Alright I have one that I just cannot remember. Here is what I remember, it takes place inside of either a mine or underground missile complex. There is a scene with the main character stabbing his arm with a belt to show a guard that he has had an accident to attempt to escape. I think the enemies were wearing orange or yellow uniforms. It was by no means a James Bond movie. This is pretty goddamn vague so I don't expect much. I watched this in the very early 80's, but expect that it was a 70's movie.

Rotten Punk posted:Thank you! According to the IMDB page for Exposure the short was called Fairy Town. That's great. I looked at the episode list for Exposure, but I quickly gave up on the IMDB page when I didn't see any titles. Instead, I went crazy trying to find a way to pull up the deleted Wikipedia article (Deletionpedia, Wayback Machine, snapshots of Wikipedia) and came up dry. Anyway, I hope you can find it. Between AtomFilms being gutted by MTV and Exposure not getting a DVD release (which may not even be possible due to rights issues), you might be out of luck. The Wayback machine seems to have atomfilms.com in its archive, but it's loading so slowly that I can't even get the first page to come up. If you're patient, it might be worth trying. There's a good chance that it didn't archive the actual movies, but it might point you toward who made it. That might make tracking down a copy a little easier.

Does anyone know a movie that had a VHS tape cover which featured someone wearing a leather ski mask with a zip up mouth? I believe it was a movie about a murderer or a robber but I can not for the life of me remember the title of it. This is a long shot but it was from so long ago all I remember is the weird movie cover. The movie must have come out on VHS around the early 90s.

Looking for an actor, rather than a movie. He's one of those character actors, more major in the 90's. Tall, red hair, sort of big... I can picture him in a hawaiian shirt. Maybe early 40's by now, he seems like the type of guy who could just have played every Eric Stoltz role ever, only he's bigger than Stoltz, physically. Also unlike Stoltz, he'd never have his own leading role (feel free to correct me, if you know who I'm talking about), as far as I know. I don't know what scene from what movie it is, but I can picture him saying/yelling "Oh man! OH MAN!". Not Jason Flemyng (he's too small, plus I know who he is), nor is it Damian Lewis. Help?

Trying to remember a film I saw somewhere in the 90s. Pretty sure it was set in a school with gang violence everywhere. Someone was sent in to sort it out (Possibly a cyborg?). Only scene I remember properly was a few guys in a car, the vigilante sneaks under, attaches a long chain to each door handle so that they cannot escape and then throws a hand grenade into the car. Hope someone can lead me in the right direction.

Wasn't he not a cyborg but a guy who thought he was a cyborg? Class of 1999 had a real weird hair and eyed Stacy Keach. The movie was actually decent in special effects, cast and story. Roger Ebert actually liked it as did Gene Siskel. It's out on dvd. notcreativeenough fucked around with this message at 19:47 on May 12, 2010 |

The movie I'm looking for can be a non-english language film, maybe french, I really can't recall, but the pivotal scene I do remember is set on a teaching hospital in Renaissance age. The doctors are all surrouding a man that has a chest plate, that when removed exposes his beating heart, a Frankenstein like character is the main protagonist and he's enthralled by this "marvel"

Ok so I just have a couple movies thats names I missed when I saw it or just can't remember. The first was about a spanish prison I believe, I missed most of the movie but they were having a soccer match against the guards, after the inmates ( I Believe) won someone started a fight outside which turned into a full blown riot bringing in the SWAT. They begun to surrender when one person fucks it up and the swat comes in and becomes demolishing EVERYONE in the prison, even those surrendering and hiding I think it was loosely (or completely?) based on a true story I'm unsure This one was a short film I saw on Youtube I thought was named Wrong Turn. A man turns down a street looking for help (I think) but everyone in the street is Mannequins and he gets confused. He begins to lose it as he walks through the street after hitting a mail box and they all move whenever he isn't looking, he goes into a house and starts destroying a family and he is completely nuts and everyone was real I'm not too good at describing things but I think these should give a good enough vibe of what I'm talking about.

I think it's something like 'Stand still" or... something similar. I thought I even knew it as I clicked 'reply' (well, 'quote', actually'). Still Frame? EDIT: It's called Still Life.

MMM the only true story that seems similar is when terrorists took over an embassy and the hostages were often playing against the terrorists when the miliary attacked during the match. This took place in Peru in 1997. It came out later that terrorists who had surrended were gunned down and the military forces shot the dead militants during the course of the raid to make sure they were dead and not just playing possum. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_embassy_hostage_crisis

So I figured out my own question, at least I am about 90% sure. Battle Beneath the Earth about Red Chinese in tunnels under the ground to invade the US. And it had a nice revival in the early 80's according to Wikipedia on Tv.

It sounds similar but I'm sure it isn't this. The military didn't come until the riots had started up (I believe a gang war was triggered inside) and the scene was while people were hanging up clothes or at a clothes line. No terriosts were involved

This movie has been haunting me since I saw it at my Grandma's house about 10 years ago. It was on TV, though I'm not sure whether it was made for TV, and it may have been called "Cafe [Something]". As far as I can remember, it's about a Scandinavian/other Nordic nationality woman who gets stranded in a small town in the Midwest. The actress was quite fat and had long blond braids. The movie was memorable to me because of one scene in particular, where, for some reason, the main character is imagining herself in the stereotypical "cannibal pot" situation, only she's topless, and has really gigantic floppy boobs that flail around as she panics. This really shocked me at the time, since I was a sheltered child and didn't know that kind of thing was allowed. My Grandma thought it was hilarious because she's awesome. Anyway, Googling "cannibal nudity movie" hasn't really gotten me anywhere (except on numerous watchlists, I'm sure), so if someone has an idea what this might have been, I would be thrilled to hear it! At this point I'm just really hoping it isn't something I imagined.

I'm trying to remember a film I only saw part of. There are a bunch of soldiers in the woods being picked off one by one; it's sort of like a cross between Predator and Deliverance. I only saw the middle part of it so I may be misremembering. It's not Dog Soldiers, I think it was set in the US and might be a straight to DVD flick.
