LesterGroans posted:Could be Wolf Creek, but you definitely see the killer in that. Yeah, it's that one, thanks. I recognise the poster. Reading the summary, it seems that it only had one scene where the bad guy snipes the protagonists. Obviously that's just the one that left the biggest impression on me. Perhaps I conflated it with something else as well.

LesterGroans posted:It's a really good movie, so you should definitely rewatch it. A few years ago I tried to find and rewatch every movie I'd seen parts of on late-night television when I was younger. I didn't get very far with it because so many of these movies were really bad action movies from the early 90s, but it allowed me to rediscover things like Boogie Nights and Traffic. However, there is one that I've never been able to discover a title for, which I've mentioned a couple of times in this thread. It was aired on one of the terrestrial UK channels (probably Channel Four) which was running some documentaries on video nasties and "the dark side of porn" and it was presumably chosen for its thematic consistency with the latter subject (this is also how I first saw 8mm and, amusingly enough, Showgirls). The movie was about a lonely, nebbish office worker who is obsessed with finding "realistic" pornography as a substitute for his unfulfilling love life, and eventually he decides to start directing his own movies to achieve his vision. He ends up secretly recording himself having sex with his new girlfriend and when she goes to his producer to try and get the tape back, he shoots her dead by accident, and the tape is released while he's in prison. Movie ends with him sitting alone watching the video and narrating about how people said he should have been in jail longer, but he'll never be free.

It turns out that Wikipedia actually has a list of films about pornography, it might be in there

Akuma posted:Oh gently caress I saw this too, yeah probably Channel Four! But I don't remember what it was, either... I remember a few other details from it: at the start of the movie, he's spending his time in the local park trying to invite young women to go to the theatre with him, which backfires when he successfully manages to convince a girl who he doesn't realise is underage to see Les Mis with him and he gets threatened by her family when he tries to pick her up; when he starts making his own homemade porn, he gets in troubled for filming it in his office; and there's one scene where he briefly romances a porn star who makes a secret recording of them having sex and breaks up with her after she says something like, "Not so fun being on the other side of the camera, is it?"

gey muckle mowser posted:Sounds somewhat like the John Ford film The Lost Patrol (1934) although that's not a horror movie and they were soldiers and not motorists... it was remade a couple times though including a 1995 version called Sahara. The 1995 Sahara starring Jim Belushi is a remake of the 1943 Sahara starring Humphrey Bogart. I do not know if the 43 movie is a remake of the lost patrol, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Kind of an indirect remake according to wikipedia - "The Lost Patrol was reprised in a number of films, the script was the basis for the 1936 Soviet film The Thirteen, set by director Mikhail Romm in the Central Asia desert during the Basmachi rebellion. This Soviet film was then adapted in Sahara, featuring Humphrey Bogart and the 1995 remake featuring James Belushi."

Does anyone know the name of the beheading video the kids at the party are watching on a laptop in Hereditary? I thought it was The Execution of Mary, Queen of Scots (1895) but upon further review they are using a guillotine and not an axe, so that isn’t it.

I'm looking for an old Japanese Film involving a group of soldiers surviving in the jungle. The Japanese soldiers where hunting monkeys but mostly starving to death. In one of the last scenes, the last batch if survivors were surrendering to an American jeep passing by. In said jeep was two Americans and one local woman; the local Woman machine gunned their asses down. My bosses wife is Chinese/Korean and thoroughly enjoys watching Japanese suffer in WW2 movies. So I would like to be able to recommend this film.

I'm not sure if this is a movie or sitcom or what. It's a person or persons convincing someone else that they didn't really mess with their letter or song or book or whatever. The person is like, "you changed all the words" and the people who changed it are like, "no, we kept the import ones... 'the' and 'he' and 'and'..." or something like that.

This one's on the tip of my tongue, but I can't figure it out. This is from either a standup comic (I thought it was Carlin, but I can't find anything when searching) or a character on a TV show says it during a rant or something. (Thought it might have been The Wire, but it's not.) It's a guy in his 40's or older talking about how the way to fix America is to just start a project building something, anything. Doesn't matter what it is, just put people to work building something, in the middle of nowhere, even. The rant continues with describing people then visiting the thing. The rant was definitely played for laughs, but had some truth to it. Edit: Found it, it was an old Lewis Black bit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kod1nIxteWQ codyclarke fucked around with this message at 00:18 on Jan 23, 2019 |

This one’s been bugging me for a couple weeks now, I saw it back in Catholic high school (weird decision), and the main things I remember are; a kid nearly drowning early in the movie and the same kid actually drowning at the end of the movie; a kid suspended from a harness throwing up in the middle of a school play; the main character’s biological father, who has been absent his entire life, turns out to be his priest in a third-act twist.

Simon Birch. You forgot “Simon is put in to his first little league game and swings and hits a foul ball that kills his best friend’s mother” That this is all less batshit crazy than the short story its based on blows my mind every day.
