Should a day come when Siri grows a conscience and goes Hal 9000 on [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/midnight-film) users, ‘Rooster Teeth’s Siri: The Horror Movie’ parody trailer gives a good idea of what might happen.

Siri: The Horror Movie is a slasher movie parody that revolves around [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prank-pack)’s popular software. The premise is that the A.I. software gets way too smart and decides to off the owners in an unsuspecting manner. One-by-one each of the characters are taken out, threatened and even killed by an app. What’s clever is that like most horror movies, the creators utilize a soundtrack as an intimidating factor and in this case, it’s Siri’s alert.

The Siri horror movie parody is a hilarious take on [old-school slasher flicks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/universal-studios-halloween-horror-nights) that ups the creep factor on Apple’s software.
