Jun 30, 2009 This movie is a short film seen on HBO in either 2003 or 2004. The film is about a young couple out for drink possibly in NYC in a hip secretive coctail lounge located down a small side ally. Once inside for drinks, the woman order a coctail and the man order a beer only they didn't serve beer. The waitress suggested a drink and he had one. His girlfriend left the table to use the bathroom, but she was in there for a long time. At one point the man thought she was in there with another man, but it turns out it was in fact the waitress. The boyfriend tried banging on the door but someone else was in there instead. I am not sure if he was daydreaming or what during this sequence, but he definitely knew his girlfriend had cheated on him.
Jun 30, 2009 I seen this animated movie about Greek Mythology back in the 1980's. I'm not sure if it was made in the 80's though. I think the movie is about the 7 Deadly Sin's but I'm not sure. I don't think there is any talking in it, just music in the background. The movie also has diffrent stories to it, each story is about different sin's (I think, I'm not sure). Each story has the same character (a young boy) playing different roles but is the lead role in each story. I think it starts out with the boy hiding behind bushes or weeds watching a goddes shower under a waterfall, she is also naked (I remember that part so clearly because I was so shocked to see someone naked in a cartoon cause I was only 4 or 5 years old), anyway a couple of fairies wrap her up in a towel when she is done then the towel turns into a dress. She notices him spying on her then she gets mad and turns him into a deer. Then all of a sudden he is being chased by hunters and dogs through the forest. He is running for his life then all of a sudden his antlers get stuck in tree branches and he can't escape, then it shows the dogs about to attack him when it cuts to a different story. One of the stories has the word ENVY in it. I just remember a little part of the other stories, one is a girl turns into a snake because she is jealouse of another girl because the girl likes the young boy. And there is a Greek God with wings on his shoes that makes him fly.

Jun 29, 2009 I'm looking for the title of an 80's sci fi film, mid to lower budget, where the majority of the main chacters died at the end. It took place on a spaceship/outer space. There were some okay alien prosthetics and the usual rag tag group of rebels fighting an alien menace storyline.
Jun 29, 2009 I remember a movie that I watched back in the 80's about a teenage boy that is in love with a woman and runs away with her to get married. I think she is already married, and he gets the idea from either his brother or friend who is doing the same thing. Possibly a comedy, and when she asks what they are doing, he says "we're eloping". I want to say that it is around the time frame of Brighton Beach Memoirs, but I don't remember the cast.
Jun 29, 2009 Many years ago (probably in the early 80's) we were watching a movie on TV, one very later Staurday night, which was about the Continental Congress and what it took to get to the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The film, we believe, was 2 hours long. Could have been longer, just not sure, but know it was at least 2 hours. It was just a very information and moving film that showed all of the trials and tribulations that those men went through to get it drafted and signed. We used to think that one of the main characters in the film was Robert England (Freddie Kriger) but when I have searched his film credits I don't see anything that looks like it could be this film. We are desperate to find this film and see if a VHS or DVD copy can be obtained.
Jun 28, 2009 I just remember that there was a boy and his single mother. i think they lived in france, or some place in europe, and they were pretty poor. The boy was a teenager, and he rode his bike everywhere. Then his mother got very sick. and i just remember this boy always talking to this woman in a window, a couple stories up. He would sit on the sidewalk and talk to this woman, who would talk to him out the window. I think it was a women's correctional facility. She would give him advice, and they would just talk. This movie was in color, and i saw it MAYBE in 2003-2004.
Jun 27, 2009 this Film was made in the 1990's it is about a young girl(between the ages of 8 and 11) The girl receives a Aztec Doll from an old Mexican woman (i can't remember the woman was a relative or not)but after receiving the doll the young girl begins to do strange things like in one scene of the movie she made a spiraling card house tower and in another scene she is taken to a therapist and left in the room when they come back the girl has camouflaged her self in brown paint and hides by a tree but she opens her eyes and is caught. Near the end of the movie the girl and her mother are in a forest in a spiraling tower made of wood similar to the one the girl made out of cards.it was on TV.
Jun 25, 2009 The movie I am looking for, I had seen on satelite in late 80's early 90's. I remember young girls being sent to live with families, not sure if they were to be the help. one girl ends up with a family, where the wife could not have children. the husband decides the girl will be a surroget. the scene where the baby is conceived is very graphic, the husband has the wife sit in their bed with the girl sitting between her legs, then he proceeds to have sex with the girl leaning against his wife.
Jun 25, 2009 I remember watching a movie on showtime or cinemax around the late 80's early 90's. A woman has an affair in the restroom of a restaurant, and later has sex with a guy while he is pouring milk on her breasts, The man later kills her lover while they sleep and she begs him not to kill her, so they have sex while the dead lover is on the floor, so they later bury the man in the backyard.
Jun 24, 2009 Trying to find a sci-fi movie between late 80's to the early 2000's. It's about a spaceship that works for a big corporation. Their job is to haul trash. Most of the crew sleep in life support systems, there is usually only two people awake at a time. Two men are the crew in the beginning, they find a piece of "space junk". Later it is revealed to be a satellite from earth that has been missing for a long time. But it has been altered, whenever someone steps close to it they are sprayed. They find out they are being infected with something. They start to lose their minds and destroy the ship and try to destroy each other. A man and woman wake from life support on the ship and get infected. It is policy that a man and a woman on the same crew cannot engage in a relationship, but they do any way. The movie closes with the man and woman spending the rest of the time they have left together in the control room.
Jun 23, 2009 I saw this movie on TV in the late 70's or early 80's. It's about some sort of hard labor compound/cult in the California desert or the southwest. There's an authoritarian leader and one member of each family is always held hostage by the leader (and his thugs) so that the other family members won't try to escape. I'm pretty sure there were implications of rape too. Oocassionally, the prisoners are allowed into town to purchase small items. For the most part, they never try to escape because they don't want their family member being held hostage harmed. But finally, someone escapes, there's a rebellion, and everyone escapes. it was deeply disturbing and freaked me out.
Jun 21, 2009 I watched this movie between 2007 and 2009 it was on Hbo/Cinemax or another premium channel it was late so i guess it was an after dark movie or late night it was in color. the movie seemed to have taken place in america outside of a major city the sky I think was purple or hade a tint but i was after i guess a war with nuke i guess it was about surivores they lived in caves they were i think the second generation there parents had set up a new religion were the precher would have sex with one of the girls every so often the kids eventualy wanted to escape they went into the city and passed out somewere when they woke up they were in a room that seamed like a penthouse in a hotel with a wall of tv and a mini bar there were 2 teens there that were not part of the group there was one man and one women they were lovers the man wanted the group to go swiming in a pool with no close on the 2 seemed to be swingers and were telling the group to have sex.
Jun 21, 2009 Movie is from 90'-98' ,it is a story about a mother who searches for her abducted daughter.Main villain is a man who as i remmember is a leader of some sort of cult/sect.Movie is very dark and has one of those unpleasent feelings.Main thing about this movie,is that in the end actually we find out that girl is totaly under the influence of the villain and that she hates her mother,we dont know this till the very end when if i can remmember mothers kills villain and then I AM SURE OF THIS THIS IS HOW I REMEMBER THIS MOVIE,her daughter ask her "mom do you love me " an she replies "yes i love you",then daughter say either "great then this will hurth" or something like "well i hate you" and after that she commits suicide with some sick smile on her face,like she wanted to cause her mother so much pain.
Jun 21, 2009 I saw this film on our local foreign TV channel last year. It was in Chinese (English subtitles - possibly from Hong Kong or Taiwan). It is a romance of a young couple, beginning from when they meet on a school outing as children (different schools on an outing to the same place). They have an instant liking for each other, and swap phone numbers. The rest of the movie deals with them growing up and trying to find each other again, often missing each other only by a few seconds. Sometimes they are even in the same crowd - they don't know it but the audience does. During the last half of the movie they are actualy living next door to each other in the same apartment block but don't know it and are still searching for each other. They find each other in the last scene of the movie when an earthquake brings down the walls between the 2 apartments.
Jun 14, 2009 i watched this movie in the 90's and it seem alil older than that, i would rent it all the time. its about these 2 kids im pretty sure 1 was a girl they was playin with a ball i think and it gets lost and they go into like another world or somethin and i think it had an cartoon frog in it but they went and had these like wine glasses that a witch or magical queen was and had a bunch of lil girls with her that were all magical like. i cant seem to fig this one out its been buggin me for years. oh and i think the girl in the movie was brown headed.
Jun 13, 2009 I saw this movie in the late 90s maybe 1999-2000 it was a sequel to the first movie which was about a man who one night started killing teens at night in there school,the sequel was about the girl who survived and went to an island where it was something like a nun school and there was a nun who started killing girls, because when she was young she had a child and other nuns made her kill it or( I don`t remember) they killed the child them selfs! Also the nun was in the wheelchair!
Jun 10, 2009 Most probably between 1983 and 1986. The movie was american made. The actress was a blonde and the lead male actor had brown hair and I believe wore glasses. What I do remember about it is that there was a guy who made a bet with his friends that he could kiss/ or get a date with this beautiful blonde woman who I believe was a model or someone famous. They ended up falling in love and then she found out about the bet. She sang a song in the movie that I can not get out of my head. Part of the lyrics are: And now there is no reason to cry and now there are no reasons to hide. I believ she was inthe bathoom when she was singing this.
Jun 8, 2009 I originally thought that this rememberance of a particular scene was from the movie Sybil, but it isn't. I am looking for a film that involves some sort of "crazy" young woman. I remember the woman rubbing raw meat all over the walls of her kitchen in some sort of fit.and it seems as if they (the people who are trying to help her) discover the rotting meat in her kitchen. It isn't a horror film, and I think the woman may have been a college student - for some reason, I think the movie is about this girl trying to live a normal college life, but she has these deep-seeded psychological issues. It reminds me of Sybil with Sally Field, but I'm about 99.999% sure it isn't Sybil.
Jun 8, 2009 Saw this in about 1960, 1962, when I was about 5 or 6, on TV in Australia.Not sure if a movie or something shorter.Remembered images:- boy discovers a lovely garden (assume green, but remember, it was B&W!)- garden is walled with high brick or stone walls- when he leaves this garden, because it is some distance from his house, he draws arrows in chalk on the footpath, fences & posts pointing back to the garden- later (next day? next week?) he tries to find the garden again using his chalked arrows- but some other kid (I remember it as a girl?) has seen one of his arrows & not knowing what it meant, had drawn dozens of arrows pointing every-which-way - she looks up at him as though she's pleased with herself- saddened, he knows he has suffered a great loss- years later, when the boy is older or grown up (?I think?) he recognizes the wall in his travels around the city- he rushes to the gate, swings it open, steps through - to plummet to his death, since the garden was now a building site & was being excavated.
Jun 7, 2009 Color movie pre 1997 (I worked at a video store when I rented it) Sci Fi/fantasy genre possibly a cult classic about a young man who escapes a fall out shelter to find a baren earth, most living people are underground mutants. Specific scene involves a extremely obese woman used as incubator for multiple children. possibly an intro with an escalator but I might be mixin up movies (not a boy and his dog!).
Jun 4, 2009 My memory is sketchy because I haven't seen this movie since I was 12 or 13 (mid-80s, 1987 to narrow it down) probably so here's what I can remember. The main actor (and I could swear his last name is Keach but not James or Stacy) is handicapped. IIRC, he had an arm and possibly a leg amputated. The movie was maybe set in a European country. There was a woman/girl who had her own problems (possibly mental) and she latched on to the handicapped guy. I think they eventually ended up in a romantic relationship even though he tried to push her away because of his physical disabilities. I can remember him walking around using a crutch and her following him. I watched this movie several times because it was on Showtime a lot back then. The movie was probably made in the late 70s, early 80s. (sounds like a Viet Nam "Coming Home" flic - me)
Jun 1, 2009 I'm trying to find the name of a short movie, that broadcast on either Showtime or Cinemax. It played around midnight on new years eve 1997 or 98. A couple, who somehow had a male visitor for dinner, who made subtle passes at each of them during dinner. Later after everyone went to sleep, the husband got out of bed and went to the visitors bedroom, a short time later, the wife did the same. The male visitor who was behind the bedroom door.embraced the couple and I believe a threeway sexual situation occured.
May 31, 2009 I think I saw this movie in 2007 or 2008. It might have been a film short, and I saw it on DirecTV (satellite). I can't recall the name of the film, but I believe it was a german man's fist name, like "Adolph" or "Johann," although neither of those are the title. The plot was that this fellow gets a job working in a museum, and his responsiblity is to top off the alcohol in all of the thousands of specimen jars in the museum since the alcohol is constantly evaporating. After a while he begins to wonder about how each of these specimen-infused alcohols might taste, so her begins sampling some of them. Sure enough, the flavors are unique, and his curiosity only grows. He samples alcohol infused with animals, birds, plants, amphibians, etc. Finally he discovers the ultimate infusion, and he tries it, with unfortunate results. I have tried searches on IMdB for keywords and plots that included "museum" "alcohol" "specimen jar" etc, with no success.
May 31, 2009 Im looking for a movie that ive only seen the trailer for, the trailer was on a vhs for manic cop cant remember what one i think it might have been number 3 and im sure the film was called Bizarre
May 30, 2009 I'm guessing that I saw this movie between 1977 and 1980. It was on tv and in color. I remember that there was a small structure, about the size of a small bedroom, that was on the grounds of a mansion. The front of the structure was a glass wall, maybe it had curtains that could be drawn from the inside. The body of a beautiful woman was laid out inside, on display. She could have been dead (preserved) or it could have been a wax figure. I don't remember. I believe that a man had done this because he could not bear that he had lost this woman. The movie ended with a raging fire that swept over the grounds and destroyed the building with the body inside.
May 27, 2009 I saw this in parts a few times on a cable movie channel in the mid 1980's. It was in color, a post-apocalyptic tale reminiscent of "A Boy and his Dog." The main character was a young man whose companion in his travels through the wasteland was an artificial intelligence contained on a sceptre like thing, a stick with a ball on the end that was a computer. He carried it everywhere, and it spoke to him, and he spoke to it. A climactic scene, maybe the end of the movie, is them coming under fire from antagonists and him diving for cover. He is still holding the sceptre computer, who is still in the line of fire and is yelling at him to pull him down, but too late, because the computer orb is destroyed, and the guy is left with the smoking end of the stick.
May 27, 2009 Could have been shot in the late 60's or 70's. It starts in colour for the opening scene then back to black and white for the bulk of the film and ends in the final minutes in colour.Synopsis: A young, idealistic Red army soldier (could be another Eastern block communist country) gets posted on a trans Siberian prisoner transport train and during the journey his comrades reveal their darker side. Letting prisoners out to play poker and gamble, having prostitutes on the train, drinking etc, etc. He tries to rmind them of their duty as soldiers and is met by laughter.Eventually he goes nuts and shoots them all. As the train pulls into Red Square underground station on the return trip the carnage is discovered and he finds himself being hunted by half of the army based in Moscow (or wherever they are). Ends up holed up in a toilet cubicle where upon the film ends with him shooting himself.I'm assuming it was set in Stalin - Russia, dead of winter. I'm assuming it was Russian, could be Chzech film, Hungarian etc. I remember this film so vividly from when I was about 14 or so.
May 24, 2009 I saw a movie in the 80's, i was about 7 or 8 years old. I'm not sure if it was an HBO movie or just a special. It is an adult actor protraying a boy in his bedroom.(i remember he had a stripped shirt and a sideways hat, i think) he is the only one in the movie. i think you can hear his mothers voice in the backround but i'm not sure. the set is only the boys bedroom and looks like a theather set. I remember a big bed and a large dresser with clothes hanging out of it.
May 22, 2009 I saw a movie about 10 years ago, probably like 1997 or 1998. I remember it being a fairly old movie, but i was young so my memory is distorted. It was about a young boy (16 or 17) who was being tutored (or taught i think) by a married middle aged woman. She lived in an apartment with a balcony. Part way through he asked her to teach him how to kiss, and from that point on, they began a secret affair.
