Shalinor posted:The gist of it was that the kid thought his family was completely normal, hits somewhere around puberty (12-ish I assume?), and then he starts growing horns and - on my! - his family has a history of this. Or he was fated to become a demon, because his parents made a pact. Or something.

80s horror set in a high school where each room goes into another dimension. They have to fight in the war in one room, robots in another, etc. Throughout the movie they're all trying to make it to some time machine to escape?

This was either on TCM or AMC I don't remember much of it but it was set in the Africa and had a cast of a tough guy with a moustache, a younger British guy and a beautiful blond. One scene had the guy with the moustache just stand there while one of the natives threw spears at him, get progressively closer and closer. I believe when one landed between his legs, he just lit a cigar and the chief looked pleased. There's another scene where native girls come in and strip the blond (behind a screen) to bath her. The younger British guy comes in and the native girls strip him down to his underwear than chase him out the hut while giggling. Not much to go on but I was flipping channels.

The film I'm looking for - Is about a ghost ship or some kind of horror taking place on a ship. - Has a cover very much like the one of 2002's Ghost Ship, except instead of a skull it looks more like jagged edges forming a kind of face. Also instead of having a night backdrop, it looks more like the evening. There may be a lifeboat floating towards it. - I don't think it's too terribly old: Probably eighties, judging by the film quality. - Has one scene, I think, where a chick gets covered in some blood somehow a la Carrie. VVV Yes that's it, thank you very much stawk Archer fucked around with this message at 02:18 on Jul 21, 2008 |

I'm not even sure whether this was a movie or an episode of some show. It was pretty Twilight Zone-ish, but I don't think that's it. It was about a guy who was crippled, in a wheelchair, and very lonely. He acquires a very lifelike android, with the appearance of a woman, and she/it becomes his only friend. As I recall, at one point he even asks if it's possible to have sex with it, but backs off at the last minute. Eventually he befriends a real human woman as well, and the robot gets jealous and tries to kill the woman (and possibly the guy as well, don't remember). I think they end up electrocuting the robot somehow, and as it dies it mumbles "I don't want to die" or something like that, which was a typical Twilight Zone moment. It's possible that earlier in the movie the guy is discussing with another man the difference between the androids and humans, and the other guy says "we fear death and they don't" or something. I might have imagined that last part, it's probably been almost 15 years since I saw this.

I'm looking for something kind of weird. It's actually a VHS tape that came along with a D&D-ish board game I got as a kid, in the mid-'90s. It's about thirty minutes long. It included a scene where bad-CGI skeletons swing in through the windows of a castle on ropes and the team has to fight them off, a couple of guys playing different character classes (a thief, a mage who wore a wolf's head as a hat, a couple of other guys), and a battle in a dungeon with a bright-red CGI half-man half-scorpion. I doubt anyone else has actually seen the thing, but my brother and sister and I watched that video over and over again back then. I can't remember the actual name of the game now, though.

If it's black and white, there was a Twilight Zone episode about this, where some guy who was an inmate on a prison planet got a robot companion, who he fell in love with. Eventually, he serves his time or is paroled, but there's only room on the rocket back to earth for him, I can't remember whether he leaves the robot or decides to stay on the prison planet with her. There's a movie called "Deadly Friend" that sounds kind of like what you are describing but I don't know if anyone was in a wheelchair. Also, the deadly friend was kind of a hybrid of robot and "other". http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090917/

Hmm, I don't think it's any of these  I am 100% sure the robot dies at the end, and I am 99% sure it was made of only mechanical parts and wasn't a cyborg.I was probably around 10-12 years old when I watched it, and unsurprisingly the almost-sex scene is the only one that really stuck in my mind. I think the robot was standing in front of the guy, naked, and he reaches out to touch it, and asks a question like "are you able to, uh, well, umm...." and the robot answers "I am programmed to perform any function a human can" or something. Then the guy backs off because hey he wasn't that desperate.

I saw this movie a couple years ago on like TNT I think and I've always wanted to know what it was, because it actually seemed really creepy. Sorry my details are a bit vague, but its all I remember. The people are in a house trying to find these ghosts, but the ghosts end up killing most of them. The one part I remember really well was a part where one of the characters is down where the medical lab was and a crazy doctor ghost thing shows up and kills them. The movie ends with the last surviving person up in one of the peaks of the house. They open up the little door and walk out onto the roof and the sun is out. The movie kind of reminded me of a mix between 'House on Haunted Hill' and 'Thirteen Ghosts' I don't recall any big names being in it that I recognized. Sorry my details suck, but thats why I have no idea what the movie was.

It was either about a haunted house or somebody with psychic powers or something, the only thing I really remember is a death scene involving a woman getting the top of her head cut off by a wall mounted can opener. I've been trying to find out the name of this movie FOREVER. I remember seeing it on TV when I was 5 or 6. For the longest time I thought it was Carrie, until I actually saw Carrie again. If it's the same movie I think the lead up to the decapitation was that the psychic girl was walking home with a boy and her mother saw this and was none too pleased. When she slapped the psychic girl she got thrown into the can opener.

That had the whole medical lab thing (being set in an abandoned insane asylum), and the ending was very similar -- though it was two survivors and the ghostly form of one of the recent victims (Chris Kattan) opened the door for them. But otherwise, the rather distinctive roof ending is like you describe with the peaks of the house and the sun out.

Maybe you guys'll be able to help me out on this one, I'm really lacking the detail. A poor family have this wild black horse, but due to their financial poverty, they have to sell it to a rich family. The only other thing I remember is that the horse always shows up when the kid is done in school, and the kis rides him home everyday. That's all I can remember. Sound familiar to any of you? I saw it a few years ago, but I think it was made years and years before that - perhaps in the 70s/80s? ZZZZZZZZZZZ fucked around with this message at 19:46 on Jul 21, 2008 |

There was a movie I was basically obsessed with as a kid but have since forgotton the title - It involved a young kid inheriting a Major League Baseball team (from recollection, it was the Phillies) from his great uncle. All I remember is that he sacked the unpopular head coach and got them to the world series only to lose on the final play because of a Ken Griffey Jr catch.

It's an easy mistake to make; The House on Haunted Hill is a 1999 remake of a 1959 film, while The Haunting is a 1999 remake of a 1963 film and was originally titled The Haunting of Hill House.
