JfishPirate posted:I saw this movie on DVD in somewhere around 1999-2002. It had a burly white man as the main character, and he was digging up his front yard for some reason. I think it ended in a church with demons or something. I'm not sure if it's the same film, but the guy found his wife incased in plastic at some point. This kind of sounds like Stir Of Echos which stars Kevon Bacon who starts reciving messages from a ghost. He's digging up his front yard trying to find her body. The body in plastic isn't his wife, it's the girl who was murdered in the house he now lives in The Church with demons doesn't come into play at all so it was maybe another movie, End Of Days possibly?

Not sure if this has been posted, lurked about but didn't see it. I'm searching for the title of a film that I saw once or twice (on HBO or similar channel) when I was younger (late 80s). The story took place during World War II and the most prominent scene I can remember is when a bomb is dropped into a river and all the dead fish surface, causing a boy to become jubilant. Other scenes I vaguely remember: -A line of boys taking turns to look down a girl's skirt in a bombed out city as they shouted about a "password." -Parents being separated from their children by Nazis. I wish I could remember more, but all I have are bits and pieces. Does this sound familiar to anyone else? Or is this film more widely known than I assume and I sound like a complete idiot for asking? Born in Bexhill fucked around with this message at 07:16 on Apr 13, 2007 |

This is a British movie I rented that I cannot come up with the name of: A man (mathematician or computer scientist or economist?) discovers a formula that perfectly predicts the stock market. A company uses this formula to get rich, but the man who discovered the formula sabotaged the data he gave the company because they were responsible for his father committing suicide some years back, and so the company loses all of their money.

I remember a scene from a movie I saw on televisions a few years ago, but it seemed it could be as old as the 70s. There was a handful of naked men lined up for some reason, and a woman (either smokin' hot, or ugly as hell) was walking along, critiquing their junk. One line I remember in particular was (paraphrased) "What do you use for a jockstrap, kid, a peanut shell and a rubber band?". I know that I should remember this movie, as I'm fairly sure it's a well-known one, but I just don't.

Is Porky's also the movie where some guys drill a peephole in the wall to spy on girls, until someone puts superglue around the hole? I remember it being in a train car which is probably wrong. I know there's a hole in the shower room in Porky's, did that one get glued?

I'm trying to remember the name of an American 70s era muscle car chase movie. A friends younger brother had this on VHS in the early 90s, and he claimed it was the longest car chase on film. The chase itself was at least 45-60 minutes long, but we came in after the movie had started so I don't know for sure how long it was. I also can't remember the type or color of car, but I'm fairly sure that at some point there was a female passenger. I also think that at some point they drove through a car wash during the chase, but I might be wrong about that. I know the car was being chased by police. I know for certain it isn't Death Race 2000 or French Connection. I'm fairly certain that it wasn't Vanishing Point, but there were enough similarities that watching it recently triggered my memory of this mystery film.

I'll throw out the one nobody's ever been able to answer.. (and thanks for previous answers; managed to find some old flicks I sorta-remembered) The only piece I really remember from this, and I'm thinking I saw it on TV during the early 80s, was a group of people in an elevator that started descending further and further and they ended up in hell. I can't remember much else about it, but that particular piece stuck with me. Anybody?

I know this is from one of the Nerds movies, but I was wondering about the one where Ogre gets kicked out of the jock crew and eventually adopted by the nerds. What was it that Ogre said that got him kicked out (I believe it was a beach scene, the jocks toss him into the ocean) Also back in the late 80s/early 90s I saw a movie or tv show where a black ninja (literally a black dude dressed like a ninja) comes into a room and throws ninja stars at guys. I think it was just a regular house, might've had an aquarium. The ninja after kicking rear end takes his mask off

I had a dream last night that my subconscious tells me was a real film. It was very vivid, with many characters, shot in black and white, and based on the dialogue, clothing, and soundtrack, my mind tells me that it was shot in the 1950s. The genre is psych-thriller/science fiction. No killing or blood involvedm just weird poo poo involving real people. It could very well be an episode of the Twilight Zone for all I know. My mind is fuzzy on the details, and a few things may not be fabrications of my imagination, or the whole thing could be completely bogus. But I'd like to know if this is anything like a real film. The Plot: quote:The main character, we'll call him "Danny," wakes up with another man at his bedside. The other man delivers an eerie message about passing something on, but Danny has no idea what he's talking about. Danny goes about his day and bumps into a friend; upon seeing Danny, this friend gets completely freaked out and runs away. Danny is confused. He keeps walking. He sees someone else who also gets freaked out by his appearance. My mind is not clear on the resolution of the story. This is all I can remember from the dream.

I've been trying to remember the name of a movie I saw a few years back... It was a horror movie, involving a family that had 2 daughters. The mother was murdered in their house, and it was eventually discovered the daughter killed her with a stone mask. The girl then tries to take her mothers place, sleeping with her father falling in love with him or something. I remember the girl is murdered later on by the younger sister with the same mask.

After they toss the nerds, Ogre is talking about how he's going to tell everybody how they tricked the nerds. The other jocks tell him he can't tell, he argues a little bit, so they kick him off.

What movie is this from? The screens are from The Untitled Star Wars Mockumentary by Damon Packard (actually available in full through the internet archive here: http://www.archive.org/details/The_Untitled_Star_Wars_Mockumentary/) so it's some sci-fi B-movie but I don't recognize the actress.

I saw a movie from Finnish television some years ago that I haven't since been able to identify. Right at the beginning, the main character, a girl, somehow causes the death of her mother when a huge container of boiling water falls on her. The girl's father blames her on it and it's all very tragic. They all live in this weird, barren mountainous-looking area, and I never really got a clear picture where in the world they are. The girl get's a little messed up in the head because of killing her mother and all, and is then married to some fat, hairy dude. The rest of the movie is just a confusing mish-mash of sex and the girl riding horses, and at some point they were in a cabin in the mountains having sex. I'm not really sure, but it would make a lot of sense if the girl had sex with horses at some point. Also, the main character looks like Liv Tyler in my memories, but is not her.

Ok, here is a movie I haven't thought about in a very long time. When I was really little, my bedroom used to be across the hall from my parents room and their television, and I would strategically crack open each of our doors so that I could lie in bed and watch 1/10th of the screen instead of sleeping. I think this may have led to me watching stuff I shouldn't have been at that age, like the following. I'm not sure if this was a real movie, or if it came from some fever-induced coma when I was really sick sometime, but I vividly remember a movie where a group of people are way out away from civilization, and are captured by cannibals. I remember a particular scene, it's nighttime, and there are fires burning and the light is red glowing and shadowy all over the place while these captives are tied to wooden stakes. One was a woman, and the captors cut one of her tits off. Then there is a shot of a huge sunrise (probably not right after that). I dunno what the gently caress. I did have nightmares about cannibals for some time at one point. It's possible that this came out of my crazy imagination and reading 10,000 Leagues Under the Sea which I think may have had an island of cannibals, or from simply poring over the forbidden vhs cases at the video store while my parents made the rounds. A woman may not have had her tit cut off, but the idea I had in my mind at the time was that these people were going to have their flesh eaten. The movie would not have been Cannibal Holocaust or anything you wouldn't be able to rent at a video store in the late eighties.
