Need to find an old anime of demon hunters that encounter a village where everyone parties all day and night. Some people vanish but no one cares and want to have a party again to celebrate life etc. When they discover a demon they say how everyone who came to him was sad and miserable but with his enchantment they’re all happy, why shouldn’t he feed on them as they were gonna die any way? They kill the demon and then find everyone in the village has killed themselves with the enchantment broken. Wanted this for an October movie night but I’ll settle for a November watch with a group of friends if anyone can help me out.

Maybe The Crazies or the remake? Jurassic Park: Lost World? One of the Resident Evil films? It feels like something out of a Bay/Emmerich/Bruckheimer movie, or a lower budget rip-off of those.

Thanks for all the other suggestions though! Hughlander posted:One that came up today... Possibly Return of the Living Dead II or The Crazies.

So, throwing out the names of other anime where the characters frequently come to a village with a demon situation, Dororo, Inu-Yasha, Slayers, Mononoke?

This was definitely an older movie sorry forgot to say that. Don’t think it was a series. The style definitely felt like 90s era or so.

Looking for a movie that's right at the tip of my tongue. On criterion channel maybe half a year to a year ago. Plot concerns a young woman disappearing in what I want to say was a native community in Alaska? Kind of a hauntological ghost story, long takes I think. Opening shot was a little wooden shack/church on an icy plain. Might have had 'St." In the title somewhere. Shot on film Doesn't seem to be on criterion anymore, at least that I can find.

The plot had something to do with a young native girl who vanishes and then reappears in the community like a decade later, and it's from the last year maybe two at most. I distinctly remember this being on the criterion channel's "streaming premieres" section, but it seems to have vanished. Thanks though!

How about Freejack? The abduction sequence at the beginning has then placing a future mobile time travel unit and they might have anchored it. Edit: on check though YouTube, they don't anchor it. Edit 2: what about the storm chaser unit in Hurricane Heist?

Looking for whatever movie or show had someone take a police badge and show that it had a pin for stabbing. I can't remember if it's actually used. I was just watching a clip from the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and he referenced someone being stabbed with a badge, which immediately put that oddly-familiar image in my head of someone showing a badge for stabbing. This is one where I feel crazy and weird for thinking of it, until the source is shown, and then I can be all 'see? I didn't just think of this on my own.'

I'm pretty sure there's a scene in The Shield where some guys had been impersonating police and Vic, the head dirty cop, picks up one of their fake (stolen?) badges and stabbed them with it.

This one is complicated: there is a movie that uses the Beatles' "Revolution" in its closing credits with a follow-the-bouncing-ball. That's all I can remember about it (I was very young).

I'm looking for a movie from the 80s or 90s. It was made in Eastern Europe and I think it's about a detective in a seemingly utopian world who is actually a serial killer.

I'm not sure of how much interest this is, but I wrote to Channel 4 to see if they could help locate the short I'd posted about. They couldn't, but something about the way I worded my description helped me crack the Google search and it turns out that it was Bait (1999).The Lobotomy Kid posted:I'm looking for a movie from the 80s or 90s. It was made in Eastern Europe and I think it's about a detective in a seemingly utopian world who is actually a serial killer. A long shot, but Dellamorte Dellamore/Cemetery Man, set in a picturesque Italian town, has a sequence where the protagonist starts killing people so he doesn't have to kill them as the Undead making a detective remark "thank god you have a gun, there's a killer on the loose!".

Someone told me to ask this here, so here it goes. Feverdream or movie? quote:I have a somewhat odd movie question. It's something that is stuck in a corner of my mind and although it's super unimportant, the fact that I can't find the answer is bugging me.
