How about...

"Sweet Valley of the Dead High"?
"How Green Was My Valley of the Dead"?
"The Valley of the Dead so Low"?
"Valley of the Dolls of Death"?
"Over the Valley and Through the Woods to Grandmother's House of the Dead"?

"Valley of the Dolls of Death"?

I like that one.  Consider it stolen.  Public domain!  I claim that it was posted in the public domain!

I voted for Damnation Valley.  Why?  Who knows what the voice in my head where thinking about?  They're crazy.  But, if I were to offer up "alternatives" as the udders already have, I might be inclined to suggest these little nuggets:

"Death From Above The Valley Of The Gwangi" (or "Dolls" if that be yer inclination.)
"Through the Looking Glass of Death"
"Transitions Of Death In The Valley"
"Faces of The Valley In The Throws Of Death"
"Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Valleys"

Ahem.....moving on....

LOL , yes when I was discussing titles with a friend, "Dead Valley" did come up, and got nixed because it seemed to slide right into "Dead Valley High." Though as a Goosebumps volume, with the high school built on top of an ancient indian burial grounds, and undead indians bursting through the floor of the gym at the end to devour the jerkish jock-types, it did have potential.

It is a cool title but sounded a little close to Zelazny's "Damnation Alley" to me.

Ahem; that was actually why the voices choose it. They like Zelazny.  They also liked the movie.  But, hey, they're crazy, right?
