Features plenty of dungeons, a kid meeting friendly and grumpy goblins, etc. I was about to say no because I thougbt I remember it being one goblin but I looked it up and instantly recognized the cover. This is it. Thanks!

You know, I asked this in the "Identify a movie" thread a long time ago, and never got a response, but maybe someone here knows. I'm pretty sure it was an ep of an anthology show (though I could be wrong), and all I remember about it was the person (perhaps a child) had a tiny figurine of a stereotypical stage magician on their nightstand (you know, black tux, white gloves, red lined black cape, top hat). And I some point someone was alone in the room with it, and it's suddenly come to life as a full grown man. And the story ends with a shot of the night stand, and the figurine has returned, except this time there's a splash of red on one gloved hand, indicating that it killed the person. Anyone remember something like that? Davros1 fucked around with this message at 00:50 on Aug 15, 2021 |

On the face of it, it sounds like Ray Bradbury Theater or Amazing Stories, or one of those softer 90s scifi anthology series vs Tales from the Crypt or Tales from the Dark Side. Maybe Poltergeist the Series or Psi Factor? There really were a ton of shows like that.

Some of those undercover cops get real good at blowjobs. Watch out for gay bashers.

They used to be in a front page article but the links have been dead for years. Almost one year to the day later, I've finally fought with my dead Mac and was able to retrieve my oldest files. Here's a Google Drive link with all the audio I had saved from "back in the day" Something Awful. Not a huge treasure trove, but it includes some chiptune/NES style remixes of popular music, and the only song I retained from that contest, the lost hit Live From The Lab.

This one is dumb as hell. A rock song from, I dunno, late 80s to early 2000s? It might be have been a joke song or at least not serious. It has the lyrics "Look out!" possibly before a guitar solo? I thought it might have been Rocking the Suburbs just before the bit at the end but it's not.

Gonna be a long shot but I've been hunting this down for ages now, but here goes. It was a tv show that either showed on either BBC or ITV kids (I saw it coming home from school back in maybe around '02-'05) that was about a kid who's house got hit with a meteor or something, and inside was a parasite that attached to the back of his neck. It started out really small until time passed and it got big enough to see, it learned how to talk and the kid became friends with it but later on down the line the more the parasite/alien thing grew the more it was draining him until he was pretty much bedridden, I half remember a scene where the parents tried to remove it or something and this thing had grown tentacles and turned this kids bedroom into a nest or something and was actively fighting back the parents and anyone else who came into the room. I only remember it so vividly because after I saw it I was constantly checking the ceilings and wore coats a lot to try and protect the back of my neck, I can't really remember more than that other than it being an early 00s BBC/ITV show that aired around 4pm on weekdays. It didn't last long, but man it's stuck with me all this time.

Mr Darcy posted:Can you remember if it seemed like it was set in the present day (for 2002-2005) or if it was an older show possibly on repeat? And was it a UK or US show? or from somewhere else? Yeah it was set in the present day for the year that I viewed it, I can't remember the specific year either other than just early 00's. It was definitely a UK show though, and I'm not 100% whether it was a standalone thing or an episode in an already running series. I've looked through 'The Zack Files' since it was the same sort of premise about a young kid who has paranormal/supernatural adventures but none of the episodes in that are related, for the past couple of days I've been trying to dig through standalone tv shows between about '99 to '04 and I've had no luck, so maybe it was an episode in an already running series? At this point I'm probably thinking that I'm mis-remembering a lot of it but, I remember vividly the angle of the shot used when the alien thing jumped from the corner ceiling of the room onto the back of this kids neck when him and his family were inspecting the damage, and then over a couple of days he got really sick lying in bed until he woke up feeling perfectly fine, only to find a voice coming from the back of his neck as whatever attached (it looked like a small starfish initially) itself to him had grown a face and was talking to him, he had to go to school and stuff and try and hide it and there were situations where the aliens voice was getting him in trouble at school because it was talking and everyone thought it was him. Until it eventually revealed that it had grown tentacles (which further caused chaos) up until the point that it grew too large and his family (and I think doctor) found out that it was slowly killing him because it was parasitic in nature. I can't remember how it ended, just that it had set up a nest or something in his bedroom and when the parents came in to take it off it grew hostile and attacked them, I'm not sure if the kid died or if the parents managed to convince it to get off their kid and leave him alone and to go back to space or wherever it came. That's basically all I can remember at this point after having spent the last few days trying to hunt it down again.

Heinlen’s take was original, and I would love to a version with modern tech (as well as Starship Troopers with actual Mobile Infantry armor on the level of Iron Man’s CGI) because I think the idea is neat! Also, heading out to Jupiter’s moons to exterminate the PM at the source has a lot of potential for a sequel.

O.K., wow, this was a very brief but intense ride I just went on I suddenly remembered HUMAN.OGG and unsurprisingly finally figured out what it was from after five seconds of Googin' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RJY1jcMlSI But then the word "SCRAPLAND" suddenly reminded me of something entirely different that I am jonesing to find again, and I imagine it will either be remembered/found instantly or is actually a dream I had years ago and will never be found Someone had made a teaser preview for a terrible-looking video game (I do not think it came out) about fighting enemies made of trash/waste? in a junkyard/trash heap; I want to say some enemy was vaguely reminiscent of the Great Mighty Poo from Conker's Bad Fur Day, and most importantly the narration was absolutely terrible yet extremely compelling, with just a normal guy talking (with voice pitch-shifted down) about how intense and amazing your battles against the creatures of this dump were going to be The thing I can ALMOST remember but not quite was like the climax of the narration, the voice introduces the toughest monsters by saying like BUT THEN YOU FACE ... THE CRUSHERMAN (or like, you know, THE JUGGERNAUT or THE SMASHATRON or THE ANNIHILATOR or something not terribly impressive but implied to be) The narration might have ended with a line something like "WELCOME TO ... THE JUNKTOWN" or something (edit: by trying to repeat how it sounded out loud I feel like I remember a line like "ohhhh but that's not all") The more I type the more my brain simultaneously thinks it is about to remember what it was called and that it is totally made up This probably could have been anywhere from the early to late 2000s; certainly recent enough that it was all polygonal and was not the absolute worst-looking game ever.

The Tom Cruise version is not that bad as an adaptation, and it would be quite hard to convey the sense of horror you get from the original when the first-person protagonist gets taken over and, from one sentence to the next, starts narrating events from the enemies' point of view.

The spoilered stuff is why I loved the book so much. I read it when I was 8 and it was the first real “trick” that I’d ever really seen an author use, and I loved it! Donald Sutherland was made for his part in the movie. I do remember thinking it would be so cool if they could get Keifer to play the main protagonist under his dad

Back around 2010ish when I used to go smoke with my friends we had some go-to videos on YouTube, one of them was a creepy music video that had old-timey visuals like a silent movie. The music was ambient kinda electronic stuff, no vocals and possibly the dialogue was shown on cards like in silent movies? The video was a story of an almost Nosferatu looking servant/butler character, I've forgotten the "story" but this pale, bald, pointy eared man servant character skulking around in a Victorian sort of house has popped into my head from time to time and I've never been able to find the video - hoping it rings a bell for someone.
