I'm having a hard time with choosing a title for my short film.
It's currently titled "Incubus". I've since rewritten the script and the title no longer fits.

The film is essentially about a woman who repeats the same day over an over. (like groundhogs day... except not funny) It's a serious film.

I was thinking of "Yesterday is Today" but everything I come up with turns out sounding like a Liftime movie of the week. Does anyone have any suggestions?
 
Everything I come up with is to long.

The Good and Bad of Karma
The Acceptance of Destiny
Time Out of Sync
Missing in Time
Madness in Time
Time of Madness

She Keeps Doing the Same Thing Over and Over Again

Edit here: The popular definition of Incubus isn't the nightmare one, either.

Edit here pt.2: What's the short really about? Why does she keep doing the same things over and over again and what exactly DOES she do over and over again? If you can divulge that info, I'll take a real stab at it.

well aware of that fact. It's widely reffered to as a demon thats has sex with you while you sleep. Opposite of which is a succubus. However, that element is now gone and it's alot more straight forward.
 
The film is about Susan, a woman, who is stuck in a time loop. She must figure out a way to get herself out of this loop to return to normal life. The time loop is triggered the day she cheats on her husband with his best friend. More specifically the time loop begins after she is killed by her husband with is gun.

I've always been a fan of titles that leave a little to the imagination, and then make a little more sense after seeing the actual movie. IE: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind, Punch Drunk Love, Bubble, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest... I'm drawing a blank now, but you get the idea.

What about something to do with "Lucid"... as in lucid dreaming?

You might try spending some time at wikipedia browsing over terms, words, and phrases that relate to the general idea of the movie. This has worked for me and will lead you to some potential ideas.