May 21, 2009 i saw a film that was made in america in the mid 70s and in colour.the woman wakes up in the middle of the night and there is a message written in lipstick on her mirror.she also lived near an oil well because i can recall seeing one several times in the film .i saw it on tv.it was a thriller.
May 21, 2009 i remember seeing a film made in the early to mid 70s.a man with a moustache was travelling through the middle of nowhere and his wife goes missing.he stops at a cafe and he enquires about some chocolate bars and the owner of the cafe says something like "they are all past their use by date anyway"and they both laugh.
May 20, 2009 movie i saw a very long time ago about ahigh school gang member or some sort trying to get to a specific kid, teacher trys to help .gang member drops kid through ceiling of school through glass, kid is hanging by chain. i believe gang member drives a purple car with tinted windows and you cant see inside
May 20, 2009 Unsure of the actual plot but the movie was made between 1979 and 1990. All I remember is a family moves into a house with a painting in the attic and i think the painting is possessed. Their neighbor (middleaged woman) cuts her finger on the frame of the painting and a few days later she's dying mysteriously and no one can figure out why. Also I remember a scene where someone was sticking their hand into a garbage disposal and even though they taped the switch in the off position, it starts attempting to flip itself on.
May 19, 2009 Late 1960's is when I saw this film:animated short film about a hat that fell over a political boundary which 2 soldiers were patrolling. I believe it was set in Europe or Eastern Europe.
May 19, 2009 I estimate that I saw this movie in the early 90s (1994-1995), I think the general plot was about two American teenagers getting up to no good, I will describe the scenes that I remember.1. Boy 1 in roo on bed, boy 2 comes in and give boy 1 a garden gnome/small statue, (might have been his birthday)Boy 1 not impressed. Boy 2 smashes gnome and inside is a bottle of whisky/liquor. that's it2.I think there was a scene where is't night and someone is floating on a rubber ring in a pool wearing a sombrero. I think there are christmas lights around the pool.3. I think there is a scene outside some sort of shack and someone is reading Guns and Ammo.Apart from that the film is colour, American, prob made in the 80s.
May 19, 2009 I saw it on SBS around ten years ago so it is definitley foreign language Italian from memory. i am looking for the title of a colour film, Italian, late 1960's where a young very good looking couple keep a rich 40 something blond ( good looking as well ) woman prisoner in her own mansion. I think they mentally torment her and keep her drunk or drugged. I cant be sure but i think they drive off in a red sports car in the end and crash. I think they were trying to drive her crazy to secure the deed to her house. It was very pop/arty, very " chic " and in the style of jess franco or Mario Bava but not a horror. Title was also quite outlandish from memory. think it had the words 'candy' or 'lipstick' ( this request was previously answered as "lady In A Cage" but this is incorrect although a similarplot lines, anyway thanks for the help so far! )
May 16, 2009 This request refers to the 70's show Wonderama that was hosted by Bob McAllister. I remember when Bob had a guest animator with a film clip of what looked like little cherubs playing out the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. When they ate the forbidden fruit everything went black, then the Satan cherub character came flying out and laughing. One of the other characters said, "Oh h*ll!" Bob tried to clean it up by saying that of course the character said, "Oh help!" I know that Bob's Wonderama shows were destroyed and Bob has died. The clip was not a cartoon. It was almost like Claymation but smoother. Any information about the guest animator or the show that the clip came from would be appreciated.
May 16, 2009 I was a kid, so I don't remember much, but it was a movie shown on tv back in the early 70's about a Japanese man who had a white girlfriend. People did not accept their relationship, and I think while walking down the street a white man was holding up a sign that said "Jap." At the end of the movie, the Japanese man knelt down on the river bank and fell forward thus killing himself. I think the movie was in color.
May 15, 2009 i saw this black and white animated short foreign film on ifc in the mid- to late 90's. i believe it's from the netherlands.holland or denmark is my guess. the animation was very cutting edge, stark and contrasty. it looked almost like woodcut or something. unfortunately i don't remember hardly any details about the plot or what happens, just images. i know it was set in a bar and i remember there was a character with a peg leg, there was a sad woman, and a dog i think, and someone rowing a canoe in the turbulent sea. there was GREAT music, that sounded to me at the time like a danish nick cave.
May 14, 2009 British kids show that aired on American television during the early 80s.The only thing I remember are a group of kids who placed what looked like colored playdough on a train or some vehicle to turn it on.
May 14, 2009 I’m trying to locate the name of a movie trailer I saw at the theater in front of Popeye back in 1980-1981. Back then I didn’t know what a movie trailer was and thought it was a clip from Popeye or a clip to a sequel to Popeye. This couldn’t be the case since a sequel was never made. The only image I remember was a guy about to be shot out of a cannon. At the time I thought it was Bluto who was in the cannon. Again I didn’t realize the difference between a movie and a trailer (I was only 4). The man in the cannon could have been Bud Spencer or someone who looked like him.
May 14, 2009 It was a film I watched in 2nd or 3rd grade during the early 80s. It was about washing/keeping clean. I remember a guy in a germ suit introducing 3 or 4 segments of stories. Each story was about a kid who was being spoken to by cleaning products around him/her. The last segment was of a boy in a bathroom talking to the soap, towels and other toiletries. They were telling him he had to take a shower regularly and should also wash the bath mat with the laundry. The bath mat then flings the kid into the shower. Finally it cuts back to the germ host who is getting washed away by a bunch of suds.
May 14, 2009 I saw this movie in elementary school during the early to mid 80s. The film looked like it was shot in the mid to late 70s. It was about a kid (I think he was Hispanic) who wanted to be treated like an adult. I think he got a job. His parents rented him an area in the living room next to the couch. I remember him eating his dinner in the space. I could be confusing this with another movie, but he might have bought a small turtle.
May 12, 2009 I saw a commercial promo for a film back in the mid-to-late 1970s on CBS; it may have been a made-for-TV movie. A man pulls back a shower curtain to reveal a trembling, dark-haired woman covering her breasts (there was a clearly visible bottle of Clairol Herbal Essence shampoo in the soap rack - a product placement?); the promo then jump-cuts to the couple in the shower embracing, seen through the translucent curtain.
May 12, 2009 I think this is a 1980s or 1990s American film. It's a colored movie. There is this guy who's driving in the woods and there is a big storm. He crashes his car and has to find shelter. He comes across this cabin/cottage in the woods where this old man lives with this young, beautiful woman. I think they are a couple. But the man and this young girl are attracted to each other. But they are both scared of the older man, because he's crazy! I do remember a few scenes. The one scene is where this guy is living/sleeping in the basement and he hears the couple upstairs having sex, so he does EVERYTHING he can to drown out the sound. So he's doing push-ups and sit-ups to try stay focused. The other scene is the old man is out in the woods somewhere either chopping wood or hunting and this stranded guy is outside taking a shower in the cottage's outside shower and the girl finds him there. That's pretty much all I can remember. I think I saw it on Lifetime, but I can't be sure. It's a thriller/drama/Romance movie. Also, it's raining THE ENTIRE MOVIE!. And I think the man is staying at the house until the rain stops and he can go get help.
May 11, 2009 I'm looking for a film made in the late 80's - 90's involving a private school headmaster and his neglected hot wife (who has a leg brace), i believe one of the headmaster's students seduces the wife. This is all I saw/remember of the film. The 'hot' wife is a brunette and i think her name was Eve, which i think is also in the title.
May 8, 2009 I remember seeing this movie when I was younger during the 90's. I thought the movie I was thinking of was My Neighbor Totoro. However, the anime movie I remember, there was scene where it is a little boy or girl is at his mom's funeral and he throws dirt into the grave. Then the rest of the movie is about him learning to cope with the death.
May 7, 2009 This movie I've been trting to find for the longest! It was on Showtime channel in the 80's. It was animated and was rated R or PG. There was some nudity and launguage. There was a male narrator and the little boy was from somewhere like the east because I remember the city. He runs away from the city and finds a blonde girl who strangely transforms from a demon to a young pretty girl. She then leads him up some glass stairs to heaven but when he climbs she disapears further. Then I remember seeing the part where he goes into the forrest and finds a nude woman bathing. There's fairies and she turns around and says' "Shhhhh!" and then her eyes glow white and he gets scarred and runs then he turns into a deer and then theres a wolf ready to devour him.
May 6, 2009 This is a black and white film where a young eskimo (20-30) gets injured very badly, probably from an encounter with a polar bear or other large animal. His wife (?) an attractive young eskimo nurses him back to life in an igloo where they are for some reason isolated. It is a long recuperation, and when physically better the young hunter is still depressed and without interest in life until his wife makes love with him in what I remember as being a very pleasantly erotic scene. I saw it on a cassette back in about 1987.
May 5, 2009 This was a short film included in as part of a short film collection I saw on the IFC channel in the fall of 2001. The short film lasted only about 10-15 minutes and was about a mother and small daughter (between 8 and 11) who are in the process of moving into a new home. The daughter immediately runs upstairs and into an attic where she finds an old chest with a dollhouse in it. She starts to play with the dolls while the mother unpacks downstairs. Everything the daughter does to the dolls happens to the mother downstairs. She moves the doll through the house and the doll hits the walls, ceiling etc. The mother is being flown around the house downstairs hitting the walls, etc. The film ends when the daughter decides to stop playing with the dolls.
May 4, 2009 It's a French romantic comedy. I saw it on TV in the UK in the late 70's/early 80's so it must have been an early 70's or late 60's film. The main female character shoplifted clothes by wearing lots of layers of stolen clothes. (She may have had pockets in a big coat to steal stuff too; but I could be confusing this with another film.) She gets married in the film but is dressed as a groom in perhaps a tuxedo or maybe just a dark suit. I remember thinking this was the most glamourous thing ever. It was very light and breezy in tone.
May 1, 2009 Movie from the late 1980s or early 1990s. It was played on tv when I saw it, so it could be older.It involves a guy being haunted by the memory of his sister's drowning in a deserted pool (the pool has leaves and debris in it; it is fenced in so it could have been a public pool). It takes place on a rocky coastline, and he keeps going back to the water having flashbacks of finding his sister in the pool. There is also a woman (ghost) in a flowing white gown that he keeps seeing on the beach and there is a lighthouse.I remember it being "haunting" and not scary (pretty haunting especially since I remember it after all of these years). There is a lot of music in it and not too much talking.
Apr 29, 2009 looking for a title to a movie that she seen in the nineties sometime. it has a british male nanny who babysits a spoiled brat daughter of a women who lives in an apartment. the nanny makes the daughter clean and at the end of the movie the mother throws a dinner party or something.
Apr 28, 2009 Its a TV movie from the mid to late 90's and I'm sure it had Marshall Bell in or his brother(if he's got one). Marshall Bell was the bad guy and he has a big busted blonde girlfriend/sidekick. The lead character is a Cheryl Ladd type actress and I think she had lost her daughter in a car accident which she has nightmares about. She is helped by a younger man with dark long hair who had some trouble with the cops or something. Basically it was a shite TV movie but I still want to know what it was called.
Apr 26, 2009 I Watched this film aroun 1998 on tv but it may have been older. It was Colour. Basically what i remember is a husband and wife on a boat who get hijacked. He gets his legs broken with a hammer and is kept prisoner on a boat being towed behind. Later in the movie he makes leg splints and i think uses a harpoon. They have a cat who dies after getting clogged in the propellor, possibly thrown overboard by the hijackers.
Apr 25, 2009 i am looking for the title of a move possibly made in the 80's or very early 90's it was about a killer who would kill women trying to find the perfect match for this old victorian type painting he had of a girl on a couch, in the end the killer ends up being the cop investigating the killings and he finds a match to his painting and at the end she kills him and is seen leaving on a boat
Apr 24, 2009 I have a very short memory of this movie. so I don't know if anyone can help. All I remember is one scene in an indoor pool or conservatory (glass walls and ceiling). Someone is hiding in a closet that has doors that have slats like blinds. Someone is looking out and sees some people (bad guys) or possibly skeletons or monsters or something come in.
Apr 24, 2009 I watched this film on dutch/german channel in the early 90's 91 or 92, I think it was a dutch film, the scene I remember is a woman walking along a beach, reminising about a bearded man rubbing her hands, next scene is she is walking through people in a building - she is then tied to chair by her hands by the bloke she was dreaming about.
Apr 24, 2009 A movie on television during the mid-to-late 80's, so it could have played in the theaters during the early-to-mid 80's (or even the late 70's, but I doubt it). The hero enters a house, and in the living room, a normal looking blond-haired guy wearing sports shorts (he reminds me of a tennis player) suddenly attacks him. The guy doesn't speak and lunges at the hero. Suddenly, the guy explodes (or is shot by the hero using a laser blaster. I'm not too sure). He looked normal/human. I think it may be similar to the body snatchers concept. He was probably being controlled, but it's not Invasion from Mars, Body Snatchers, Pod People, Blade Runner, Logan's Run, The Hidden, or Trancers. He never decomposed. He just. exploded!
Apr 20, 2009 I am looking for a movie for my aunt. It was on tv between 1990 to 1997. It was about a mother who had six children. She treated them well when father was home but when he left, she would lock them up, giving them pots for the bathroom. One of her sons fell off the roof from climbing out the window to try to get his siblings food. The movie continues on to the kids (all six) going to a foster home and growing up to live better lives. My aunt recalls that the boy who fell was interveiwed at the end of the movie. It was colored and possibly seen on Hallmark.
Apr 19, 2009 I am looking for the name of movie I think it was a made for TV movie in the 70's or 80's. The plot was two teens perhaps the only 2 people left on earth. They would communicate via computer and play games. Later they realized that they must meet to fight against I think it was some type of robots.
Apr 18, 2009 I watched this movie sometime around 1993-1996 (probably 1995) in a public bus in mexico. The movie was color and in english. I remember this muscular white guy, he seemed like a real badass to me back then, running away from someone through like a dessert. He was in a sports car (i think it was a red ferarri) and was accompanied by a hot looking probably blonde girl. They stopped somewhere in the middle of the dessert (or it was sunny at least, im not sure it was a dessert) and she was taking care of some wound he had. They proceeded to engage in a sex scene.
Apr 18, 2009 I am looking for the name of a film I saw in the mid 1980s. We were shown it in school, so it must have been a children's film. I think it was in colour. All I can remember is a part where two children, a boy and a girl, are being chased (possibly through a forest) by a tall man with blond hair who is wearing a white suit. They are hiding from him in a type of quarry. He is turning around on the spot with his arm outstretched and his finger pointed. He sees them but I can't remember what happened after that. There is possibly a spaceship in this film but i can't be sure. It is not Escape to Witch Mountain.
Apr 16, 2009 I saw a movie in the 80's made in the 70's about a famly forced to work on a farm of some kind picking beans or something, it was set in the southern us I think. I kinda tink they were the only white people working on the the farm, all the other workers were black. I was young when I saw it. I do recall the father in that film giving his son a pocket knife as a gift he got in the town and the son useing it later on the the movie to help the famley escape the farm, in the end of the movie the family is walking next to the reflecting pool in Washington D.C.
Apr 13, 2009 im looking for the name of a film i saw (on video) between 1998 and 2003. In it there are these lizzard like creatures whos bones make guns out of that possibly fire human teeth. The main actor in it is a young male, its an american film, it possibly begins with 'R'
Apr 11, 2009 french mini tv series around 1980, (maybe only 3 - 1 hours episodes) a couple walks and then girfriend get hit by a object (bottle i think) thrown from a small airplane(piper cherokee-4 seater) and boyfriend wants to avenge her. he ends up tracking down and killing the four men and finally gets caught by the police , a french police woman who dress up as his girlfriend on the anniversary of her death. the police shoots him dead.
Apr 11, 2009 I watched a film in the early to mid 90's on tv about a teenage boy who has an affair with an older married woman. and then another one. then he leaves town and meets a girl in a cinema who's exactly his own age and ends up with her. it's set in the USA in the 50's or 60's. coming of age, drama/comedy.
