I wrote a draft for a project in our senior drama class last year. It was called "In The Evening" and was a collection of local myths and horror stories. It was quite macabre and our teacher wouldn't let us film it due to "'Ring'-like" imagary. The list basically broke down into the following:
1. A sort of goatman who roams creekbeds in a rural town
2. A freakish man who partakes in morbid activities in the woods ('Ring'-like images were in this one)
3. A Cessna plane crash in the 1980s whose occupants were never found
4. A farm whose new owners (a family) are stalked by a demon-like quadraped (also 'Ring'-like images; too much effort/money would have been required to make said creature, so it probably never would have made it in)
5. A group of youth discover concrete tunnels beneath a small town which seemingly have no end and contain disturbing signs of inhabitance (once again, 'Ring'-like images)
When I say local, I speak of a metroplex of a few towns and smaller cities in North Texas, some no larger than 1,500 people. Some of these stories do have a degree of truth to them: the second, which was woven from a man who actually did do some weird stuff in the woods behind his property; the third, which grew out of an actual Cessna crash (which the occupants survived); and the fifth, which came from actual steam tunnels under part of a town near my place of residence (they only stem a few blocks, maybe 300 yards at most) built after World War II.

...Just make your own superhero named like Joe Tylonal who will Fight Max Pain. Or you could do somthing like a movie based on your hobbies. Like my friend likes to skateboard but quit so we made a movie on why skateboarding is evil 
and stupid.
