Here's another one I just thought up: An English couple are driving through the countryside and find themselves in a narrow road with hedges on each side in the middle of the night. They're lost but the guy says it's the right way. They start getting messed with by another person or car. In the end it turns out that the whole thing was a ruse by the boyfriend for some reason and the guy messing with them was his friend. I have no clue why he does it.

I've got one: it's an old black and white movie. I think the main character is named Mickey, or something like that, and he's trying for one last score, so he can get out of the life. Or something. I think it ends with him injured, dying, finally getting to a farm where he could have lived in piece, dying of his wounds. There was also a subplot about a woman's murdered husband? I would almost swear it's an MST3K episode; in my mind's eye, I can see the silhouettes.

I've got two that have been bugging me. 1. Some kind of Alexander Graham Bell biopic. I'm pretty sure its not the movie with Henry Fonda since I remember this being in color, but I've been having trouble finding what it could be. 2. This is really vague, but I vaguely remember seeing in high school a movie about an African American family where a young child brags about knowing their multiplication tables and either their mother or grandmother chastises them for committing the sin of pride. I'm pretty sure its adapted from a short story or novel if that helps, but I can't remember much else about it and it irks me.

Was in the last few years and I only remember seeing a trailer for it. Everyone in the world learns the exact date and time they will die, and is causes some issues. There's a scene with a youtuber whose time is not up filming himself throwing himself off a bridge/building and implausible coincidences keeping him alive because it's not his time to die. God is depicted as a mean old man and I think it is his daughter who tells everyone when they die.

B-movie, horror, I’m guessing from the mid to late 80s, possibly early 90s, but it had an 80s night city vibe to it. Involved vampires. I remember one of the main characters being either a scientist or a science major in college, because part of the resolution was him doing something in a lab/computer lab, he was young white and I think he wore glasses. I bought the film because it looked like a terrible funny b-film, but it ended up being pretty good.

Ok this scene popped in to my head during a recent conversation and ever since I've been racking my mind trying to remember what its from and I can't recall the quotes directly enough for google to be helpful but if anyone knows what this scene is from then please tell so I can say "AH YES! That's it, of course..." A scene where an old man is telling a story about his late wife loved some ugly little figurines that he hated and every day he'd put them all in a cupboard and everyday she's get them all back out again and since her death he's never put them away again because they reminded him of her. It could possibly have been from a TV show but surely someone knows what I'm talking about. EDIT: HOLY poo poo IT HIT ME!! Ernest loving Borgnine in the first season of Home Improvement of all things... sorry to waste everyone's time Here's the scene if anyone is curious - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx2nthMOpsY Dragonstoned fucked around with this message at 07:19 on Jul 6, 2019 |

Some time ago I've seen a bunch of screenshots of a movie on Google, and thought it looked cool, but forgot what it was called. It was an artsy? neon-lit movie starring black women in main roles, possibly science fiction. The title was not in English.

I'm completely lost on the title of a movie. I think it was a Hong Kong film. Three men are holed up in an abandoned inn fighting off enemy forces in a snow storm. Two of the men are Army generals that were best friends but there's a rift between them over a woman. The third man was a deserter from the army (and possibly a drunk?). One general was in a red headband, the other had a blue one. The deserter gets killed by the generals, and near the end the one general blinds the other with crushed glass. I think 'three warriors' was part of the title.

My wife is looking for a particular piranha movie. It is not Piranha nor Killer Fish. Apparently a bunch of people were stuck on an island and tried to book it back to shore. There was some fat guy with them that distracted the carnivorous fish by being slow or something. She thinks it was made in the 70s or 80s. It could very well be a sequel to Piranha or whatever, but it is neither of those two we listed. Edit: My wife thinks it was Killer Fish after all.

My nephew swears he remembered some movie where a video game character came to life and chased around some teenager through a city. The character was apparently dressed in white and had a white mask with some black element to it. There were also supposed to be some other people with health bars above their heads. I think he probably fell asleep during a movie and dreamt it but I want to give him the benefit of the doubt. If somebody described the plot if Sharknado to me without me knowing anything about it, I would probably think it was a dream too.

What’s that one movie that became a CineD meme for a moment? It was a mockbuster of Cars, and specifically the clip that went viral of it was the ending, where the villain basically lines up all the heroes and has them executed. They’re eventually revealed to be okay on some bullshit children’s movie technicality, but the sheer grimness of the scene leading up to it was hysterical.

This was a horror movie I had on VHS in the late 80s. From what I remember, it was this family gathering in some big house/castle for a birthday. Some woman leaves a gift that actually contains some sort of weird mist that turns these old ladies into monsters who start killing everyone. The only other part that really sticks out in my mind is one of the guys in the house donning a full suit of armor before he gets murdered. edit: Found it, it was Rabid Grannies! ..........This is not a movie children should watch. haljordan fucked around with this message at 23:15 on Jul 8, 2019 |

What a strange movie that was. It couldn't figure out what it wanted to be. Spy movie? Disaster movie? The piranhas were probably the smallest part of the whole mess.