Apr 5, 2009 I am looking for a movie from the mid to early 90's(may have been older). I know it was on cable and possibly a movie/premium channel like HBO etc. All I remember best is there is a scene where 4 or so people are sitting around a kitchen table eating and theres a guy and girl who are I beleive playing footsie. Then at some point the guy catches the girl in the hallway and they have sex right there against the wall, with everyone in the other room. I dont remember if she was willing or raped and if it was an affair or he was her teacher.somthing along those lines. Not a porn movie, it was in color, thats as much as I remember.also I beleive Hellraiser was on close to the same time a few channels away. Thanks for any help.
Apr 4, 2009 Fan mail from some Flounder: Your site is *fantastic*! I was able to search through your pages & find the name of a film I saw as a child that no one was able to come up with - A Reflection of Fear. I had been trying to find out about this film for years. Thanks so much to all of you!
Apr 3, 2009 I saw a film in the early 90's on TV (colour) - a family film about an american young girl who rollerskates everywhere and is either on vacation and staying in a hotel or something - there are scenes where she makes cakes in the kitchens and chews bubblegum constantly . Could be vegas - there is a casino if i recall right! she helps the maids and is always getting into trouble. she has really 80's hair and is a bit of a spoiled brat.
Apr 3, 2009 I am looking for a movie/tv movie/tv show episode that I saw in the 1970's. I remember seeing it twice on television. I think it was a murder/suspense movie.The parts that I can remember:1 A man's wife is killed in a car accident. He knows/believes that she is dead. An imposter wife shows up and he doesn't know what is going on.2 In one scene he stabs some guy in the stomach. I've always thought that it was some plumber and they were both in the kitchen. Later in the show, he finds out that it was a prop knife and that guy didn't die.3 Late in the show, he goes to where his wife's car is wrecked. I believe it is a small yellow vehicle. He opens the door and she is up against the steering wheel. He pulls her back and she definitely died in the car. I think she had blond hair.I always thought that the guy in the show was Dick Van Dyke but I've never been able to find any show that he was in like this.
Mar 28, 2009 I saw a movie on TV I can only tell you that it was in the 80's. What I can remember is that the scene was a highschool and there was a serial rapist on the loose. A girl gets raped and goes to the police. She gets a lot of attention from everyone because of this. Another girl sees this and gets jealous and starts telling everyone that she was raped as well. The girl who really was raped finds out that she was lying and confronts the lying girl at her house during a rainstorm. They fight and the girl who actually was raped leaves but then the lying girls gets phone calls with no voice on the line. She starts freaking out and when she opens the front door the girl who left is hanging on it murdered.
Mar 28, 2009 I saw an American movie that I think came out in the late 70's or 80's. I didn't see it in theater but I don't think it was a tv movie. Also it was color. The movie was about a bus full of teenagers(I think around 17 years old) that was hijacked by a small group of people, there was only one woman amongst the hijackers. I think that main character was a teenager girl. They were taken to a place in the middle of nowhere on the side of the road. There was an area with grass and behind that was a forrest. I want to say that there where ropes that most of the teens climbed to get away from the hijackers but then they(the hijackers) started climbing up after them. At the end, the hijackers had all the teens line up in rows and as each row stepped forward, they shot the male teens, but not all of them. After that they finally went on the bus again and I think there was one more scene before the end.
Mar 27, 2009 i remember watching this movie when i was a younger about a young boy who meets a magical little girl / creature named "udagoo" (not sure if that's even how you spell it) i remember this girl having short black hair and very pale skin. she's magical and there is one scene where she is making things fly around his room. i want to say the movie was made in the 80's, but i was born in 89, so it would have aired in the 90's. i believe it was on the disney channel i found this post on askville, and it seems like were talking about the same movie,"All I can really remember is that it was about a boy who was a musician, maybe went to a school for it, played i think the cello and worked in a floral shop. He finds a girl that lives in a plant in his shop and he has to save her world with a magical conductors baton.
Mar 26, 2009 Movie from the early to mid 1970s. The only scene I remember is someone drugging a woman on a boat (like a 20 foot cabin cruiser) and cutting off her hand to steal her bracelet.
Mar 26, 2009 The movie opens with the protagonists having sex in a gas-stop restroom (woman's room locked? she uses men's room). During sex, the woman steals the man's wallet. Soon, somehow, they are both on the same lonely mountain road where someone is shooting at them and has already killed another driver. The movie turns into a long hunt through the mountains as the protagonists try to escape the killers--who turn out to be young boys (one of them obviously a sociopath). I don't remember the stars, but the movie was surprisingly good and had some added layers one would not expect.I thought the title was "King of the Hill (or Mountain)," but I can't find any movie by that title.
Mar 25, 2009 I saw this movies in the early 1970s. The setting is the American prairies--late 1800s. A very young boy is washed down a wild river, perhaps with his dog. The mom, dad and community search for him but eventually assume he drowned. Somehow the boy is able to fend for himself and years later, when he is mabye 8 to 12, he finds his way home. I'm almost certain it is a color film.
Mar 25, 2009 This movie was in black and white, was done in the late 40's or 50's. I viewed it at the Masonic Home and School, Ft. Worth, Texas in the mid- 50's. Our school apparently had distribution rights or a source for first run movies. I do not remember the actors or movie company. The cars in the movie were from the late 30's or early 40's. I do not remember where this group of criminals came from or how they got to the house in which they had held the family who lived there. They were trying to illude the cops. The cops or maybe a sheriff, finaly caught up to them. The leader went out the back screen door and began clawing up a sand hill behind the house to get away. The film emphasized the effort of the man to get up the hill and played up the suspense of his almost reaching the top to safety. The cop or county sheriff took a rifle and slowly took aim and shot the guy just as he reached the crest. The bad guy rolled all the way back down the sand hill. I believe this was the end. I keep thinking the bad guy was Jack Palance but I do not clearly remember who it was.
Mar 24, 2009 I saw this film several times on TV during 2008. I believe that the setting is during the 1950's. It is the story of a married Italian man who befriends and later marries an Irish girl who has a black child. While the mother is looking into putting her child up for adoption, the Italian man falls in love with her and her child. They opened a restaurant together and at first have trouble getting customers. I believe this is a true story and the young child who was going to be put up for adoption is adopted by the Italian man when he marries his mother. The child is now the owner of the restaurant.
Mar 21, 2009 I seen this mexican movie on a mexican tour bus, it may be mexican or english. cant remember, pretty sure it was mexican if i remember correctly.there was this guy and his wife, mexican, and his son who was about 5 years old or so, the couple was fighting arguing over her mother coming to visit her dropped in unannounced. and to stay, sets the husband into a rage and he starts fights with her over and insults the mother in law. while he was seeing another woman on the side, and his son soon sees his dad kissing the other woman, as the guy kicks the mother in law out or she leaves then the , husband, keeps treating his wife bad, then the wife, files for divorce.the husband wants his son, and becomes friends with his divorce wife to be living apart, and trys to get her help for her depression, and gets her all whacked out on drugs, so he can get custody of his son, then right after the proceeding, he goes to see his son, and while they were arguing the father buys and brings over a bike for his son, as they were arguing the son rides the bike off the top of the townhouse type villa and off the balcony on the second floor bedroom into the street. the kid dies.and the husband, realizes his values had changed and saw his new girlfriend that was like a news anchor or model, couldnt cook or do naything his wife could, and he was left alone by his fiance that was not all cracked up to be what he thought he wanted and read the bible that was giv en to him by his brother or someone that was telling him all along to read it and to put his marriage back together all along and that was mans purpose.this movie was suspenseful the every minute, and was very dramatic .it was so gooood. and emotional. i dont remember anyone famous in the movie, but it was good, the actors and actresses were very goodlooking, the woman looked like penelop cruz, and he looked like a businessman that was in his mid thirtys to mid fortys.he was a real asshole at first.
Mar 18, 2009 70's / early 80's, Disney-esque? Colour. Intrepid kids getting caught up in some mischief.I think it was a British film, and one of the only things I really remember was some of the action (kids being chased) taking part on a moored boat near the end. The boat was a non-descript steel cargo boat I think. I do remember them utilising things to battle the bad guys, like marbles making them trip over and trip wires. impressive stuff to a young lad.
Mar 17, 2009 I saw it late 1999 early 2000. All I can remember of this film is that a girl lived with her mother . when her mother left, a boy and girl dressed in all black broke into the house. They chased the girl up the stairs and when the mom came home, she found her daughter with her throat cut.
Mar 17, 2009 i saw the movie when i was a little kid, so had to be mid to late 80's / early 90's. saw it on TV. color. this one guy builds a car and armors it with machine guns and rocket launchers and all this stuff and then has to race/fight this other guy who built a car out of some kind of crashed jet (stealth bomber?.). they were in a desert i think. it had kind of a "post-apocalyptic" type feel, but i could be way off on that.
Mar 16, 2009 i'm looking for a french film about a prostitute. I remember she meets with another former prostitute who is trying to hide money from her pimp she asks the main prostitute to spring her son out of the orphanage. when she meets with the boy he holds a key around his neck to a locker somewhere where the money is hidden. She ends up becoming responsible for the teenage boy who soon becomes infatuated with her as he is discovering his sexuality for the first time. I have no idea what its called. i just remember the main prostitute is blond with curly hair always looks kinda bedraggled but pretty.there's a part in the film when she arrives at the orphanage the woman asks her to sign papers saying she is responsible for the boy she intends to take out, to which the prostute replies, do I look responsible to you" to which the woman replies no but now you are. i think at least some of this film takes place in paris.
Mar 13, 2009 There was a made-for-TV movie on Nickelodeon (possibly on "Snick") in the 90s, most likely somewhere between the years 1996-2000. The protagonists are two young siblings, a boy and girl who are living in some sort of post-apocalyptic desert world. They have no parents but one day they find a map that is supposed to lead them to a paradise/oasis type place. They proceed on a journey with an adult friend who is Frankenstein's monster-like, very large and strong. To travel in the desert they have these hovering surfboards with sails attached and fly over the sand and they wear bike helmets. At some point they come across a place that looks like ancient Rome/Greece where they meet a very old looking Julius Caesar with white hair and blue/greenish skin tone. At some point they are running through tunnels and the Frankenstein man sacrifices himself to save them and he dies by poison gas. In the end they find a goateed man wearing either a red/orange/yellow jumpsuit who they thought had been their parents' friend but they find out he killed their parents. Then at the very end the two find their way to the oasis and that's where the film ends. The actors may have had accents- I am unsure but I am assuming it was made in the United States, in color. It is a live-action film, not animated.
Mar 5, 2009 i watched this movie as a little girl i was born in 89 so im not sure if the movie came out before that or while i was already born it was i believe it was a boy and a girl or maybe 1 boy and 2 girls and they where somewhere tiring to escape cause they where kidnapped or something like that i know it was in a town and all i can remember is very little and i know its not escape to witch mountian but the plot and everything is kinda like that it is a family movie tho and it was on a really fancy house
Mar 5, 2009 Looking for a Cinemax late-night movie I saw sometime are 1980. Pretty sure the plot involved a woman who's father was killed by her mother-in-law in order to gain control of the family farm? She gets revenge by offing her mother-in-laws three sons in a series of accidents. One involved a son chasing her in the hayloft of the barn, where she moves out of the way such that he falls out of a window to his death. The mother-in-law suspects these accidents aren't accidents, but has no proof.
Mar 4, 2009 Someone wants to know if any of us have a copy of the following movie: Miracles Still Happen (1974) aka I Miracoli accadono ancora starring Susan Penhaligon as Juliane Koepcke. There are several expensive ones out there, but he is looking for a cheaper one.
Mar 4, 2009 Looking for a movie or made for tv movie im guessing 60's or 70's possibly black and white or maybe that was just the tv. Anyhow a scene with multiple people, i think only women, in tubs that had covers stretched over them but their heads were sticking out. Like they were trapped or something. I think there was steam also. But one lady appeared to be escaping by finding a hole in the cover with her toe and started to rip it.
Mar 1, 2009 Watched on tv in 1980's, possible early 1990's. I believe it was a movie, but I watched a lot of Tales from the Crypt, and Are you Afraid of the Dark style shows as well. All I remember is what I think was the end of the movie/show. A teenage male and female's clothed skeletal remains are found sitting side by side, trapped in an underground cement walled room that you would have to climb down into (through a man hole maybe?) Possibly under a gas station? They had apparently gotten sealed in or trapped and died. I think the girl skeleton was wearing a poodle skirt and had on the boy's varsity or school sweater. I am thinking they had been missing since the 1950's (not just dressed like that for halloween or something). I forget the main characters of the movie or who it is that finds them. I think after the skeletons are discovered their spirits drive off in an old vehicle that would've been popular at the time of their disappearance (50's ford thunderbird maybe.) And the people that found them watch them drive off and are happy that the issue was resolved and they are at peace.I don't remember the main plot of the film.if it was scary, like the ghosts of the dead couple haunting the modern day teens (or adults) (modern day being 1980's or early 1990's, whenever it was filmed).or it it was more of a mystery like trying to find out what happened to them. I think it was just being a kid and seeing the teenage skeletons that stuck with me and that's why I just remember that one part.wish I could remember more.
Mar 1, 2009 I saw this film at a movie theater in 1978 or 1979. I don't remember very much, except that it's very very sad. It was in color, and was probably an American film (?). I remember it was about a couple having problems and wanting to get a divorce. They have two children, a boy and a girl, both very young (under 10 years of age). The kids wanted their parents to stay together, but the parents (separated?) were each already involved in another relationship at this point. The kids did all sorts of things to try to make the parents fall back in love again, but it just didn't work out. Finally, the couple decided to go through with the divorce, and announced their decision to the kids. Needless to say, the kids were devastated. The night before the final split up, the two kids decided to run away to their grandmother's. They left in the middle of the night. It was raining very hard, and for some reason they stopped in the middle of the trip (I think they were too weak, or too sick to continue). The brother (the elder of the two) could not go on anymore. He told his sister to go ahead without him, and they said their good-byes there. I remember the last scene of the film was the morning after -- there's this big tree with red leaves all over it, and the boy was found under the tree, dead! This film (I believe) was later adopted and made into this Hong Kong movie called "quan2 jia1 fu2" [a.k.a. "A Family Affair"] in 1984, and was a big hit there. In the Hong Kong version they turned it into a happy ending though.
Feb 23, 2009 An old film (possibly mid 80's or made to look like it). The plot runs like this - a guy in his 30's goes on holiday to a tropical island and stays at a hotel where there are the three other main characters - the owner (tough bare-chested guy, i think always wearing a cowboy hat), his wife (big-chested, long hair), and his 18-year-old-looking daughter. The guy slinks around, at one point having sex with the daughter on the beach and the wife in the nearby lagoon (top scene). I recall (possibly the final scene) where the guy is injured (possibly shot) and gets into a boat and runs away.
Feb 23, 2009 I'm looking for an old movie I saw as a child (in the 60's). I really don't remember that much about it. The thing I do remember is a young boy whose father dies. His mother later gets married again to a very hard man, who spank's the boy every time he does something wrong. In the end of the movie something happens an the boy gets spanked again, and he then runs down to a river and jumps in to a little boat and starts drifting down the river while the boy crye's himself to sleep.
Feb 21, 2009 My friend saw this movie about 1963 or so. It was animated, nicely done, as if by Disney. The only scene he remembers is a boy in a small boat on a stream who is going to find/rescue some girl. A witch is on a bridge above the stream and wants to stop him, so she opens a small vial and a couple of drops of liquid fall into the stream next to the bridge. The boy is unaware and continues under the bridge, but what comes out the other side is a big, white swan. The witch has transformed the boy and boat.
Feb 19, 2009 I am Resubmitting this because the answer I got was not correct. This is NOT a Night gallery "Certain shadows on the wall" episode. I have all the Night gallery tapes. The show I am looking for, I thought was an episode of "One step beyond", but after seeing most of them l realize this is probably not correct. It is a black and white episode and this middle aged man & woman live in this mansion or castle. I think the man may have killed another man in that house cuz a partial image of a face, ( the victim's face), Not a shadow, appears on the wall of the big house. No matter how many times the man cleans that wall or paints over it,the image comes back. I used to see this when I lived in New York in the 80's.
