “Well, I’m having one of those naked-in-school dreams,” and they were all, “Oh, that explains it.” And then it kind of stopped being a thing, like stuff does in dreams when it stops being relevant.
My nightmares are about having to talk to strangers.
In the one such dream I remember having, I was only slightly embarrassed because I was preoccupied with being slightly worried that I may have failed an exam, and also being pleased with myself for engaging in social interaction. So, kind of the opposite of Sarah??
I’ve had in-my-boxers dreams once or twice. Though, like most dream-releated stuff in media, the dreams are nothing like what they’re “supposed” to be like. Never dreamed about finding myself in class or anything.
I rarely remember my dreams in any detail. But I do recall numerous times I’ve dreamed of realizing I am at work in the office, but forgot to dress. So I say, yes, they do happen.
I did once have a dream of biking to school while naked. But you’re right, that dream doesn’t seem that common.
Much more common (for everyone, I think) is the dream where you’re sitting an exam you weren’t expecting, or must hand in a written assignment you had forgotten about.
Or you need to get to a class and don’t know where or even what subject it is. Or it’s the end of term and you suddenly remember a class you signed up for but never attended, but NEED in order to graduate.
Yeah, I have a lot of “It’s finals day and I haven’t been to a single class all semester and I don’t even know what the classes even are” dreams. I wake up so exhausted after that much panic. And the last class I had irl was five and a half years ago now.
I had a nightmare once when I was like ten that would disgust and/or terrify (mainly disgust) most grown adults. Not even kidding. If I tried to describe it here, I would probably get banned or thrown in jail or something.
But that was only the one time. My only recurring nightmares are the sleep paralysis one, where you feel like you’re awake but it’s like you only have enough energy to squirm around a bit, and one where I’m running around in high school, late, unable to find the class I’m supposed to be in.
The sleep paralysis dreams aren’t scary, just exhausting and really boring. I seem to get one every time I fall asleep in the sunlight.
The other nightmare probably comes from the fact that I DID spend a lot of time running around my high schools, late, trying to find the class I was supposed to be in.
Nudity isn’t usually a concern to me even in life, but if it crops up in any form of nightmare I tend to have… other concerns. I don’t often have nightmares anymore.
Taking the cliche further, nakedness is supposed to represent feeling vulnerable, and people’s reaction or lack thereof is supposed to indicate how comfortable you are with that vulnerability. Your mileage may vary, obviously.
If you ever have a single dream that combines public nudity, the test you didn’t prepare for, driving from the back of a car, and the one where your teeth fall out, probably seek a therapist immediately.
miz
omg…I have the “driving from the backseat” dream all the time but I’ve NEVER heard anyone else mention it before now. Is it a thing???
I’d heard of it being one of the common ones people have, though I don’t recall where.
I’ve had it a few times. As a kid I remember it starting where there was someone driving and I just started in the back, but I would suddenly find myself alone in the car, and would have to desperately try to keep it from crashing.
In later instances, I was usually driving at first, and it just became harder and harder to reach the wheel until I was basically in the back.
miz
Mine usually start in the middle of the drive and I’m already in the backseat, swerving down a dark road unable to control my speed. Sometimes I’m on the wrong side of the road too, or driving in reverse. But for some reason I’m never worried or scared or anything; just super exasperated at how inefficient the whole thing is.
I have had one naked in public dream. In the 5th grade, I dreamt that I was in class (which was being held in the hallway in a circle) and nobody seemed to care or notice that I was naked so I just accepted it and felt slightly uncomfortable. Then I had to go and stop my cat from getting run over in the parking lot (still naked), and that’s when I felt very uncomfortable. Not uncomfortable enough to let my cat die though.
I had a naked in public dream at least once. Just naked and meeting people, doing things… nakedly. It was much more comfortable than waking life would suggest.
I sleep naked, so I get the naked in public dream all the time, almost as often as I get the running at high speed without effort dream while I kick the sheets into the next room.
I used to have a recurring dream, small details changed, where I was standing in front of my locker in the school hall. I removed my coat, I was wearing only my slip (back in days when we had a strict dress code in public schools), my shirt or sweater, shoes. No skirt, or sometimes no dress.
I usually thought to myself in dream, this is ridiculous, I’d never leave home half dressed. Then I’d wake up.
I seem to recall a dream where I was naked from the waist down while holding a sermon. Most pulpit are waist high, so I’m not sure if that counts as a “naked in public” dream…
Not I. My nightmares usually involve being chased by something, and not being able to stand up and run but only scramble along the ground on all fours. I have no idea what that says about me.

Once or twice. It’s not as common as the media suggests it is, but it’s happened to me on occasion.
One time I dreamed I went to Hogwarts naked. That was a weird night.

Nope. Mostly just the horrifying recurring nightmares and wierd surreal stuff like dying, but when I become a ghost, it’s the ghost of a Transformer.
