I've been trying to figure out from which movie this is from: There's a scene where a girl in her bedroom flip a poster of Olivia-Newton John for one of The Clash. This is so her father thinks she's a good girl. She may or may not light a cigarette right after flipping the poster. The movie is from the mid-80's, probably along the lines of Say Anything or Pretty in Pink.

Hey guys. I'm trying to remember a movie where there is a scene where you see the back of a blonde's head and it's revealed to be a dude with a mustache. [edit] I think the blonde in question was wearing jeans and is using a pay phone. Does this ring any bells?

I'm trying to figure out the name of a movie, where a guy's ex-wife disappears and he ends up going to her hometown to try and find her. When he gets there, nobody claims to know her, and they get rid of his dog while he is out searching for her. Eventually he discovers everyone from the town is actually an alien including his ex-wife, and that his daughter is half-alien. The couple gets back together, and the aliens decide to stop the invasion.

I swear I remember one of the main character's checking out a blonde's rear end and then going up to the blonde (who is on a payphon) and start to flirt. Then the blonde turns and it's a dude with a beard and he's angry.

I'm looking for a (bad) movie for a Thanksgiving marathon. I saw this maybe 20 years ago when my high school buddy picked it up at the video store. It's Thanksgiving-themed, featuring 17th-century-ish Pilgrims, and at least one of the women was a witch. There's a guy who gets hexed by the witch into falling in love with a turkey, possibly in revenge for an accusation of witchcraft. He sees the turkey as having the torso of a beautiful naked woman on top of turkey legs. He awkwardly tries to seduce it and then has sex with it, and the next scene has him and the turkey in bed and the turkey is smoking a cigarette. When I google for terms like "Pilgrim" "turkey" "boobs" I keep getting Thankskilling but as far as I can tell that's not right (although it's also on my list of bad Thanksgiving movies for the marathon). I think the turkey bit was actually pretty short but it's the only thing I remember except that the movie was bad and I felt slightly ashamed for having watched it.

Here is something really obscure. I haven't even seen it, just read about it and thought it sounded cool. In an old magazine I looked through today, there's a review of "Je t'aime, je t'aime", which played at the 8th New York Film Festival (1970). But the critic also commented in passing on an animated short film that played before the film: quote:... a delightful animated short, which as I remember was Czech. Its name and creator escape me, but it concerned a host of machines landing on and digging into an unspecified planet. The machines were drawn in that fine, steel etching manner that the Victorians used; the planet was all marbled papers and mottled textures, its inhabitants amoebic white blobs. The not unexpected ending was that the machines were microscopic invaders into a human anatomy ... So: Czech animated short, late 1960s (assuming it was new at the festival screening), distant planet actually human body, invaders actually viruses. Ring any bells?

Looking for a movie I watched on Netflix instant watch last year. It was a german movie where a man woke up on an empty bus driving into the middle of nowhere. He is dropped off at a stop where a man brings him to suburbia, he is given a job and an apartment. Life happens, and it's not so very sweet. He eventually becomes suspicious this whole world is some sort of purgatory and tries to escape. He tries to commit suicide multiple times but he cannot die. In the basement of an apartment building he finds a little hole in a wall where he can hear enchanting music, and starts tunneling through to find the source. He is caught and exiled.

So theres this loving weird movie I used to watch as a kid that had animation that looked like it had the derpy astroboy ascetic. It was some animu flick about a hamstar running away from home but I remember it being pretty gruesome. When I saw it there was no translation at all so I wonder if its still not in english but whatever it would be realll neat to have around when I'm really baked or something. Does anybody know what I'm talking about.

I remember this movie that I watch some long time ago, I think it's about Cuban revolution, but I'm not sure, and the main character are some American journalists, I think? And it has some pretty great CGI scenes, like a huge freight tanker bursting into flames, and Castro (or was it che guevara?) strafing at soldiers with a V-22 osprey.

I saw a western on TV sometime in the late eighties or early nineties. Very likely, it was a spaghetti western. I only remember a few bits of it; the protagonist gets caught and is tied down in a rock quarry with some sort of webbing over his head that forces his eyes open. Subsequently, he goes blind from the sun. The villains keep him around a a servant, to mock him. Eventually, he kills one of them with a knife throw, which might have been the first indication that he got his sight back. A showdown ensues. Does that ring any bells for someone?

Does anybody know what I'm talking about. Probably Oruchuban Ebichu, which has a cutesy, almost Hello-Kittyish visual style but distictly Adult Swim type humour. It's also violent but cartoonish, with the hamster often getting bloodily squished but coming back intact in the next scene a la Kenny from South Park. Not at all safe for work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0LaNDv2nGg

Maybe its an obvious one but I am trying to remember a movie I saw as a kid. The only scene I can remember is one character getting interrogated by some bad dudes. They release a snake which bites him and then he gives them the information they want in return for the anti-venom. He is injected with the anti venom, however right after the bad guy laughs and starts to drink it and says 'The French do make good fizzy water' (or soemthing like that)

I only remember one scene from the film. It may have taken place in the seventies. A group of young guys lure these two teenage girls over to an empty house. One thing leads to another and they start gang raping the older girl. The younger girl starts freaking out and crying, they wont let her leave but they don't rape her either. She has to sit there and listen to the older girl screaming. The whole thing was very surreal like a David Lynch film.

This is an ancient one, and the memory swells up interest every couple of years. I'd have to assume it was around '95 or '96 at the latest, since I was a pretty young kid at the time. Definitely a VHS rental. The only reason it sticks out in my head so readily is it's a movie my mother picked out because it had a pretty innocuously colorful cover, but it turned out to be this depressing trek so she eventually turned it off. I never did end up seeing all of it. Quite honestly the solitary memory I have of the movie is it had an extended scene about a mother animal losing her eggs. I can't remember if it was to predation or they just didn't hatch. I don't remember whether it concerns kids in its primary roles or animals of some nature, although the movie definitely has plenty of talking animals (like this narrows down 90s children's animation). I've seen the usual suspects for traumatizing children, like Watership Down. This just escapes me since I recall so very, very little of it. I can't even remember if it was a musical or not. The best guess I can come up with, and this is totally uneducated, is it had a good chance of being a Don Bluth movie, since he went in for that kind of subject matter. I'm damned curious what it was in this movie that kept it so dreary. I don't know if it was consistently so, or even if the scene in question that broke the camel's back is anything remotely noteworthy. My mother was kind of... eclectic on what she let us watch. The one thing I know it's not is The Land Before Time 2 (was it 3?) concerning the egg eating Pinky and Brain analogs. Other movies involving eggs and their fortunes are beyond me.

The drawing style immediately snapped my head back. As little as I recall of the movie, I'm dead certain that was the look of it, so between that and the scene you describe, there's nothing else for it. Thanks man, I wasn't expecting that childhood mystery to get solved so drat fast.

When I was about 12 (I am 30), I saw a clip of a movie that still haunts me. The setting is a war-torn town, in ruin and rubble. There is a group of children, mostly boys. The boys solicite a small girl to look down her pants. She asks for money, the boys pay, and she shows them, each taking a peak. It was likely in color. I have always wondered what this movie is. The imagery has disturbed me quite a bit over the years, from memory. Anyone care to guess?

Not quite a movie as such but can anyone name this documentary about Earth's past or something for children? It's framing device is a grandfather on the Moon telling his children (who due to being born and raised on the moon wouldn't be able to cope with the gravity on Earth, on the bright side, longer life span) about his old home.