Feb 17, 2009 I am looking for the name of an episode of the 1960s U.S. television series "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.". All I can remember is a scene where Illya Kuryakin is sneaking around some sort of women's gym or school--the ladies were dressed in black leotards. Several young women trap Illya by tossing doughnut-shaped floatation devices (from the pool?) over his head until he was completely encased in them and could not move. This episode is definitely not "The Her Master's Voice Affair" which I recently viewed on DVD.
Feb 14, 2009 This a (possibly British) film from (possibly) the 80s about a man who works at a lingerie store and has trouble speaking with women, and thus joins a supposedly secret society of misogynists that's really a group of hopeless middle aged men looking for ways to cope with their lack of any female attention, and invite e.g. Catholic priests to their meetings to teach them ways to 'calm down', etc. Finally the protagonist meets a woman who works at a bowling alley, and there's much clumsiness.
Feb 13, 2009 i saw this movie that i believe is from the 1970s or early 80s.i saw it as a kid on tv. as i remember it: the plot was a woman/housewife who assumed an alter ego(i think she wore a wig and dressed like a hooker). she hung out at a bar or restaurant with some criminal types. she ends up having sex with the bartender who worked there. i forget why, but in the end she kills them at the bar and then turns the gun on the bartender, but doesnt shoot him and lets him live.it turns out the bartender was an undercover cop but he lets the girl get away with it.
Feb 11, 2009 am trying to find an old movie i watched many years ago probably between 1985 and 1995. All i remember is this young girl about the age of 18 being awakened by 1 or 2 policemen one morning. They tell her that her parents who had gone away for the weekend had died in a plane crash. She is left alone in a big house and authorities later find her foster parents. She doesn't like her new foster parents and one night escapes never to return. She soon finds herself on dangerous streets and is befriended by a slightly older boy who later on falls in love with her. Her family had just moved to this lovely neighbourhood before they died.
Feb 11, 2009 I Saw this movie circa(1996-1997) on vhs. It was in color. It was a horror movie. I cant remember if the killer was a zombie or what. But, One of the scenes I remember Is There is a couple in a parked car making out. The killer comes to the driver side and pulls the boyfriend out of the car and kills him. Then The Killer grabs the woman. She is trying to get away kicking and screaming. The Killer Throws her on the hood of the car. She is still struggling.Next Thing you see he is raping her,her pants are off. At First she is still like NO! or trying to fight him. But I guess it starts to feel good to her and she starts to enjoy it or get into it. The Killer is holding her legs while having sex with her. And In a final act of evil pushes her legs all the way back so far she can't stand the pain. You see blood gush up into the killers face as she is gasping One last scream. She dies.
Feb 6, 2009 Several years ago I saw a movie on Cinemax or Showtime latenight. It was about a "geeky" computer hacker that starts working for this guy and his wife. He starts having an affair with the wife but she gets jealous when she finds out he also had sex with her friend while riding around in a limo so the wife sets him up. He is saved by his "nerdy" friends including another girl that likes him. I believe the end has him riding around in the back of the van having sex with the girl that saved him. I want to say the movie took place in France or somewhere else in Europe.
Feb 1, 2009 My grade school used to show a series about some kids who are trying to find their Dad who was sucked into a magic pinball machine. Every week was a different adventure that brought them closer to finding there Dad. I believe the Canadian TV series shown on PBS called "Mythquest" was based on this show. Can you please help with any information about this show? It was shown around the early 80's, though it may be as old as the mid-late 70's.
Jan 26, 2009 I saw this film in the 80s I think and a full family is camping when they are kidnapped and held captive somewhere and the wife cheats on her husband with the kidnapper and has sex.
Jan 25, 2009 I remember seeing this movie in the late 80's or early 90's. The movie was set in the 30's-50's. All I can remember is a kid stealing/ borrowing his parents car for him and his teenage friends to ride around in. The kid wrecks the car in the middle of a pasture and is worried his parents will punish him. The main character is sneaking around in the swamp and finds a witch's shack. I think she sees him peeking through the window and grabs him, but i'm not sure. The movie was in color. I remember seeing it at home, but don't recall if it was on tv or a rental.
Jan 21, 2009 Don't have much, but saw a little bit of this in dec. 08 on FX, a killer kidnaps this guy, he wakes up after being knocked out and his legs had been cut off so he tries to crawl out but is caught and dragged back, meanwhile his friends 4 of them i think, are searching for any clues as to where he is by beating up thugs, criminals, etc for information to find him.
Jan 21, 2009 The film is about 1995-2000 and the ambient is cosmopolitan.A Comedy. I guess is an European film.There are 2 scenes that I remember:- When the star (A bussines man, architect or similar) saw his wife with another guy (a hippie or bohemian) the man left on his bicycle and the main character had to pursue him on a child's bicycle.- Then I remember that he wore a bear costume because he doesn't want be recognized by his wife.- Later he met the bohemian man and he changed his life and taught him to win money and become a bussiness man.
Jan 20, 2009 I saw a movie about 7 years ago on TV, but do not know the name. It was during war times with Germany and the jews and was about a man (whom I thought was Jon Voit but must not have been because I could not find a film that he starred in like that) and his wife and two children (a son and daughter). The father was of rank in the German military and when his son was old enough, he was told that he had to join the military and fight also. The son did not want to join the military and fight, so the father took his son to another country (maybe Switzerland of Czech Rep) to avoid having to joint and fight. The son was able to make it over the fence (border) to safety, but the father was killed. Back home in Germany the daughter was taken prisoner and was questioned and tormented by the Germany military. One of the officers fell in love with her and took her home with him. She became pregnant with his child. He and most of his men were killed shortly afterward in the street by where they were staying by bombing and artillery. She, along with other jews were sent from the country- and she somehow wound up on a boat to New York. A doctor aboard the ship saved her life and cared for her. Later on, her and the doctor were to be married, but the mother of the doctor found out that the child she was carrying was not his and that she was a jew and she made her leave. The doctor was later married to someone else and had a daughter and the lady married a long time friend. Her son and the doctor’s daughter met later on at school and fell in love. The couple saw each other again at the dance for their children. At the end of the movie, the lady went to an art store and found a piece of art work and/or a painting that had belonged to her mother from years before, and found out that her brother (whom she thought was dead had brought it there) and he was in fact the owner of the store and he came out and she knew it was him. It was a great movie, but I did not get to see all of it and have been trying to think of the name of the move ever since so that I could locate it and watch it again. It was probably the best movie I have ever watched.
Jan 18, 2009 This is a Chinese martial arts film that was dubbed into english from perhaps the 1970's or early 1980's. It actually takes place in San Francisco (I think), and it deals with the local Chinese people dealing with racism and bigotry from the native non-Chinese people. Everyone it seems knows kung fu, and there are many kung fu fight scenes between the Chinese and the non-Chinese. I remember there was a little Chinese girl who knew kung fu very well. In an early scene, the little girl and her sister are harassed by local thugs who say they hate the Chinese. Later on, the little girl tells her brother (friend?) what happened and begins to cry. While sobbing, she says, "Why don't they like Chinese people?" I also remember there being Chinese hoodlums who catered to the local non-Chinese thugs. The last scene of the movie shows an all-out kung fu battle between the Chinese and the non-Chinese, with the little Chinese girl taking part.
Jan 13, 2009 I saw a movie in the mid-late 90's on TV in colour in New Zealand. It had some kids/teenagers who had some sort of club thing in the woods. They had a war or fight with some older kids with slingshots and a rabbit ended up getting hit resulting in the bunch of kids waving a white flag so they could save the rabbit. There was also a part where the kids had a tractor and were driving down the road and I remember a kid jumped in the back of it. At the end or near the end of the movie a girl that one of the boys comes over to the boy who is swimming in liek a waterhole thing and climbs in. She asks him if he wants to skinny dip and he agrees, she says he has to go first so he take soff his trunks and gives them to her. She then walks out of the water hole and walks off leaving him there. I also remember one of the kids being kciked out of the club thing in the woods by the rest of the boys for some reason (something to do with the tractor I think?)
Jan 12, 2009 A movie I saw on Showtime (after hours or after dark) probably in the late eighties maybe 88, 89 or 1990, believe it's an american film and the plot is based in america. the scene is this thin blond who is an admiral's (or high ranking official) daughter is somewhat of a slut/temptress who always causes problems is erotically teasing a big black guy through the window and he breaks down the door to have sex with her, i think the house catches on fire or something? it's based during the 1800 i would guess.
Jan 11, 2009 This film was probably 1992-1995 and was about a sons relationship with his mother who comitted suicide by walking in to the Sea when he was younger. Can't remember too much about it but he ended up comitting suicide by driving down the side of a mountain on his motorbike.
Jan 8, 2009 I am trying to find the movie I saw between 1993 and 1998. The movie was on The Movie Network (in Canada) and it was in color. I believe it was an American movie but I cannot confirm that detail. The movie is about a man and a woman that are trying to escape from this big house with a briefcase full of money. To escape the house they must overcome trials in rooms of the house (one of which is a game of chess where the man has to play as one of the pieces, and another is to escape a room that is being flooded). It turns out that the woman is the one who is responsible for all of these trials and just pretends she has no idea of what is going on.
Jan 6, 2009 I believe this film was a 1980's movie and it appeared to be about a mother and her family of boys. The family seemed to live maybe in the country. I just remember alot of trees and like woods maybe. The mother had I believe a stepdaughter or live in girl who she did not like and i think the mother wanted the boys to kill her but each boy became attracted to her and instead she ended up somehow killing each one of them one by one by accident. The "stepdaughter" was a tan, young and blonde. I think one of the boys died by falling in a trap like a hole or something. It was almost like a suspense with a little comedy. It is a colored movie.
Jan 5, 2009 the movie i am looking for is an 80s or very early nineties movie. I do not have much to go on. There is a scene in it towards the end where the "hero" gets locked in a wooden crate and rolled down a beach into a body of water where the villian tries to drown him. This may have happened earlier in the movie too (not too sure) and that person didnt escape. After the hero escapes he goes back up the beach to ahouse and that is when all the conspiriacies of the movie starts to be uncovered. If I remember correctly there are a few twists and turns.
Jan 2, 2009 I saw this movie btween 1990 and 2005, on TV or video. I do not know actor names but i think one of the characters was nick named 'Rat'. He and his brother were oon the police or defence force and their father had been killed years earlier. It was a scifi film set in the future i think and their was this electronic net or grid thing that had some significance but i don't remember what. their was an old guy higher up in the force and i think it may have been him that had something to do with it.
Dec 30, 2008 it was about a rich woman, who had sexual relationship with her accountant, and he used his position to touch her daughter when she asked for money, as her mother told her that she should go and take money from her accountant. the only episode I remember was when she goes to him and asks for money and begin to seduce him, she standing in front of window, but when he grabs her from behind and begin to hug and grab her from behind ( and the scene suggests that he is already prejaculated in his pant )and she begins to refuses and insults him .
Dec 30, 2008 There was this movie I watched as a kid. There was a boy that watched a woman from a hole in the ground. He would watch her and the hole was like a fort. The woman would be swimming in a lake or relaxing.
Dec 30, 2008 Hispanic-themed movie with a drifter who plays guitar, finds a job in a cantina in Mexico or Texas or thereabouts, eventually falls into a steamy affair with the owner's abused wife, who also works at the bar, then they plot to kill the owner, they think he's dead but he survives. I don't think he realizes who tried to kill him, so the plot goes on. Think it's in English, maybe in Spanish?
Dec 28, 2008 a man decides he wants to become a woman and travels around staying in basic rooms, shaving his legs, plucking his eyebrows etc and gradually becoming a woman, and running out of money. i have a feeling, although i'm not certain, that the soundtrack may have contained Lou Reed's walk on the wildside. it was colour and again i would have seen it in the seventies. I also think he may have been played by a woman, and the film started in a supermarket.
Dec 27, 2008 I have been looking for a movie I saw back when I was a child in the early 1990s. It may be a 1980s-1990s film. It was a US movie and might have been a TV movie. The only scene I remember was this boy was being pressured to jump off a bridge, and when he finally did, he hit a log (or something) floating underneath and became paralyzed.
Dec 25, 2008 There was this action, fighter jet movie that there are these pilots are being trained and one of them is very talented and the call him the black eagle (dark angel? - me)or something like that (I dnt remember) and this man later in the movie packs his jet with real bombs and equipments and on a training practice he chalenges his team mates with real weapons and actually kill them. this movies shouldnt be older than 10-12 years.
Dec 20, 2008 Movie I saw I believe in 1997 or there abouts. I saw it on Bravo TV in Canada.Basic premise from what I remember was a women has an unmarried relation with a man. They have sex on a chair (not shown in great detail. More implied than anything). She gets pregnant and her father finds out. He sends her out of the home and away from the family away in a box. She later gets out and wonders around meeting a few people before giving birth in a flood of some kind. The movie is filled with artistic dancing and from what I remember, the only speaking was a narrative done by a child claimed to be the son of the woman. A story of how he came to be I guess. I think the woman was wearing a red or orange dress/outfit of some kind that had a tie belt like a robe of some kind.
Dec 18, 2008 A British movie that was several different vignettes in one man's life. Black and White and probably from the late 60's or early 70's. It starts with him in boy's school getting bullied by classmates and then punished by his teacher. I didn't get to see the rest but heard that in his adult life (one of the later vignettes) he has some strange psychosexual perversions.
Dec 16, 2008 There was a movie that I'm pretty sure came out in the early 90s though it may have been very late 80s. I'd say anywhere from 88-96 is the most likely time period. It's been a very long time since I saw it, but what I can remember of the plot is that a woman commit suicide by slitting her wrists in the bathtub. She had very, very dark eyes I remember that clearly. As the movie progresses he sees what looks like her ghost only he comes to find out the the "ghost" is a live woman. I seem to remember that she was paid by the suicide girl's mother to make his life miserable or something like that and that the suicide was because the girl was pregnant. That last might be a little off though. The biggest thing I remember is the girl with very, very dark eyes and the whole fake ghost thing. Pretty sure this was an early 90s movie.
Dec 5, 2008 Short film from between roughly 1985-88. Often shown between movies on The Movie Channel. About young high-school boy with crush on girl. Takes place in school library and his friends tell him to take her to a movie - which I swear is called Sweet Surrender. Which I also swear is the name of the short film. Anyway he daydreams about the date and its a nice little movie.
Nov 30, 2008 Around 1977-1979, I remember a TV movie (I think HBO) where a man who married into corporate money sailed away with different women to a secluded island. One woman loved it so much, she sunk the sail boat. The corporate wife searched for the husband, and found a woman photographer who had been taking photos of the husband with each woman while sailing away. The husband was found.
Nov 30, 2008 I believe this movie was probably made in or set in the 60s. All I remember is that there was a woman, possibly an actress, who was in a large glass tank of water. The glass tank shattered & the woman was paralyzed.
Nov 28, 2008 Not Norma Rae - I saw a movie on cable in about 1991 in a New York City hotel. It wasset in the 1970s and was about a working-class woman (she had blond hair)and I'm not sure about this but I'm thinking she might have worked at abottling company and she was learning about union organizing and throughthis she started becoming more aware of her rights as a woman and she hadthis boyfriend who wasn't understanding where she was coming from and it wasvery painful for her to have to leave him to find herself. It was a colorfilm set in the USA.
Nov 28, 2008 I saw this film when i was young. It must have been in the late 80's. It was an animation and it was about a prince who when he was born was given a boy heart and a girl heart by mistake, so looked girly but was a boy. Weird i know. He had a little blond friend who was annoying. Pengasus is in it, and the blonde boy wants to have pegasus, so he tries to capture him but ends up getting the prince in trouble and pegasus has to teach the prince a lesson by flinging gold rings at him and pinning him on the floor. I am pretty sure they had american accents but it looks like chinese animation, in colour. I think i had it on video cause i remember watching it a lot.
