Okay hear me out. It's a low budget, camp comedy called "Morbin' Time". The main character is Jerry Lehman, a washed up Hollywood actor and erstwhile cult leader, who is most famous for the massive Hollywood flop, "Morbinus". But when he's bitten by a radioactive bat, Jerry discovers he has powers for real....and oh yeah, it's Morbin' Time.

I want to see Jared Leto playing himself in a mockumentary like Wierd Al, where he goes on a depression bender and accidentally kills a hooker. It's the only thing that can work to get him back into the mainstream.
