I'm looking for a horror movie I saw a bit of back in the mid 80's, possibly early 90's on vhs. Something about a possessed/dimension-portal type house with people trapped inside, and the house was bigger on the inside with monsters running around? I've been looking for it for years, and google hasn't been any help yet. It was in color, and here's what I can remember: -Some old lady being trapped by an Evil Doctor type guy, strapped to a bed and having her blood drained through what looked like a giant crazy straw of clear tubing and maybe a blender, possibly with a bunch of b-movie blinking lights "control panels". -Our mid-20's, early 30's hero trying to find her and calling his buddy for help, I think maybe his buddy comes screeching up to the house in his pickup truck? -A scene where the two heroes plan their assault on the house and decide to split up. I think one guy has a pistol or knife, and the other definitely has a lit welding torch and helmet to match. After they decide to split up torch-guy flips down his welding mask and they turn back-to-back and walk offscreen, one left, one right. Pretty sure there's at least one other scene with torch-guy refueling or relighting or otherwise dicking around with his torch, too. -Now we're somewhere in a dark cave or underground ruins or something? One of the guys gets into a fight with some giant spiky-looking black knight... thing, and is getting his rear end kicked. He gets knocked down, and finds a sword laying on the ground. He grabs it and gets back up, and is waving it around going "yeah that's right, you're scared aren't ya, now I'm gonna kick your rear end" etc. The Bad Guy turns around and grabs a handle sticking out of a chunk of stone, and pulls out a giant chainsaw sword and revs it up, spitting sparks everywhere. -I'm like 9 years old and scared so I don't watch anymore, but I'm pretty sure there was a bunch of screaming and chainsaw noises at this point!

I suddenly remembered this scene from a film where this guy is teaching some kind of game(i think a card game) to people and he is taking their money as he smiles and says "fun isn't it?". HELP. This sounds a lot like the "stiften" sketch from Jiskefet, a Dutch comedy group. Wasn't a movie and it is all in Dutch so probably not what you are looking for, but it matches the description perfectly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZBHkJFcYII

I remember a movie can't remember if it was action or not. But it's a guy I think who's on the run for hiding some money from people and at the end he and someone remove a chalkboard in a classroom and the money is hidden there. I think the money is wrapped in like orange plastic. If I were to guess the movie was 80s or early 90s and it was in color

Not a movie, but a review of it, by Ebert. He said something like the movie was incredible because the creators tried so hard and failed so hard. I think it was a 90's movie but can't remember for sure.

Here's one I haven't been able to figure out for over 20 years, assuming it's real and not just a childhood nightmare. This would have been a movie in the late 70s or early 80s, presumably horror. All I remember about it was a scene of somebody getting attacked, and then a picture of a statue, possibly of Jesus, toppled to the ground and shattered into a bunch of pieces. (I thought I might have been incorrectly remembering the Exorcist III decapitation scene when I found that, but this was definitely not it, as it would have been around ten years prior to that movie's release.)

I had a random memory pop into my head. Some kind of 70s road movie (something like Every Which Way but Loose) and the main character has what he insists is a dingo. People keep trying to tell him it's not but he says it is because dingoes don't bark. Sure enough near the end it barks at something.

Roadgames I think, and I think the dog/dingo barks at the location of the body near the end.

A teenager or young adult wakes up in bed - but his bed is in the forest, or rather, a clearing in the middle of the forest. That's all I remember.

Hopefully this fits in with the spirit of this thread. I'm looking for a recognizable movie that has a scene where something bad happens after a character locks their keys in the car. It is for a school project in which we have made a device that will open the trunk when a secret knock is pounded out on the car body (think shave and a haircut). As part of the project, we need to make a promo video for the device. We want to make a spoof of a movie or TV scene where the device can save the day, instantly reversing the original plot and solving an obviously bad situation. My group was able to come up with some movies that involve people locked in a trunk, like in Hangover or Back to the Future. These might work, but we would prefer something that involves the protagonist getting locked outside the car and missing their wedding or getting stuck with a serial killer or something. TLDR: Looking for a movie/tv show where the protagonist locks their keys in car and bad things are obviously going to occur because of it. Ideally a scene that the majority of a college class might recognize.

I saw one in middle school that was really low budget. It was something like a couple of kids at an art gallery and the little girl drew a picture of some wizard with an M on his hat. I think they get sucked into a painting or something and end up in medivel times where some jerk wizard is doing stuff. The girls drawing cones alive and is a bumbling dorky Dom Deluise-like wizard with a baseball hat on. Sound familier to anyone?

Released in the 2000's, set in the 1950's, based on a true story. A girl is adopted by a single mother (her aunt?) and is abused by both her and her sons and I think a neighbor kid. The mother accuses the girl of corrupting her sons and imprisons her in the basement where the mother instructs the boys to rape her. Eventually on of the boys helps her escape.

I'm trying to recall which Western this was. The main thing I can remember is that there was a treasure, probably gold, in a train car that was buried in the desert. There was a big shootout using the train as cover, I think maybe the army was shooting at the protagonists? Any ideas? Searching "western gold train desert" and such isn't helping. E: I'm pretty sure this was in color, but it was from that period, not recent.

If it's not that one, you might try The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. It has buried gold, a train car, an army, shooting, desert -- though some of the specific details are a bit different than you recall.

I just remember there was like 2 or 3 episodes where kids got sucked into some weird town. One had a weird baseball game ran by a wizard.. And onto my own request.. Ages and ages ago, and we're talking probably mid-late 90's, I remember watching a movie (I'm fairly sure it was a movie or tv movie, not a tv show), involving a man who swallowed a snake while he was sleeping. He woke up and instead of being the normal/happy guy his girlfriend or wife knew, he was now evil!! And that's literally all i remember. The many times i've bought it up to someone they immediately suggest it's Doctor Who, although they can never say for certain, they just say it 'sounds Doctor Who-esque'. Google seems to just bring up real life cases of people swallowing snakes.. Ela fucked around with this message at 14:15 on Nov 29, 2013 |

My guess is an episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark featuring the character Sardo, he sounds most the part, and he looked like he had a backwards baseball cap on most of the time. He was in a number of episodes though, and looking at the fan sites is giving me a headache, so I'll let you research past that and see if it's right.