Nov 26, 2008 I am looking for the title of a movie which I only have seen one scene of.I saw that scene when I was about 6-8ish, so the movie would have to have been before 1987/8I believe the movie to have been a thriller/horror movie of some sortIn this scene there is teh interior of a house, there is a living room and/or a dining room of some sort.There is a man there - I believe that he might have been a threatening character, and that it was not his house. I remember him as being pretty large, shaggy, ill-kempt and sort of 'street person' looking. He goes to a bowl of fruit on a table and takes a fruit (I think that it might have been an apple) and eats it.I believe that he then goes and falls asleep (or passes out) on a chair or couch in this living room, giving me at that age the idea that the fruit had been drugged or poisoned.At some point I think that there is a female character who has a boyfriend, and that the boyfriend and this character get into a physical fight.
Nov 23, 2008 b&w film about man kidnapped put in trunk he later remembers hearing geese flying over uses that to try to locate where he was held escaped thru a swamp with donkey mule something about mule would stop when he said go and go when he said stop maybe a scene man being chased thru park and taking horse away from police officer.I think film made in the 50`s or 60`s
Nov 23, 2008 I'm looking for a horror movie, in color, that's made before 1983. I do not recall any of the actors' names, but I saw it on television in Taiwan so it might have been much older than 1983 (and could be a TV movie). It was about a woman finding out that there are a lot of people that are actually clones (or doubles). I can't remember if the doppelgangers were killing off their counterparts, but I do remember the woman being rescued at the end of the movie, and we find out that the driver (or paramedic) in the ambulance is her double!
Nov 21, 2008 this movie was probably made in the early 80's. it was about a wife who tried to get her blind or paralyzed husband killed. The wife alibi was that she was going out of town. I think. i think the husband got injured in the war.
Nov 21, 2008 I saw this movie 2 years ago. It was about people in a house that were stuck and could not get out. They had to be out by midnight or else they would die. In the movie i specifically remember the time being 11:55. I think, yet not too sure, the house was by a lake and had a barn.
Nov 21, 2008 "sometimes they come back" is nowhere near the movie I'm looking for. I know that movie very well and it's not what I'm trying to find. The only detail I have is that it appeared to be a group a young followers that had a leader on a motorcycle. I remember the man looked undead and he pulled his head off his shoulders. In that scene it was night time and cold as you could see his breath. This was defiantly set late '80's to possibly early '90's in color. Now that I think about it, it just had that Stephen King type feel to it.
Nov 20, 2008 it may be in the 80s or 90s but i only saw a small portion. hope this helps:Its a guy that meets a girl and she grants him a wish of making love to a girl he likes and she is asian. and you see the love making ( this is the nudity part im not shure of) and later in the movie the girl that granted him the wish appears on a tv screen in an office while a guy make love to a girl on his desk and the girl in the screen is mad and tells him to stop. i think shes a genie or i dont know. i saw this on tv a long time ago maybe a while too and i think its was on the tmn movie network.
Nov 19, 2008 It's an American TV movie, definitely eighties, probably mid-to late eightties. It' a relationship / romatic drama. It's about two people who try to have a relationship without having sleeping together and the film is about their attempt to have a romantic friendship without sleeping together. The female lead works as a medical research assitant (seen in her place of work in a white medical uniform). None of the actors are big names from the period. The male lead is in a relationship in the begining. His girlfriend is very needy/immature and they break up half way through the film. She creates very childish clay figures and at some point in the film the male lead shows the female lead all the clay figures which are stored in a kitchen cupboard. The male and the female lead go on a number of dates and the main story is really about trying to be friends and have a relationship without sleeping together. At the end of the film, they finally end up in bed together and the film ends.
Nov 17, 2008 I am trying to find a movie I saw on tv sometime between 1975 and 1978 (I think). The only thing I can tell you about it is that most of the movie seemed to be mostly a sililoquy that took place in a prison cell by a lone inmate. He spent the majority of the movie in just a pair of briefs. I'm pretty certain the actor was Bill Bixby, but I've not been able to find anything by him, so I could be wrong.
Nov 16, 2008 I saw this movie on French TV (may have been Radio Canada, too young to remember) in the late 60's or early 70's; I am not sure if it was originally an English movie. The movie begins with a Sexy lady in a bikini,using some martial arts, to fight a few men near a pool & one man alone in a cabin/house. The movie revolves around this main Female actress, some other lady agents, & her male partners. I think the movie involves them trying to find some Gold or Diamonds. In one of the scenes she comes in from the top of a train & Drugs a guy with truth serum in order to find out where the gold is hidden. I remember one other scene where she's found unconsciuos in a burning building by her partners who come to rescue her.
Nov 14, 2008 I believe this movie was on Cinemax around the late 80's or early 90's. It was in color, and for some reason I believe the word "Night" may have been in the title. It was about a husband and wife that are independently seduced by a man and a woman. In the end they figure out they are being manipulated and they work together to stop whatever the manipulators were trying to accomplish, blackmail, or whatever. 2 scenes really stick out in my mind: The first one is when the wife goes with the man she is cheating with to a place where there are 2 or 3 other women in a room in front of a glass window. They are all handcuffed and a man chooses one at random to have sex with in front of the men that have paid for them to be there. She is not chosen, but just after this, outside the man fingers her by the car. The other scene is where the man shows up at her house and has dinner with her and her husband and he has brought her sister as his date. He then has sex with her outside the kitchen window and they are able to see her husband and sister through the window while they do it outside.
Nov 11, 2008 Mongolian film, young man, leaves home, goes to the city. Mid 90's? Video jacket was mainly blue.
Nov 10, 2008 This movie is an 80's horror movie where a guy goes into a basement where there is a holding cell/tank where there is a demon or evil spirit inside. The man came down to basically taunt the demon that you cannot see. The demon was looking out of a window from the holding cell and everything is red in the demon's vision. Someone else comes down to the room and decided to open the tank. The demon is freed and kills the person who opened it up and then goes through the house or place he is being kept and goes on a rampage.
Nov 10, 2008 This is a cartoon from the 80's and it is about a cat and a mouse. The story revolved around the concept that a special breed of cats were made to eat a special breed of mouse. It showed cats invading a mouse city and basically saying that all the cats ate all the mice in a black and white flashback kind of animation. The story showed that there were only one special cat and one special mouse left in the world. The mouse knew it was his destiny to be eaten by the cat but he didn't want it to happen so he ran away but the cat eventually caught up to him and was like, you know I have to eat you right. The end had the mouse on a dinner plate and the cat ready to eat him but the mouse said something like hey you know you don't have to eat me just because that's the way it's always been so why don't we be friends. The cat agreed and it showed them hanging out together.
Nov 10, 2008 This is a cartoon that must be made from 1970-1988. It seemed japanese animeish and it was in color and very short. I think it may have been in with a series of other cartoons like the little match girl, the three little pigs, ect. Anyway, it was about 2 younger bears that were brothers and they were walking around a large bit of wilderness that seemed to be their kingdom. I think there was something about a stream of water that maybe provided them with food or something possibly like the land of milk and honey type of thing perhaps. Their mother told them not to quarrel with each other or they would be lost forever or something bad was going to happen to them or they would never be able to see their mother again. The bears were out playing one day and they started fighting and wrestling and something happened that made no sense: it showed a crystal "chandelier" object fall and shatter in the woods. The bears realized they were wrong for fighting but it was too late and they had to accept they penalty for their actions and it showed them looking unhappy walking in the forest and then there was a sad song playing in the end.
Nov 10, 2008 The movie had to be before 1986 but I probably saw it around 1984 or 1985. I think it was a VHS rental but possibly a movie seen from TV satellite dish. It was color. Teenage or college girls were held captive by some guy. He had them as prisoners in one room and would come in and choose one to take to another room. In that room he chased them around and caught them and ripped their clothes until they were in their underwear. I'm not sure if they were raped or not. One of the girl's boyfriend was riding a motorbike and was on the way to save them but (possibly by a booby trap) his motorbike flipped and he fell down a cliff.
Nov 8, 2008 I'm looking for a movie I saw on TCM in the 90's. I was a black and white and I think it was from the 30's or 40's. There is this poor composer trying to write an opera and he and his wife live in a tenement type house and have no money. I think they are Polish or Russian or something. Eventually he meets this wealthy girl who sponsors him and he leaves his wife and works on his symphony. Later he realizes he's still in love with his wife but he can't find her so he writes the symphony about her and plays it to see if she'll hear it and come find him. Eventually she hears it and starts to run off but he catches her and they get back together.
Nov 6, 2008 1) The scene from the film has a young boy/girl entering (sleepwalking) into his parents bedroom to find them crucified on their bedroom wall. That's all the information I have on the specific film. I was in colour and I'm sure it was an American film.2) The only other clue I have is from friend who said that he remembers this too, and that he remembers seeing it on British television in the late 1970s/early 1980s (1978/1979/1980/1981). He seems to think it was shown as part of a triple bill of Horror. The other 2 films that were shown were 'La Cabina' and 'The Crazies'.
Nov 3, 2008 I saw this film or TV-series episode on American television no later than the 1970s, perhaps as early as the mid-to late-1960s. The plot is classic noir: a man is shot and killed by (I presume) his girlfriend because he "done her wrong". I think maybe the title has the word "Champion" in it, but I have been unsuccessful searching for that word. I recall something about table-tennis or ping-pong; perhaps one of the characters was a table-tennis professional(?!), or just a tennis pro. The man who was killed reminded me very much of someone like Mickey Rooney or Dick Van Patten or Elisha Cook Jr., short and not that attractive. One of the key scenes has the man and woman facing off in a room--she is sitting down and holding a pistol in her lap with both hands; she shoots him in the gut and he falls down dead. A couple of the woman's friends (a man and a woman, I think) come in and look for something to dispose of the body in; they consider using a large steamer-like trunk but it has the woman's initials on it. The friends hide the body in a large trunk or box and weigh it down so it will sink in the ocean. The last scene I remember is water leaking from the box or trunk, so you know that the police have found it and that the "jig is up" for the woman.
Nov 2, 2008 I saw this on U.S. television sometime between the late the 80's to mid 90's. It was a live-action, color, English language Christmas family movie involving Santa Claus and a couple of children (possibly brother & sister). It seems as though I remember something involving a hot air balloon trip across the country and also some guy planting a bomb in an airport - or a similar crowded place. I also remember a scene with the mother calculating up something on some sort of paper printing calculator/adding machine.
Oct 28, 2008 i am looking for the movie based on the book "silver rose" by david a. kaufelt. i know it exist, but i have been searching for ages now and cant find it any where. maybe the movie has a different name than the book. on the cover of the book, it looks a lot like the actors "cybill shepherd" and "robert redford", but i am not 100% sure. i also think that the movie is from the '80 but not for sure.the plot:silver rose by david a kaufelt. a painful and romantic novel set mostly in berlin and paris, 1938, about a man who refused to be cowed by the possibilities of evil and of his daughter torn by the impossiblities of love, when she falls into the protective arms of a man whose impeccable german pedigree and impregnable standing in the nazi party afford her an otherwise unattainable degree of security. silver rose is an unforgettable portrait of a man and a woman caught up in the maelstrom of thier times.
Oct 27, 2008 This was a movie I saw on cable TV - probably Showtime or HBO - in the early 1980's. There was this chick with long, straight brown hair. At one point she was riding a motorcycle with a scoped rifle slung over her back - if I remember correctly, she took somebody out at distance with it.The money shot, though, was her visiting her male friend in prison. The dude in question collected cash from the other prisoners in the visiting area. Having paid, the guys were given a "show" by the girlfriend who commenced to playing with herself.Definitely a Rated R movie
Oct 26, 2008 I saw a movie in the 80's (early part probably) about a french girl who had came to america with family (?) and she had witnessed something hoorible and refused to talk. It was set in New York i believe, and there was a little boy that lived in the same apartment building and was possibly jewish and his mother made him go play with her everyday. finally she started using her dolls to "talk" and then she started talking and they became great friends. but one day he was with her and got into a fight, and when she saw the blood she went back to the catatonic state.
Oct 25, 2008 I saw this on cinemax in the mid-nineties. A woman in her early twenties with long blond hair shows up at her step-dad's house who maybe is not her step-dad and she tries to seduce his girlfriend in the shower and her dad and she stabs a handyman in the middle of a having sex with her. Her dad's girlfriend has short dark hair and doesn't appreciate her appearing on their doorstep in the rain. It's a very good very bad movie as I recall.
Oct 23, 2008 This movie was made in the 70's or 80's. The woman lives on the beach and is having an affair with an older married man. They have a baby together and there is one scene where the girl goes to the grocery store and runs into the wife. Also, the woman is an artist. I had it in my head that it was Lindsey Wagner as the lead character, but have done extensive searches and have come up with nothing.
Oct 22, 2008 A long time ago, maybe 10 years roughly (in 1998), I saw a soft core movie on Showcase and now I can't find it. I do not remember very much. It starred a brunette, from what I remember she was a little on the older side. I distinctly remember a scene where she seduced a young construction worker (i think thats what he was.not sure) by offering him a drink and then spilling it on his pants on purpose. She eventually takes him to the basement and rides him.on a chair (cant remember if it was on a chair for sure). I also vaguely remember that she was trying to seduce her neighbour, a woman as well. I think that even at the time I watched it, it may have been a vintage film, 70's or 80's, but again am not sure.
Oct 21, 2008 I saw this film in 1999 or 2000. It was black and white, and as far as i could tell was probably made in the 60's or early 70'sFamily moves into a really old wood house in the woods (no neighbors of course). A couple and a little boy and girl.In one scene they're eating dinner and stuff in the dining room starts flying around and i think the lights go out.At one point the two kids are in their room and the rocking horse starts to rock by itself slowly and eventually rocks really fast. Then the closet door flies open and theres a brick wall behind it with a small hole and a light shining thru. The hole gets bigger throughout the film and the witch that seems to be haunting the family takes the girl through the hole to another freaky dimension.Towards the end, the witch chases the whole family about the house. They eventually get out and the witch is trapped inside and I'm pretty sure the house sets on fire and burns down.Even a hint at the name would be helpful! It was rented from a blockbuster, hollywood video or something like that if that helps :)
Oct 21, 2008 This short film was a cartoon from anywhere from 1940-1980. This movie is NOT The adventures of mr. toad and ichabod crane. It was in color and it was a story about the headless horseman, and 2 other characters. The only parts I remember were the main characters walking up a big hill/mountain to reach the headless horseman's cabin. There were a couple things that happened on the way up the hill such as a scarecrow messes with them I think and a few other scary things. When they finally got to the cabin, they go in and the headless horseman is gone and they start messing around with stuff inside and the main character ends up turning into the headless horseman for some reason because he drinks some potion that was brewing in vials. Eventually the real headless horseman comes back to the cabin and chases everyone and then I forget the rest.
Oct 20, 2008 hello i saw a movie in late 60 early 70 , about some people living under water, and dimonds were eveywere, but once they took those dimonds to the surface they turn into coffe or dirt,
Oct 16, 2008 I remember watching an old FRENch B&W (i think) film with English subtitles (i think) about a sort of old building on the top of I cliff - at least I think it was - or it was in amongst sand dunes - there was a man having sex in this building and I think they were getting spied on regularly by a girl.
Oct 16, 2008 I saw this movie in the mid 1980's on HBO or another cable channel. I believe it was made in the early to mid 80's.The movie's time period is the 1930's or 40's. The characters are American and live in America. I do not remember any character names or actors' names.The plot:There is a pretty young woman (looks like Natassia Kinski or Pamela Sue Martin, if I remember correctly) who has a few boyfriends, but does not get too serious with them. One boy goes off to war and I think she promises to wait for him. When he returns they get married. She wants to have children. He obviously loves her and, in fact, is totally obsessed with her. She has never been with a man, so there she is on her wedding night hoping all the waiting was worth it. But he doesn't do anything. He doesn't touch her. She blames herself. Months go by, maybe even a couple of years. They attend baby showers for friends and she looks sad. Everyone asks her when they will have children. Her friends start to assume she can not have children. One day she accidentally sees her husband having a few moments of intimacy all by himself. She's very happy because that means he is able. So she confronts him, with happiness, but he still doesn't do anything with her. She eventually meets a sleezy man, a salesman or something. They have a fling. He is absolutely stunned to discover she is a virgin.She becomes pregnant from the fling. All of her friends are happy for her but they assume her husband is the baby's father. Her husband does not accuse her publicly, because he doesn't want anyone to know he could not be the father.But he leaves her or something, I can't quite remember. The last scene is in a bar with a bunch of ne'er do wells sitting around a table telling tall tales. The husband is there. The sleezy salesman is also there, though they do not know eachother. The salesman tells his tale of the married woman he met years before whose husband had never touched her. I have searched the movies of Nastassia Kinski and Pamela Sue Martin, but I guess it was not either one of them since I can't find it.HELP. I figure it was made in the early 80's since it was on cable in the mid to late 80's.
