Anyways, did it chop him up, was it a bloody film?

And hi to you my friend.

No, wasn't bloody from what I remember. The scene basically took place at a boat dock (hence the outboard motor). Guy getting attacked eventually won from what I remember. Before that IIRC it was some crazy fist fight type stuff.

Was it The Deep? Matches your time frame, and there's a fistfight with an outboard motor involved. Here's the scene:

Whoops! I mustve still had that from copy-pasting to another thread. Sorry!

Yeah, that one was tricky. I searched something like "movie fight scene boat motor", found a link to a book called "75 Best Fight Scenes", and in the preview there was a fragment like "...stunt coordinator Fred Stromsoe was suggested a prop outboard motor be used." So I looked up his IMDB, and thought a movie called "The Deep" made in '77 would fit the bill.

Wooo, I'm 2 for 2 on movies I've never seen! I like this game. :)

...it does nothing.
Late 70s/early 80s horror film. I think it takes place at sea on a large shipping vessel. They bring up some kind of biological sample from the ocean floor and it promptly starts infecting people. I vaguely remember the monster infecting/impregnating a woman towards the end and then turning into some Big 80s Guy in a Suit creature for the showdown. I think the title is like The Horror or The Menace, but it's not The Entity or Creature. It definitely predates Leviathan and Deep Star Six. Any ideas?

In this 80s (early 90s?) dark comedy, or action comedy it opens with a little girl telling a class or family a story that sounds very improbable.

It involves a logging town (logging baron, also a twin?) an inheritance(?) and possibly a murder. There are a couple of drunken hillbillies at one point. At the end the girl is vindicated somehow.

found it by describing it, natch, it was the twin part that helped

Holy, holy crap.

That scene at 21:44 is something I've vaguely remembered for decades, the guy getting "stung" by the barbed egg-thing. I must have seen this on television when it originally aired. Thanks for finding a movie I didn't remember well enough to even ask about.

I saw a movie as a kid that involved a group of characters with some sort of regeneration powers. I think they were aliens or something but they looked human. I think it ended with everyone being blown up and a close up on a severed finger starting to twitch implying that the guy still wasn't dead.

An asian movie about gangs (probably triads), much group fighting with weapons. I distinctly remember a scene where during a fight in an apartment a character takes a machete out of the freezer where there was also money or drugs.

Probably a bit of a long shot. This may have been a made-for-TV thing and shorter than a movie, but I'm almost certain it wasn't part of a series. All I remember is that there was a guy staying on campus at a university and he found some mammoth bones out in the woods... not a lot to go on, except I think it was Canadian. I don't think it was spooky or anything, just some kind of quirky slice-of-life thing. It would have to be at least 20 years old as well.

Half-rekindled memory of two people trapped in a pit with spikes slowly jutting out of the walls. Probably an 80's movie, I want to say one of them dies but the other managed to slip between the spikes and crawls out. The spikes moving instead of the walls is the part I remember most.

I like your style hombre, but this is no laughing matter. Assault on a police officer. Theft of police property. Illegal possession of a firearm. FIVE counts of attempted murder. That comes to... 29 dollars and 40 cents. Cash, cheque, or credit card?
This has been bugging me for like a year now. I feel like it's an instantly recognizable but not widely seen film, and I don't remember enough to catch it with any easy searches.

The movie's from the 1970s, possibly 1960s, maaaybe 1980s. (Pretty sure it was the 70s.) I watched it maybe 5-10 years ago because I read some description of a scene very close to the end, which is now the only scene I can remember. The main character is investigating some kind of conspiracy throughout the movie, and near the end they manage to get into a major facility of the conspirators. They sit down and watch some propaganda/brainwashing film, and for the rest of the movie (10-15 minutes?) it's harder to interpret the character's actions and motivations. The brainwashing film is the part that gets talked about, the reason I heard of the movie: for the whole duration, the camera's perspective is the same as the character's. Instead of showing the audience the character they've been following, and what effect it's having on them, you're subjected to the experience yourself and have to make your own response to it. I'm pretty sure the propaganda/brainwashing film didn't have any words, was just colors and shapes and sounds, and ran around 1 to 5 minutes.

Any help would be deeply appreciated. This scene is floating around my mind as a contextless piece of commentary on postmodernist deconstruction of viewer-subject distinction blah blah I can't even remember when or why I heard of it.

edit: Son of a bitch it's The Parallax View, a movie I was just reading about that reminded me of this contextless memory and made me want to know what it was from. Thank you, thread. This was much more helpful than just looking that movie up on Wikipedia. (Seriously, it doesn't mention the weird perspective-shift that was the key thing I remembered.)

You'll be ahead instead of behind. Hello!
Okay this is driving me nuts because I saw whatever it was not that long ago. But I also watch a lot of older stuff, so who knows.

A show, I think, with an episode where the main male character sees visions of a son he might have if something in his life were to go a certain way (a romantic plot, maybe?) But at the end of the episode he accepts, for whatever reason, that it's not going to happen and says goodbye to this imaginary son. It made me sad.
