I am looking for the title of a movie I saw probably 10 years ago. It was a horror movie with I think a one word title. It starts off with a kid in bed and it's stormy outside and I remember a branch scratching the window and also a clown doll in the kid's room. The scene ends with him getting pulled under the bed by something. I don't think it was a Poltergeist movie, which has been suggested to me by other people I've described this to.

This one's been bugging me for a while. It's a weird horror movie, that I think was also meant to be comedic. It was set in a big, colourful amusement park, and the video quality made me think it was produced sometime in the mid 90's. The only specific scene I remember is one in which some people get in a rollercoaster, I think to escape a monster, and the tracks lead them right into a big furnace. I saw it late at night on TV about 10 years ago, so I don't remember much more about it. I know it's not much to go on, but any help would be appreciated.

Willing to bet this is Nothing but Trouble: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102558/ the scene I think you're thinking of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enUo-1TjdEs

^ Well most of my memory was wrong, but that is definitely the scene I was thinking of. Thanks! I'm disappointed that I forgot John Candy and Chevy Chase were in it, but I was young and staying up way too late to watch bizarre movies.

Nah, it's got to be "Nothing but Trouble", I don't think Explorers or the others are even close. If you think about it it makes sense, the movie has all the elements that would make it the top request in this thread. It does have famous actors in it. It has really really weird makeup and scenes, and it's obscure and wasn't that popular, so that the weirdness makes an impression and makes you think "poo poo did I really SEE that or did I DREAM it?", and the famous actors make it kind of stick in your mind too, but then you think "naaa, Dan Aykroyd wasn't REALLY in some movie with a weird-rear end monster family that I saw at 3AM on cable while I was half falling asleep doing laundry, was he? .... NAAAAH."

A professor was telling me about a film where Jane Fonda plays an alcoholic who consistently gets black out drunk. Anybody know what this is? Thanks.

This one came out in the last 1-2 years from what I remember and I forgot the title. A guy fresh out of prison goes in search of his ex-military brother who was involved in some illegal underground fights organized by a (white supremacist ??) gang. Edit: Nevermind, just found it. It was Out of the Furnace. (seems I was wrong about the date too, it won't come out before late 2013). Hammerstein fucked around with this message at 16:20 on Oct 12, 2013 |

I think this may be a long shot, but I recall seeing the beginning of a film on the Sci-fi channel way back when. It started with a hacker dude sending pornographic links and things from the president's e-mail address, then at some later point in time there's a robot with a skull head wearing rags in the desert? That latter point may have taken place inside a dream sequence.

The second part with the skull-headed robot sounds like Hardware to me, but I can't say I remember anything about presidential porn emails.

I don't have much to go on, I apologize, but here goes: I vividly remember a movie trailer a few years ago in which a bunch of people live in some sort of cabin or something, in the woods. (No, it's not Cabin In The Woods). A bunch of rowdy teens come up to party, in which the people living there geninuely and sincerely accept. But due to accidents, misunderstandings, and confusion, the teens start getting killed. The teens immediately think the cliched backwoods-murderers-killing-us, and despite all attempts to prove them wrong, the teens keep dying. I remember being really interested in seeing it, but then I never saw anything else about it at all.

The vague memories of a movie trailer seen in my youth popped into my head recently. What I remember: - it was definitely a comedy - it involved some sort of demented/possessed/insane/whatever tv network(s) or programs - there was a scene of a workout show where the woman leading the workout says something to the effect of "let's spin all the way around now!" and her head spins all the way around - it was in the late 80s or early 90s when I saw this, so it was definitely not Shock Treatment De Nomolos fucked around with this message at 01:21 on Oct 14, 2013 |

Yep, that's it. Watched the trailer. Doesn't look too good, but there's an animated short by Chuck Jones if anyone cares.

I remember seeing a movie in the 80's set in Central America. It was weird because it was set in the 1800s, but helicopters show up at the end of the movie. It was like the director was saying America's involvement with Central America then is the same as the involvement in the 80's. There was a Hispanic character who keeps getting his arm beaten up the whole movie and then gets it torn or cut off at the end. Anyone?

Trying to remember the name of a movie I watched within the last 3 years, on a recommendation from here. Full details are very spoilerish, I'll put them behind tags and try to be as descriptive as possible about non-spoiler stuff. Very low budget / indie. Might have been at least partially shot first person. It's about a 20-something young lady who has recently moved to the city from a rural area. She is very sad and lonely. This is the main theme, at least for the first half. Her dog (or cat?) disappears. She continues to be depressed, despite roommates throwing parties and such. She has sex with a guy. Still depressed. Her old rural bf comes to town and basically kills her roommates, the boys they're with, and at the end maybe her

There was a live-action movie I saw when I was little. Something like a guy in a robot suit or something like that. He said he was hungry, so the robot jammed a bunch of food in its mouth, put it through a blender and essentially gave the guy inside a generic food meatball that he gagged down. Can anyone place this, or was I just hallucinating?