Oct 13, 2008 Friend at work was trying to remember this movie he watched over and over when he was younger. Only thing he could remember was that it was about a boy who's parents were killed at a red light by a tractor trailer, on purpose he thinks. After the boy gets out of the hospital he takes revenge. He drives a car that has spikes that stick out from the wheels, and we believe the car was green. We're thinking it's from the '80's but could be very early '90's.
Oct 11, 2008 I am trying to find a film that I saw on VHS about 10 years ago. The film was Asian and about a young boy and an old man and the man has to take the boy back to his parents or grandparents over a road-trip kind of movie.I am unsure if the boys parents were killed and thats why the man has to take the boy or what?!?!?Along the way there are two others who are trying to mug or steal from the man and their plans go wrong everytime, with them normally ending up with a beating. I think they both end up in a bin at one point.In one scene I can remember the man and boy are at a swimming pool but the man cannot swim so he puts on about 20 rubber inflateavle rings to keep him afloat.
Oct 10, 2008 I saw this film on British television somewhere between 1980 and no later than 1984, my Dad says we watched it in the afternoon so it may have been a kids film although I can't remember what time it was on. The film has stuck with me for 25 years and was just very sad, and all I have is some images and themes. I think the film was either in black and white or very muted colour, there was the ghost of a little girl (possibly with blonde ringlets, white dress), a mine shaft or a well, and someone was looking down the mine shaft/well for her bones (possibly so she could rest in peace). I think the mine shaft/well was very unstable and at risk of collapse, but there may have been clues to her being down there as they got further down the shaft. They do find her bones at the bottom of the shaft. I seem to recall something to do with a car. I've looked at 'Mystery Mansion' and 'The Glass Child' and I don't think it was either of these films.
Oct 10, 2008 I saw a movie on tv back in the 70's. It was black and white. I remember very little from the movie, except that it scared the heck outta me. It starred a woman who had dark hair and a facial mole. It seems there were some mirrors upstairs, and at the end of the movie there was something about a little girl, whether it was her daughter or her baby sister, I'm not sure, but something had happened to the little girl years ago.
Oct 4, 2008 I'm looking for a movie I saw on SBS between 2005-2008. I saw in on a free to air TV channel in Australia called "SBS". It looked like it was made after at least 1995, maybe newer. It was in colour. I don't have any character names, only some plot:An slobbish kind of male is hooked up (by subtle trickery, or a dating service, I can't remember which) with a girl who then reports back to the company she works for. It is very similar to the Truman show, but I think this movie was German or Dutch. Anyway, the guy's apartment is bugged and his activities are aired as a TV show, and also all his views and opinions on clothes, games, cars etc are put into practise in the shops. Eventually he finds out about the show/the trick with the girl, and rips apart his home to get rid of the bugs. Then he changes his mind, and signs a deal with the company so that he can earn money from the show. He tries to get the girl back, but she refuses (I think).
Oct 4, 2008 I'm looking for the name of what I think is German movie (maybe Dutch or similar.). I saw it on SBS (an Australian free to air TV channel which mostly plays foreign movies). Period of the movie: modern. I think it was made between 1995 and 2007 (I saw it in 2007). The movie is in colour. I pretty much only know the plot, no character names sorry :(A guy (who seems to have a lot of money, and lives in a studio) picks up woman walking the street in his car, brings her back to his studio. There is some confusion as to whether the woman is a prostitute or not. They have sex. They eat sushi. There is a LOT of 'mind game' conversation where she is looking for genuine interest on his part. She steals from his wallet, then attempts to leave. He stop her leaving. She has a bath. then it goes weird. He finds her in the bath with her wrists slashed open. He panics and decides to bury her, but she is still alive. He can't finish burying her so he goes inside. She revives, and (can't remember how) ends up back in the apartment. Then she decides to leave and says she'll walk home, but he finally extends some 'niceness' towards her and offers her a lift. They talk while he is driving her home. He still offers to pay for the night. She takes the money, but throws it out the car window. Then he says something which offends her, so she yanks on the steering wheel which causes them to crash. I believe she dies (she exits the car through the windscreen). He stumbles out of the car in shock and sees the body. It is definitely an art/shock movie of some sort. Not easy to 'digest', but beautifull portrayed the fragile state of both the participants in the story.
Oct 1, 2008 I am looking for this movie but I dont know the name of it. I will buy it if I can find it. 3 men are on a yellow raft in the middle of the ocean fighting to the death. 2 of them end up fighting into the water and then one survives and tries to jump back into the raft to fight the last guy and the one that is in the raft remaining kills the other guy and now the other 2 are dead and he is left alone.
Oct 1, 2008 I am looking for the movie based on the book "Silver Rose" by David A. Kaufelt. I know it exist, but I have been searching for ages now and cant find it any where. Maybe the movie has a different name. On the cover of the book, it looks a lot like the actors "Cybill Shepherd" and "Robert Redford", but I am not a 100% sure. I also think that the movie is from the '80.
Sep 28, 2008 I am trying to find an eighties movie i believe it was around 1987 or 1988. It was on tv when i seen it and it was in color. In the begining this boy was sitting on a boat with his dad and they was fishing and his dad gives him a watch and tells the boy that his father gave it to him when he was a boy. The boys dad dies in the begining of the movie and the boy loses the watch. He ends up running away from home to find the watch and finds it in a pawn shop. His mom and sister are searching for him, and i can't remember how long he was gone, but he comes back home and his mom asks him all kinds of questions about where he was but the boy doesnt answer her so she calls the doctor and he checks the boy over and says he is fine and that he just has amnesia, but the boy is just faking he just didnt want his mom to know where he was cause he had lost his dads watch.
Sep 26, 2008 Very vague memory of a 60's maybe 70's spy, or cold war or espionage film set in Russia or Germany, not sure; could also be Nazi film; I just remember one scene that really struck me, was very intense of this spy? or prisoner of some type trying to escape. He sticks his finger in a light socket and shorts out the bulb in the cell? or holding area where they were keeping him. Actor's reaction to electrocuting his finger is really intense; finger turns black; extremely suspensful movie. Can't remember if this was to help him escape or to keep authorities from learning precious state secrets or what.
Sep 25, 2008 I saw a movie on TV as a child that I think was from the '40s or maybe '50s. If I remember correctly, it was about child neglect/abuse and the community activists couldn't get the parents prosecuted since at that time there were no laws protecting children. So they got creative and asked the judge to prosecute under animal welfare laws, claiming the child, at the very minimum was an animal deserving protection!
Sep 21, 2008 I'm searching for a black & white episode that I saw, most likely in the late 50's or 1960's. All I can recall is the ending in which a young boy (disenchanted with life at home) is staring at a painting of a 1800's sailing ship on the wall. With deep concentration, he finally sees the ship and waves moving. In the next scene his parents are looking for him, but he has vanished. As they climb the stairs to the bedrooms the camera focuses in on the painting & you see the painting again coming to life, with the boy in the painting, aboard the ship. I've searched Twighlight Zone, One Step Beyond, & Alfred Hitchcock Presents, but thus far without any luck.
Sep 21, 2008 I believe I saw it in the mid to late 70's maybe early 80's, it was shown on television in color, all i remember was this kid went accross the river and found a girl and her family and the story was about them, and then towards the end of the show the girl died. The girl had dark hair, and I remember her telling the boy that everyone has so many steps they can take in their life so take big steps.
Sep 20, 2008 This is a short film that might have aired on HBO or USA, perhaps HBO Short Takes~anywhere from the mid-Seventies to the Eighties, when they needed to fill space between movies. In it, a boy plays a Simon-style light game and becomes obsessed with it. I believe that his father has a talk with him about it, and the boy explains that, when he gets it right, he will go "somewhere else" or "somewhen", perhaps the title of the film. We simply cannot recall what he says. Eventually, he does get it right, and he disappears as the father is watching! The final scene is the father seated on the floor, the game in his lap, frantically trying to learn how it works so that he can follow his son. I've checked sites for the actual Simon game, but none of them has a reference to this short film. We do not recall the actors though I keep thinking of a Bruce Davison type, which could be completely wrong.
Sep 19, 2008 I saw a coming attraction either 2006 or 2007 on blockbuster movie dvd. Color movie Middle Eastern Most of it took place in desert Families lived in underground location in desert People(bad guys; mob type maybe) broke into home and tore family members away from one another THe scene had no words, therefore I assume it was in a different lanuage Seemed like most of the movie consist of hidden families trying to stay alive perhaps hiding from government Movie seemed to have dark color tone Drama/suspense lot of action (fighting for family)
Sep 18, 2008 This might be a TV movie (maybe true story type of movie). A woman and her husband are in the mountains hiking or something. He either gets hurt or killed or just separated from her and she is left to take care of herself. She is pregnant and gives birth alone. I believe there is snow at one point.
Sep 16, 2008 All I remember is this one scene at the end of the film where a man is about to hang himselfstanding on a chair. He either has a flashback or something and changes his mind or maybehears an answerphone message, or maybe hears the dog barking, but he changes his mind.While he is about to remove the noose his faithful friend the dog jumps up and accidently knocksover the chair, killing him.
Sep 14, 2008 It was back in the 90's I believe, it was on T.V. what is now "not sure what it was then" The Hallmark Channel. It was a movie in color, about a guy "I believe" who had just come back from war, or was still away at war. Anyway the only part I really remember that stood out was he found this girl in what looked like an abandoned house, and she was in a closet. She was very scared and the closer he came the more she backed up. I don't think either one of them spoke each other's languages and I believe she was from one of the Asian Countries.
Sep 12, 2008 I am pretty sure I am looking for an episode of the American TV series "Melrose Place". The only scene I remember is when one of the male characters comes to the apartment of one of the female characters (Amanda?) to fix a broken shower. When he is in the shower working on the plumbing, she turns on the water (by accident or by design?) and soaks his clothes. I presume this led to !
Sep 9, 2008 i am looking for this teen movie from the 1990s. It is similar to the movie Airborne (1993). In this movie a teenager raised in india of american parents is orphaned. When his father passes away he moves to california and lives with family. The boy becomes a i believe a surfer it was very similar to airborne (1993) but im pretty sure its not the same film also the boy has a indian name in the movie and when he goes to the new school in california there is a scene where he holds his breath underwater in the school swimming pool for like 8 or 9 minutes by doing yoga.
Sep 8, 2008 I saw this film, or rather a long musical cartoon in colour, when I was very young 18ish years ago (1990) as I used to have it on tape. I can only remember some scenes but the story has something to do with going back in time. I vividly remember the actual going back through time involving a tunnel with clocks swirling around the walls. I believe that the plot involved getting stuck in maybe the american 70s, where diners sold banana sundaes and people said that's so hot instead of that's cool (or vice versa?) and got on the table tops to dance and sing. It's definatly a childrens movie maybe 90ish minutes long.
Sep 5, 2008 I watched this film about 8 years ago but I have no idea what date it was out! I know it was in colour and I watched it on the television not in the cinema. Normal television that is not anything like cable or sky. I must admit there isnt much I remember about it but I have never forgotten the film itself! It was about a young lad who was a victim of bullys and in one scene they tie him to a chair and throw him into a pool. Another time they tie him to a round about and set it on fire. Also at the end he has brain damage. I cant remember if they tie him to the roundabout before or after he has brain damage. I cried for days after this film and vowed as a child to never watch it again but 8 years later I think Im ready and really want to find it.
Sep 4, 2008 it was a very old movie. i was about 4 or 5 when i last watched it. I remember a boy and girl being chased by these hairy monsters. the boy and girl go through a tunnle and escape on a raft.i remember the boy was wearing brown tights (robin hood look a like) and i think the girl was wearing a pink if not white dress.
Sep 3, 2008 i'm looking for a movie set in new york city in the 1990's the only scene i can remember from the movie is the spanish or mexican man going to his friends house and ends up shooting him and as he shoots him his friends girlfriend comes into the room and sees him so he decides he has to kill her to and she says she wont tell but he doesnt want to take his chances so he shoots her to. I think this movie was about some mexican gang but i'm not sure.
Sep 3, 2008 does anyone know the name of the movie 1980's 1990's were this younger guy is talking to a girl in the hall of an apartment building and this white guy i think he was a teacher or reporter visiting one of the tenants in the ran down apt buildin interupts him and embarrases him in front of the girl so he tells the leader of his gang who sets out to find the man somewhere who is now hiding somewhere in the building trying to escape the building without being caught by the gang
Sep 2, 2008 I saw this series of short tales on Cinemax I believe during the early 90's. One of the tales was set during the medieval period in which a couple of women were competing for the farm hands. One of the women had an over-bite with brown hair and the other women was of a lower class in the manor, but was an attractive brunette. The farm hand was able to seduce one of the women in a hay loft which made the other woman jealous. The jealous woman got her revenge by having the other girl whipped. The short tales were composed of people wearing period dress, sort of low cut english maid servant dresses and the farm had over-hauls. The characters spoke in formal english. There were many such tales as this was a series, all episodes I believe were 30 minutes or so long.
Sep 1, 2008 This a short story episode probably from the 70's. I think it aired on The Night Gallery, Alfred Hitchcock Presents,Tales from the Darkside or something similar. It was about a boy who always got in trouble at school. I want to say, the things he got in trouble for, other students caused by picking on him and teasing him. His teacher would make him go up to the blackboard and write sentances on the board. I really can't remember too much beyond that. I do remember in the end, he walked in the classroom straight to the blackboard and started writing, "I must not push Johnny down the stairs. I must not push Johnny down the stairs. " (or something very similar to that)
Aug 26, 2008 This movie is about a young man in a small town who is in a local bar and gets into an argument wiht the town bully. He later shoots and kills the bully. The towns people start bringing him gifts and the bully's girlfriend tells him she is now his responsibility. His girlfriend gets pregnant and he marries her. He keeps one of the gifts (a pig) from the townspeople as a pet.The wife cooks the pig. He later kills her and buries her in the back yard. The local mafia like guys take out contracts with him to kill who they want killed. This film was on charter communications in July 2008. I think it was on demand.
Aug 26, 2008 I think it was a british indie film that aired on channel 4 about 4 girls who go to a country house for one of their birthdays. The girl who's birthday it is ends up being an evil cow who did things like tell everyone about her friend's abortion, and slept with the guy her other friend liked. Either way, the third friend decided to take revenge on her by spiking her champagne with acid and making her think that she is dead by pouring rat's blood on her. In the end the girl goes mad and accidently slits her throat on a window that got broken.
Aug 12, 2008 Very strange film from the 1970s. It's French, maybe French Canadian. A man finds a dead woman in the snow near his remote farmhouse. She was shot. He brings her inside, blows cigarette smoke over her, and brings her back to life. She seems to have no memory of how she died. This being a French film, they then proceed to have very hot sex. Then the man throws a party and everyone (don't know where the people came from) is smoking, drinking, and talking philosophy. There's a very strange man at the party - I don't believe he was an actor but a real crazy person the director put in the film - starts talking, in English, about how Jesus Christ is a drop of sweat of God's testicles while God is having sex with someone or something. It was shocking, yes, but also weird because the guy was clearly nuts and what he was talking about had nothing to do with the movie or the plot. Then, later in the film, the man and woman start talking about what they're going to do when the killer who murdered the woman comes back, which they're sure will happen eventually. The pace of the film was ungodly slow with lots of scenes that ran on way too long and lots of silence. A great deal of it looked improvised.
Aug 6, 2008 It was shown in the early 2000ish, (could be earlier). Basicly its about an American criminal who goes to jail and shares a cell with this lifer who decides to share this big job with the main man (ice cube I think). The job is just a robbery but its a big one and it all goes wrong as everyone else who gets in on the act wants to rip the other person off. It was a funny film or so I think it was. Im sure he was wareing a dressing down all the way through.
