You are the coolest dad, ever. Very nice.
Anyhow, my favorite tag-line of all time is probably from The Abominable Dr. Phibes: "Love means never having to say you're ugly." Followed closely by the tag line for Deliverance: this is the weekend they didn't play golf.
Other goodies:
The Thing (remake): Man is the warmest place to hide.
Killer Klowns from Outer Space: In space, no one can eat ice cream.
Off the horror - changing lanes' tag line always stuck in my mind as being superficially amusing (one wrong turn deserves another).
Not really re: tag lines, but has anyone else noticed that, whoever is in charge of AMC's "MonsterFest" really, really knows their horror movies? First, they are picking really fine films, many of them NOT of the well-known or cultish variety (I was particularly impressed with their resurection of Funhouse). Second, the ads are picking up exactly the right lines from the movies to showcase. For Armies of Darkness, they got both "boomstick" and "groovey," and I think they also got in "gimme some sugar, baby," which was so funny that the first time I saw it I nearly peed my pants.
