The ultimate Dumb Charades guide: A complete list of insane movie titles to impress your friends.

Dumb Charades is a game we all have played & have been constantly hunting for some refreshing titles to win it the next time. I have always stayed in a league (obviously because of my madness for Movies) while playing it & have had a personal list which declares my supremacy. The dull parties, the boring midnight sessions with relatives and the beer/vodka/whisky hangouts with dear friends can easily be converted into madness-gigs with this game. Trust me, our film-makers have been genuinely creative while composing Titles for some of the films. Some are insane, some are unbelievable, some are quirky while some are totally hilarious. But they are worthy enough to make the game interesting & not monotonous. I am sharing my personal list with some real “Crazy” titles which are going to baffle you but don’t you wanna win the next time? Well, with a little bit of creativity & enacting, I am sure this list is going to be useful the next time you want to impress your pals/relatives. Here you go!