Aug 6, 2008 I've had an ending film stuck in my head for years but have no idea what it is from. I watched it on TV in the UK in the late 80's, early 90's. It was American, in colour, probably made in the 80's, although possible it was 70's. A man (the actor is middle aged, tall, brown hair, slim build) has been missing from his home town for some years, when he returns, he finds his home and the land surrounding it has been turned into an amusement park, with swimming pools and water slides. He is deshevelled, wearing a dirty white shirt and trousers. He becomes distraut when an attendant will not let him enter the park through the turnstile, possibly because of his appearance or because he has no money. He starts to shout at the young attendant, shouting "This is my house, let me in" He starts to grab the turnstile and shake it in an attempt to jump over it. People around him, mostly parents and kids (wearing trunks, swimsuits- queuing to go swimming). Look at him as if he is mad. Then an older fat man in trunks recognizes the main character, and says its been many years since he last saw him "But you look just the same",he tells him to calm down and pays the entrance fee for him. There is an emphasis that the man must have been wealthy at some point. But now he looks upon him with pity and indicates to the attendant that he is nuts.The man races through the entrance, pushing through more queues of people: angry parents yell at him. Two more attendants in white t-shirts and shorts follow him. He runs through some wooded area away from the noise, all the time mumbling to himself. He is making his way up a hill. He passes a disused tennis court, he knows as his own. it is full of leaves. He comes to a white wooden house. It is abandoned, broken windows,cracking paint, etc. But he races in through some porch doors. He runs through the empty house from room to room calling for his wife and kids."I'm home" "I'm back" "Where are you?" There is silence.Everything is empty and still, except for the gray net curtains billowing in the windows. He notices a cardboard box, and opens it to find framed photos of his family. He cries out and falls to his knees. I'm not sure if the pictures signify that his family have given up hope of him coming back, if they are dead and that more time has elapsed than he realizes (it is possible he has remained the same age as when he left). There is a great sense of despair. This is where the film ends. Leaving the man on his own in the room, it pans out back down the hill, kids laughing and splashing about.This snippet has haunted me for years, its not particularly scary, but the sense of loss and fear is quite overwhelming.I've remembered it for so long i begin to wonder if it is a film or if i dreamed it. It will be reassuring if someone else has seen it. :)
Aug 5, 2008 It's one of those castaway, stranded on an uninhabited island movies. The difference is that he went there intentionally to escape going to prison for some crime. I am thinking that it may be a TV movie or mini-series. I mostly remember the ending. I think almost the entire movie takes place on the uninhabited tropical island. We don't find out that he was a fugitive from the law until near the end. I think some more people arrive on his island and eventually I think someone (maybe a woman) finds a newspaper clipping of his original "crime" hidden somewhere in his house. He lived there for years I think. At the end of the movie he is heading back to civilization in a boat. I think the woman and maybe some other people are with him. I think maybe he had a long beard and he shaved it for his return to the world but I am not sure. What I am certain about is really only that he was a fugitive living on a tropical island for many years and that he does return at the end of the film and that the newspaper clippings from his crime are discoverd at some point revealing his true identity. My memory of this is very very faint. So I really have no idea of the time frame. But it is almost certainly from no earlier than the 80s. Probably mid to late 80s or early to mid 90s is my best guess.
Jul 29, 2008 I saw this film on the Speed Channel, which I think is now just called SPEED, over a year ago. The film is either all in french or parts of it is in french. It seemed pretty old, but I couldn't describe the era (I'm bad with eras, sorry). Characters are a man, a woman, and a little boy, perhaps two. Plot may have included this man meeting up with the woman and the boys, somewhere near the water? I recall some sort of happy reunion on the beach. I'm hoping the fact that it was on the Speed Channel helps to narrow it down.
Jul 21, 2008 I'm afraid I can't remember much except for there was a little boy, blonde I think aged about 5 or 6. He had either lost his mother or had something else happen to him and I think he had some kind of behavioural disorder. His bedroom was i the attic of his family's big house and his parent/s did not have much to do with him because he was so naughty/shy and would hide up in his room. I have a vague recollection of the child not being able or willing to talk to anyone. In his bedroom were lots of flowing white swathes of material and I vaguely remember he had some kind of secret passageway inside the wall where he would hide. The family hires a nanny or helper for the boy and she is very strict, making him sit down at a small table in his attic room and do his lessons. I also remember that while the little boy won't talk to her at first, he becomes more and more attached to her throughout the film and the parents not being too happy about it.
Jul 19, 2008 I am looking for a movie maybe from the 80's it must have been atleast ten years ago when ive seen it. im not sure of actors names. i just remember a girl always riding her bike to spy on her mother's boyfriend and would take pictures of him having sex with other women and one time she snuck in the house and almost got caught. another scene i remember is the mother walking down the stairs and tripped over something which the daughter thought was put there purposely. and other scenes i remember were the daughter showed the mother the pictures of her boyfriend cheating so she left him and i remember the daughter upstairs in her room when the man comes back with his friends and throws the mother who is in a wheelchair down the stairs along with her daughter and the daughter knew how to mess with the fuse box so when another man went to fix it it had got him electricuted. but at the end of the movie i know the daughter stabbed him in her bedroom
Jul 18, 2008 a man recieves a postcard from europe and decides to sell his farm to go and work there and takes his new born thinking he needs no passport then he gets smuggled into a ships crane to land in italy at the end the wife and baby died and he goes to jail is from the middle east
Jul 15, 2008 In the early 1970's, I recall seeing on Buffalo TV an Eskimo movie about a young Inuit boy who befriended a half-dog, half-wolf. The kid may have been ostracized by his village because I remember one scene where he had to rescue his dog from a snowball attack by other kids. Movie ended on a downer with his beloved dog torn to shreds saving his master from an attack by wolves.
Jul 14, 2008 i saw a film in mid of 80-es i think and i remember that was the story about group of young people in two car i think , and wrong road and the house in the wood, first empty and they found a chair in the room i think with chains and medical knifes. And they found a videocasetes with scenes of torture on that chairs. And suddenly some freaks start to attack, but our heroes gots a machine gun in the car and then the batlle began. i also remember scene when some guy make love with the girl in the bad on the first floor and someones eyes watch through the hole in the wall or in the roof. on the end i think all visitors are dead exept one who found shelter in the wood beside some big tree and some freak with the big knife passed near him.
Jul 11, 2008 i saw this film on tv, i think it was mid to late eighties. i think it was made for tv. the plot revolved around 2 teenage girls who were best friends. they lived near a beach. in the end, one ends up murdering the other by strangling her, on the beach i think. the only other thing i can remeber is that at some point, there is a shot of a tv in the background and it's showing a movie called 'convoy, not the 1978 Sam Peckinpah movie but the 1965 version in black and white.
Jul 7, 2008 Not a request but an almighty thankyou for finding the title of a film that has nearly sent me crazy on many occasions trying to find said title. Cheers one and all.
Jul 7, 2008 When I was about 4 yrs old, my aunt took me to a movie that was so scary it made me hide under my seat. The year was 1944. I think Margaret O'brien was the star, but I'm not sure. In the movie, someone throws a brick through the window of the little girl's home, and she goes outside into the street. She wanders into some kind of temple or museum that contains stone statues of Balinese demons ready to plunge a curved knife into a statue of the little girl. Later, some crooks enter the same place, looking for the little girl. Then a mummy comes to life and chases the crooks out of the building. The little girl may not have been played by Margaret O'brien, I'm not sure. I think the movie was in color. I have tried to figure out the title of this movie by searching the Internet Movie Database and similar web sites, but have not had any luck so far.
Jul 4, 2008 i watched this movie last year 2007 it was in french but had english sub titles.It started of with a young girl she looked about 13 walking across a street with her eyes closed. she did it for fun all the time. The movie is about two girls the same age. one girl has a very violent father who wont let her to anything . he dosent want her tp grow up . one day there was a field trip that his daughters class was going on to a water park . The daughter really wanted to go but he said no. finally he told her she could go but he put some sort of drug in her drink whitch made her very sick so she couldnt go. the girl who walkes across the street with her eyes closed is her neighbor i think . they become very good friens. the mean father dosent like this and tryes to make them not friends. the father has a nanny/maid who smokes. the neigbor girl steals smokes from the nanny and the two young girls smoke it. the father catches her and he kills the nanny and puts her in the trunk . his daughter also goes with the neighbor girl and they go see boys and make out with them. i also rember somethign about the father killing a dog. the neighbor girl dosent take shit from the father she isnt afraid of him. in the end the father trys to kill the neighbor girl . he is chasing her throught the wooks one night of a dance and then they come to a busy street. the neighbor girl walked through the traffic like she did in the begining with her eyes closed and the father gets hit by a car
Jul 1, 2008 this must have been between 1993-1995. i believe it was a made for TV movie. it took place in LA or the surrounding area. it was in color. i was younger when i saw it but this is what i can remember: it was about a bunch of black kids (brothers?) who i think were orphaned. i think they get a foster family? that's what i don't recall. i have a feeling they were singers/performers, but i don't remember for sure.in one scene one of the kids is crying hysterically thinking he killed his mom because she died during childbirth.at the VERY end of it they're on the beach and one of them yells out I LOVE CALIFORNIA!
Jun 30, 2008 In the early to mid 1990's, the Bravo cable TV station which I received at the time on my cable provider in Margate, Florida played a film that was a kind of fatasy film which, as I recall, was set perhaps in the 1800's or early 1900's. There were, I believe, 3 kids, with a slender red-headed nanny/governess type character, who later turns out to be something of a magical witch, and an adult man that was some type of father figure. he was also the proprietor of some kind of magical book store or somesuch. what I remember is that the kids, a younger girl, a teenage girl and teenage boy, would put on plays for the adult nanny/witch/governess and father figure characters. In one scene, the play they put on magically transcends the room and the play's scene come to life. In one of these plays, they have a marrionette type puppet of a white seagull or swan or some such bird, and then the scene changes magically to a real beach, and for some reason the large white puppet bird begins to attack the teen girl character, to the point where some of the other characters have to come into the beach scene to save the teen girl character from the puppet bird attack. Another scene I remember is where the adult male father-figure type character does something that really ticks off the nanny/witch character, and the scene shows this nanny character's rage morphing into her use of magical powers, thus revealing her "witch-like" nature. the end of the film seems to involve some type of burning down of the magic book/toy or whatever store. Some other clues: this film was one of several run by Bravo in the early 1990's as part of a film director series - I believe the director may have been some type of foreign film director. Also, this film was shown on Bravo at a time when they still showed commercial-free, mostly un-cut films, as I recall there was at least one scene that involved some nudity of the nanny/witch/governess character.
Jun 25, 2008 TV movie that aired around the mid 70s. A brother and a sister were left to stay w/ a family in the English countryside. The sister was treated well and the boy was abused. At one point, he tries to make himself ill by shoving painted wooden toy animals in his mouth to consume the lead paint. At the end, the mom comes back for them, and the boy is wearing glasses and says something like "I'm dirty and I'll never be clean again."
Jun 23, 2008 This was a Cinemax "After Dark" R or unrated flick, I'm pretty sure, in the late 1980s or 1990s (I saw it in 1995). It was foreign-made, I would guess Japanese or Chinese as the actors are all Asian. I remember only 1 scene and a brief moment with an actor (I hope I'm not confusing him with another movie). In the scene, a bunch of well-off people, men and women are riding horses on a large farm. They then go watch one of the mares get bred to a stallion. Some guy starts fondling a woman in the group as they're kind of turned on by the whole thing. They retire to an empty barn and have sex.The other thing I remember is a male character who is either paralyzed or his legs are amputated. Either way, he is bed ridden and bitter, although this does not stop him from messing around with one of the ladies (a servant?)
Jun 23, 2008 This was an American, color, 80s teen movie. I used to think it was Sixteen Candles but it's not. It may be Molly Ringwald though. She is talking with her friend who is taking a bath and complaining about her little brother's friends, who happen to be bouncing up and down on a trampoline trying to watch her.
Jun 18, 2008 I watched a movie on tv in the early 90's (color) about a American woman who has a murder captured on her camera. She tries to catch the killer with the help of a Parisian police officer. I'm pretty sure the woman is a photographer and the majority of the film takes place in France.
Jun 13, 2008 I'm trying to find the Tv series. It might be from 80's or 90's.The mother (the family is not rich) takes her 2 children for shopping. She leaves them in front of the shop. The boy has to look after his new born sister. But he starts playing and some woman kidnaps her. This woman was pregnant, her husband left for a business trip. And she was going to some house with her maid. But on the way there they had a flat tire and while changing it, the woman had a miscarriage. So she kidnaps a baby girl. Police never finds the girl. But they questioned every women who had a new born baby. And they actually questioned the kidnapper, but she already had the birth sertificate saying that the baby is hers. I think in the new family thegirl is called Dawn. The woman tells her husband that it's their baby. Her maid knows all the truth but does not tell anyone. After some time the husband suspects something, but he dies in the accident just before telling the truth to his daughter. I think he falls from the stairs. When the girl grows up she finds out the truth - I can't remember how this happens. She searches for her real family. And there is a boyfriend who helps her. And the end is about how she enters the house where she grew up. And she says to her boyfriend that she is pregnant. And he runs out of the house and throws away the sign - for sale. Then he comes back and they kiss.
Jun 11, 2008 I actually have a request for an Anime Film, I hope that is okay. To date I have only found one other person who has also seen this movie. I watched this film at some point during the early 90's. So anytime between 1991 and 1996. I dont remember much but this film captured my imagination and I have become a bit consumed with finding it ever since its existence was confirmed by my friend. It was a story of this little boy-haired boy whose parents were harmed by a legion of robots. I remember that these robots sort of resembled that one from the Jetsons. He escapes their fate by hiding but he does witness the whole event. And is crying and scaredAt a later point in the movie he runs into a large body of water and a girl who lives in the sea. They kind of fall in love but there tortured by the fact that they can never really be together because she lives in the sea and she lives on land.
Jun 11, 2008 I half-saw this film late at night on HBO/Cinemax/etc. in the early 90s. It involved a young couple who, for reasons I don't recall, were not home safe and in bed one night. They enjoyed some after-hours adventures around town. There was a scene in an executive's fancy office (may have been the boy's father's office?). There was a scene in a hot tub which would definately have earned this an R rating. Toward the end, the boy finds himself in a confrontation with a man. The boy realizes that he has been bumping into this man for the whole movie. There was a montage showing the man in his various incarnations: security guy, clown(?), etc. It may be that the man and the girl were in cahoots the whole time? Either it ends very badly for the boy at this point, or I fell asleep and didn't see the rest.
Jun 9, 2008 Can't remember much, but a housewie/maid trying to push a shoe cabinet back into place - I don't remember if something was hidden behind it. She looked 70's-ish in brown colours, and I believe she had corkscrew curls - a bit like Keri Russell.
Jun 5, 2008 It was a late 80's horror movie where there was a possessed child, but I don't think it revolved around this possessed child, just the ending parts were. I remember this guy, who I think was the young girls dad driving his truck to some building and coming into this room where the little girl was in the middle of the room crouched down with her back turned to him and he had a shotgun I think and may have killed her. I think the guy earlier in the movie may have started choking and then vomited up a skeleton and it was really sick. That part may be from a poltergeist movie but I'm not sure so I may be mixing movies here. And I feel like I remember the guy looking like the dad in the movie "Elf", his name is James Caan.
