canepazzo posted:Crime movie, also 80s/90s; sort of a modern Bonnie and Clyde remake but the protagonists are in their early twenties. I remember the father of "Bonnie" is also the sheriff that is chasing them through their killing spree, thinking his daughter is being plagiarized by "Clyde". Natural Born Killers? Not sure, long time since I saw it, but the father of Julette Lewis is in it, not sure if hes a cop

The dad only appears in flashbacks in Natural Born Killers anyway. There are a few incongruities here, but could it be One False Move? In that one the sheriff's secretly the father of "Bonnie"'s kid and not her father and Billy Bob Thornton's Clyde-type isn't in his early 20s, but the other pieces fit pretty well.

The driver gets pissed, stops the cab and pulls his fare out and leaves. Torquemada posted:This sounds Spike Lee-ish. I don't think so. The more I think about it the cabbie was white and I think the above was a part of a montage of fares. The white collar rapper reminds me of Michael Rapaport but I checked his IMDB and nothing clicked unless I'm not remembering Kicked In The Head very well. The movie was probably 90s or very early 2000s.

One of the later super sucky Pink Panther movies managed to cobble up an amusing scene where Dreyfus is eulogizing Clouseau, ecstatic that he is dead, his psychotic giggles of glee coming off as sobs of sorrow.

I seem to recall a scene that I think came from a somewhat recent movie (like, 2000+), where a woman is on a subway train alone, where she is confronted by some creepy dude, who suddenly turns into a mannequin. There may have also been other people on the train who suddenly turned into mannequins. I thought it was End of Days with the albino homeless guy, but that's not quite what happens there.

Searching for a horror movie from the late 80s or more likely, the early 90s. I believe it was made for TV, possibly "based on a true story/based on true events". I think it had a generic name like The Haunting or The Haunted. I think the final scene was the woman walking into her new home, hearing the ghost's signature tapping or whispers. She looks resigned and defeated. Then text appears saying that she continued to be plagued by the spirit. Anyway, the scene that SCARED THE EVER LIVING poo poo OUT OF ME AS A CHILD... The husband is in the living room watching TV. The wife in her nightgown slowly starts coming down the stairs, you could immediately tell that something about her is Not Right. I can't remember if her face is already horrible or if it transforms that way as she gets close to the husband. But she has a giant opened-mouth, wide-eyed grin and she is staring at the husband the whole time. She throws him on the floor and mounts him in a sort of missionary position. Her hands are around his throat or maybe she has him grabbed by the shoulders, but she starts slamming him into the floor, possibly while shrieking laughter. Holy hell did that scene mess me up as a child, I'd love to revisit it on YouTube or whatever.

Well, disregard my previous post. I found the movie! I've searched for it a few times before but this time I was able to verify as the whole movie is on YouTube. The Haunted, 1991. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BaF-YgmBNk Funny how the mind misremembers. The scene I described plays out differently than I said, guess that's what 26 years does. Yet it's still pretty drat creepy. The scene begins at 46:17. That unsettling camera pan, ugh, and her face and expressions are just awful. Funnily enough, the victim is played by Frank Darabont favorite Jeffrey DeMunn. The ending scene remains eerie as hell. I'm so glad I found this.

As a kid, when I saw the Twilight Zone movie, the "Wanna See Something Really Scary" scene really screwed me up. I still have a distinct memory of the big reveal being a completely loving nightmarish monster, but when I saw the scene again years later, it's just a bunch of dorky makeup and a set of fake teeth. Edit: Actually, ok, this is pretty hosed up for a kid to see (48 sec) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETC6NSxpFFE&t=48s

This film actually came up in this thread a few years ago, because I was looking for a similar film that ended with a woman vacuuming, and someone calling her name, but there's also some sort of sinister whispering happening near her, and I think she slowly turns around and then the film cuts to black. Edit: holy gently caress, I posted this ten goddamned years ago   Rupert Buttermilk posted:Crappy made-for-tv ghost movie (man, there were a TON of those between 93-96, weren't there?) Any takers on the second one? It was during some sort of early 90s haunted house made for tv movie zeitgeist. Seriously, there were tons of them, same with those 'based on real events' disaster tv movies, I think thanks to Baby Jessica.

Hey, I'm looking for a movie for a friend of mine. The only thing he remembers from it is there's a scene where a band is backstage hanging around and then a cowboy with glowing eyes shows up and gives them a briefcase. He thinks the briefcase has drugs in it. Also, the movie is from the 80s.

Looking for a movie from the late 80s/early 90s. It's about a pro wrestler who got out of jail, and is just trying to do right by his family, but his criminal ties want him to throw his big comeback match. What I distinctly remember was the wrestler was bald and had a mustache, and his son had an action figure of him, and the film just used the old LJN figure of the Iron Sheik to represent him.

Your post made me think back to when I was a kid and we watched a lot of National Film Board of Canada movies at school, some of them really dark. Maybe someone can help me track down these films if I describe them? - a buttercup falls into a stream and goes through a series of locales and ends up getting destroyed by pollution when it floats into a city - a class of kids on Venus is excited because the rain that is always falling is supposed to stop for one day; a kid in the class is locked in a closet by bullies so that she will miss this event - a boy is told that his old sick dog will not be euthanized but when he goes to school his grandfather (I think) ties a rock around the dogs neck and throws him out of a canoe but the boy swims out and saves the dog drat, typing that out, these are some really dark films

A short from the 60s or 70s. In color, probably from Europe. A group of people are in a train car, each time it goes through a tunnel one of them disappears. There is a hunter who cries. One character looks in the bathroom, but no trace of those who disappear. Eventually it's just him and one other passenger left, who begins laughing when the train car is approaching another tunnel. I want to say that the train car is empty when it comes out. It's supposed to be a metaphor for life and death.