Jun 5, 2008 I saw a movie in the Spring of 2003 on TV. I am not sure if this was its first airing but it seemed modern enough that it would have been made around that time. It was definitely a TV movie, not one that had ever been in theaters. It was a really strange movie, which is why I have been trying to track it down.It was about a girl in high school who is having some sort of psychological problems and is seeing a psychiatrist. For some reason, people at school know she is having problems, so she feels isolated, but a really popular boy inexplicably takes an interest in her and they start dating.Then the movie gets really weird. The girl, her boyfriend, their teacher and some classmates go to a cabin in the mountains for some reason. While they are there, the movie keeps switching between "normal things" like the girl being back in her home life and at school and seeing her psychiatrist and crazy stuff happening at the cabin, where the girl and her classmates and teacher end up getting attacked by a lot of monsters/creatures which resemble bigfoot. Basically you don't know if the monster stuff is real or if it is part of her imagination, but whenever the movie switches to those crazy scenes, a lot of the people at the cabin get killed.Back in the more normal scenes of the movie, through her treatment with the psychiatrist, the girl uncovers some memories of her stepfather abusing her. She even has a memory/dream where she is her teenage self and she is with a younger version of herself and the younger version is hiding from the stepfather who is offscreen, calling her to come inside. The girl tells the younger version of herself not to go. Then, the the girl is in a hospital or somewhere and is apparently having a worse time with whatever psychological issues she was having, and her boyfriend is there, telling her that he loves her and that sets her free. Somehow, this makes her realize her memory of the abuse were false. At the end of the movie she tells her mom and stepdad she doesn't want to see that doctor anymore.
Jun 3, 2008 I am looking for an educational show that I saw when I was in elementary school. It was a lot like Tomes and Talismans, however, this one was about space and economics. There were guys in space suits - can't remember much else. Lots of episodes though and I can't find anything online that sounds like it. I saw it in the early/late 80's but perhaps it was made in the 70's.
May 31, 2008 I saw this movie on TV in late 80s- early 90s. I had a b/w TV, but the movie must be in colour.A man is a perfume designer. He quit the successful business and lives on a (tropical?) island. He meets a girl there. His former partner(ex-wife?) wants him back and sends thugs to bring him back. The man refuses to return, the thugs burn his house. I do not remember what happened to the girl. The man overcomes the thugs and in the end of the movie finds the girl. She is wearing overalls and is painting a house wall (or fence?) when he comes.
May 30, 2008 This was a made for tv movie in the 80's i think. what sucks is, the only scene i can remember from the film involves a woman driving a duece n half truck, full of explosives, on a military base. when she stops all the guys crowd on to the truck to get to her, but then she pulls out a detonator, they start scrambling, but too late as she blows herself and them up.
May 23, 2008 I saw this film at a movie theater in 1978 or 1979. I don't remember very much, except that it's very very sad. It was in color, and was probably an American film, but I don't know for sure. I remember it was about a couple having problems and wanting to get a divorce. They have two children, a boy and a girl, both very young (under 10 years of age). The kids wanted their parents to stay together, and so the couple decided to try to work out their differences. to no avail. Finally, the couple decided to go through with the separation, and announced their decision to the kids. Needless to say, the kids were devastated. The night before the final split up, the two kids decided to run away to their grandma's. They left in the middle of the night. It was raining very hard., and for some reason they stopped in the middle of the trip (I think they were too weak, or too sick to continue). The brother (the elder of the two) could not go on anymore. He told his sister to go ahead without him., and they said their good-byes right there. I remember the last scene of the film was the morning after, there's this big tree with red leaves all over it, and the boy was found under the tree, dead.
May 8, 2008 I watched this movie in 1978-79 when I was about 9 years old - They showed the movie at school on a large screen. It was about a teenge boy and his single mother. The movie starts by the mother telling the teenage boy that they have to move. Then the movie plays music as they travel to their home in a blue volkswagen beetle. Then when they move to their new town, they either move in a large white house, or next door to one. There is a kind of scary woman that lives next door, and it's like the town doesn't trust her. In time the teenager befriends the elderly woman - where he seems to find out a secret of some kind.
May 6, 2008 Saw this movie when I was a kid, late 80's/early 90's. All I can remember is a scene at the end where two kids are running away from a guy and find a huge crystal (or diamond) in a cave. The cave is located on a beach. I remember them coming out of the cave at night. I thought that it was called something similar to "Crystal Cave" but I can't find anything with that title. Not much to go on.
May 6, 2008 Kudos - Everyone Not a request, I just wanted to Thank you so MUCH for you website that helped me find out the name of that movie I'd been wondering about for the last 20 years! I will always look to help others here! Gratefully yours, Kat
May 6, 2008 not Operation Kid BrotherAll I can remember about this film was that it had an ending similar to the James Bond film, "Thunderball," (1965). There was a character that looked and acted like James Bond. He was similarly suave and debonair, and wore a suitcoat. There was a woman that looked similar to Domino from the "Thunderball" movie. There was also a third character that reminded me of Kutze, the scientist from that movie. This Kutze character was also timid as the original Kutze, and I remember him having a mustache. Near the end, these three people are on board a jet that has landed on the ocean (I do not recall there being anyone else on board the plane). The plane is about to sink, and the timid guy is very frightened and says that he can't swim. The woman tells the timid guy to put on a lifevest (I think she might have held a gun on him the whole time, but I am not sure). After putting it on, both he and the woman go to the door of the plane, where she then coaxes the timid guy to jump into the water (as in the original "Thunderball" movie, once this timid guy jumps into the water, he is never seen again). Immediately after he jumps into the water, the woman runs back into the plane to join the Bond character. After a minute or so, the plane begins to sink. The two of them go to the door of the plane, where at that point the Bond character pulls out a small article from inside his suitcoat, which turns out to be an inflatable liferaft. The Bond character pulls a cord attached to the raft, and the raft immediately starts to inflate. Once the raft inflates, the Bond character helps the woman get into it. Just as the Bond character is about to get in himself, he says to the woman, "Wait a minute." He runs back into the plane and grabs a bottle of wine (or champagne) and two glasses from the plane's bar. The Bond character then runs back to the door and gets into the liferaft. He shows the bottle to the woman and says, "I can't leave this behind." Shortly afterwards, the plane sinks beneath the surface of the ocean. The two of them float on the liferaft for several minutes, and drink a toast from the bottle. Suddenly, a helicopter flies in and hovers above them. The helipcopter then releases a cable harness and lowers it down to them. The Bond character gets into the harness and holds on to the woman. The harness then lifts them out of the liferaft. Once they are in the air, the helicopter flies away with the two of them dangling in the air; and that--from what I can remember--is how it ends.
May 5, 2008 another movie i would love to know 80's action movie, its about something to the fact where they give these people certain amount of time to go hide, and then they come after them and try to kill them. i remember ending of the movie were this guy in the water and they trying to bomb him.
May 3, 2008 In 2005 or 2006, I saw a film on TV. it was a B-movie, a foreign sci-fi/thriller. I believe it was releashed in the early 2000s. It was about a woman with either telekinetic powers, time-slowing powers, or some other kind of supernatural powers. Early on in the film, it shows her locked up at some farm, where scientists test people, but she escapes. As an adult, she's trying to solve some kind of mystery of a killer or is trying to save herself from a killer. The climatic scene is in a police station where there is a gun standoff. The gunman/killer fires at her and with her powers somehow dodges the bullets and is then able to kill him or something along those lines. The title is one word- a compound word of about ten letters or so. It might have "time" in it; it sounds kind of funny/cheesy. The female lead definitely had a foreign name, and it sounded Indian (as in India). She had fairly dark skin.
May 1, 2008 this film is set maybe late 80's early 90's, in America, in colour and was on TV. A young boy is sitting in his classroom and his teacher is asking what everyone did over the summer. everyone else tells the usual stories which are quite boring to everyone in the class and so it turns to the young boy. he begins about how his mother remarried. then he starts into a story of how his new stepfather's twin brother turns up and takes them to the woods to maybe kill them. its a comedy film really!
Apr 27, 2008 When I was a kid I saw this thing on tv, I dont know if it was a movie or a tv show. I remember that the theme for it had something like a wizard and a book.The basic plot was that there were these normal kids, who found a magical chest in the secret locked "room" underneath the stairs in their new house. They were able to use this chest to travel to another fantasy world.This was Animated and was shown on US basic cable, somewhere between 1990 and 2000 probably a better bed would be 1992 - 1998 but I really have no idea. Keywords: magical, chest, secrets, something with the letter S, quest, adventure, kingdom, book, spell,
Apr 26, 2008 I saw this movie in the early 90's. And I remember only some moments. 1. A family takes a vacation. In their carMan: Left or right?Woman: My female intuiton tells me right.Then they find themself in a weird house with an old mad couple.2. An old woman is thrusting kid's arm into a mincing machine!3. In the end of movie.Man: Left or right?Woman: My female intuiton tells me left
Apr 23, 2008 there is this movie I saw about a decade ago. I think it was in colour, though I can't remember. I was really young so it must have been some sort of family film.we saw it at our daycare. Anyway, at the end of this movie the bad guy comes into the hero's wedding and shoots his bride. I don't think it ever tells you if she dies or not. But the hero chases the villian out of the tiny chapel and through the woods. The bad guy ends up falling into a pit of quicksand.I think the hero's wife used to live in some sort of cabin out in the woods, unless this is yet another film I can't remember. I think she gets sick at one point as well.
Apr 21, 2008 I dont know who was in this film or the title. I saw it in approximately 1988, and it looked a few years old then. A woman's husband is having an affair. He and his mistress try to make her think she's crazy so that he can leave her. In a scene late on in the film, she looks out the window and in the house across the street, her husband and his mistress are on a chair dead. It turns out that they are only pretending to drive her crazy, and when the police arrive the bodies are gone. It turns out they used some sort of red wire or string to make it look like their throats were cut. The film is definately not Gaslight, which has been suggested to me before.
Apr 18, 2008 this movie like alot of other horro movies has a group of teens going into a house where one by one they are keilled each time one of the members of the group gos into a room of the house i rember a blond girl getting decapitated and a girl a guy go to search for her a find her like that im thinking that somewhere in the house i think the attic was like a fun house or something
Apr 16, 2008 I'm looking for a black and white movie, might be a Charlie Chaplin movie (in my head, all his movies merged into one because I'm racking my brain and continue to watch them by forwarding, but where to start?) or some movie from around that time. The only scene I remember is a scene with a bag or suitcase. The main character stuffs his clothes into his suitcase and than, because he is in a hurry, cuts away the parts of his clothes that don't fit into his bag. Now he has holes in his clothes .Do you think it is a Charlie Chaplin? and which one could it be?I would be very thankful for any kind of hint!
Apr 16, 2008 I barely remember the film because i was a little girl. But some moments in the film stuck in my head . I thought it was Vivien Leigh who starred in it for some reason but i can't seem to find any film plots that sound familiar. I can't remember if it was in black and white or colour, but i remember the film was quite old. I think the film is this old man who is telling some children a story about a woman and man. The story he is telling is the film. It shows a young woman who loves this man who doesn't notice her and she wants to go to a dance with him. (But another older man likes her.)He doesn't take her to the dance so her grandfather dances with her and her knicker/long johns fall down (big gowns) and she pretends to faint and is carried home. At the end of the film the old man who is telling story is, i think, the man in the story and he is telling the story of the young woman in the film and i think he was telling his grandchildren his life story as a story. It tells it to them up in the attic of a house. And it is the house in the film/story.
Apr 12, 2008 I remeber watching a movie around 1998. It think it may have been mad in the 80s and it was in color. I want to say Kurt Russell was in it, but I cannont find it. These are the only things I can remember: there are two main characters that i know of a guy and a woman, they are being chased by someone who wants them killed(I think), there is a scene for sure that takes place in a barn between these two and they have sex, another partial scene i remember is they are running on a balcony trying to get away from whoever is chasing them, and i also think its supposed to take place in a different country.
Apr 10, 2008 I saw the trailer for this movie about a year or two ago. It was about a guy who returned home to either an island or a place near the ocean. The main character looked like Adrien Brody and fell in love with this girl, that he knew before he left. But his best friend also fell for her. I think the title may have had the word sun in it but i'm not sure.
Apr 9, 2008 I saw this movie in color in the theaters. It was in the late '70s or maybe as late as the first half of 1980. It seems similar to the storyline of "I alone survived" but the reason I think it's different is that I'm sure I saw it in the theaters and I think the plane crashed in the desert and that the main character is a boy. I remember them draining fuel from the wings of the plane to keep a fire going, but either the pilot eventually dies or the boy knows their only hope for survival is to get help. One scene I remember is that the boy (who seemed to be quite a survivalist) was able to find water in a dried up riverbed by digging a hole. Oh, and I think I remember the boy taking a mirror with him to use as a signal. The boy was really smart, and it seems like he eventually made it to safety, but I can't remember the details or whether the pilot was alive at the end of the movie.Oh, and i seem to remember a scene at one point where he finds out that he was going around in circles.
Apr 9, 2008 This was likely a made for TV movie from the mid-to-late 80s but possibly early 90s and I *think* might have been on ABC. It's about a bunch of people who are at some swank little party and an unexpected meteor shower happens and they all go outside to gape like mouthbreathers at the meteors, then go back indoors to rub their tuxedos up against one another again? The next day they realize THE STARS HAD BEEN FALLING OUT OF SKY. And these creatures that look like claymation ankylosaurs burst forth from the stars that fell to earth and the little guys go around electrocuting people. A young boy sees one crawling up his bedroom window, but his grandpa busts up in there with a shotgun and shoots it TO DEATH.
Apr 7, 2008 I saw a black and white film (probably shot sometime between the 30's and 50's) where a family goes to the Grand Canyon. The husband and the wife have three kids (two boys and a little girl who always has a stuffed panda in tow). There's a scene where the boys hypnotize their little sister and make her walk along a rail on the edge of the Canyon. The wife thinks her husband's cheating on her, so she runs away with her three kids. They're trying to go away via train, but her kids are hungry and I think she filches a couple of sandwiches from someone's house.
Apr 3, 2008 Two boys (maybe brothers) find a old wooden chest in a back alleyway. One of the boys decides to climb in. The lid is shut and the boy inside is trapped. The other boy uses an ax to get him out and cuts the leg of the boy inside. Once out, the injured boy hobbles away quickly with the help of his friend. The only other "scene" I remember is these same two boys are put away in some kind of jail, or prison. They escape and find there way to a large tarmac where a plane is waiting. The two climb into the cockpit and fly away. I am not sure if I watched or dreamed this. If I did watch it it would have been on T.V. around 1975-1978. For some reason I seem to think that it was set in the U.K
Apr 2, 2008 I saw this horror film in the early 1980's('80-'83) on TV. It was definetly color and was probably made in the 1970's or early 1980's. It was the classic evil/possesed house that brings death to the inhabitants(similar to Amityville Horror. The most terrifying and memorable thing about it was the ending. After all the haunting and carnage happens, words appear telling the viewer that so and so had also lived in the house and killed themself, then another person lived in the house and killed their whole family, etc. I don't remember the details at all but it was along those lines and finally you are told that this was based on a true story and a real house. I am fairly certain there may have been a scene with a well on the property and I am uncertain but sort of remember a hanging in the film.
Mar 28, 2008 I watched the movie about 3 years ago? It's a court tv movie about this girl, her mom, and her friends being kidnapped by two guys in their own house. The teenage girls are in bathing suits. I remember there was a scene where one of the guys gets hurt, and the mom and her daughter perform surgery on him in he kitchen. One of her friends almost gets raped by one guy. Basically, the mom and daughter end up with a stronger relationship after they get away. The daughter somehow contacts her mute brother from a bathroom window.
Mar 23, 2008 This film was made sometime between 1988 and 1998. Color film I think. Parts of the plot I remember best; boy thinks his neighbor is a witch, he spies on her, catches her masturbating, he is confused by this, not a very sexual scene. The woman is more of a misunderstood character that is lonely. Images that stick in my mind, Amish type clothing, two pale twin girls, American-Gothic feel to the film. It may have been set in the 19th century, rural midwest or the high plains of the United States or Canada.
Mar 21, 2008 I saw this movie maybe 8 or so years ago. It was in color and it was about a girl going to her lake house over the summer, and this boy was in love with her but she tried everyway possible to avoid him. In the end, the boy and his friend go swimming but there is a storm and the boy ends up drowning because he was too far out in the water. The girl's dad i think is the one that saves his friend. At the closing, the girl's family is having a get together and the girl meets a guy on a swing on her porch at the end. Black Balloon by the Goo Goo Dolls plays in it.
