I saw this clip on twitter awhile ago, it looked pretty recent and also had an indie vibe. This lady sees two hot guys on the street out her window and invites them up, they come into her apartment, sit down on the bed, and she tells them to be careful because the sheets are very expensive. One of the guys says "but they aren't even soft?" or something to that effect, and then the woman says, "Sometimes expensive things.... are worse"

This is going to be extremely vague and might be two movies smushed together. And also I didn't see this movie, I saw a review of it. So I'm probably missing important parts or getting parts wrong. It's a horror move from the 90s or 2000s. The setup is that the characters are going to a place to do like a reality show but spooky? I think the characters wear webcams and it's all being streamed live on the 'net. Also, and I'm very not confident on this part, I think they all have to get in coffin shaped boxes at one point for some reason.

There's an absolute dogshit movie I saw a while back, clearly trying to be a ripoff of Fargo with a dash of Tarantino. It's set up north somewhere, in the winter. An insurance salesman type guy somehow gets into a plot to rip off an old man for a violin that turns out to be worth a ton of money. The big twist at the end is that it was somehow a plot to rip off the insurance guy, and like everyone was in on it. The old guy, the violin appraiser, all of the insurance guy's friends and colleagues, even nameless background extras were in on this plot. And the plot required the insurance guy to make a ton of very specific and unlikely choices all along the way. Like, he had to turn down the violin buyer's first offer, if he took it then the whole plan would've been hosed. And if at any point he had decided to back out of the scheme, like say after people started appearing to die, then the plan would've been hosed. Just dogshit movie. Does anybody know what I'm talking about?

SiKboy posted:The plot sounds like a variant on a old (and famous) con which TV tropes has called the "violin scam" (Its in American Gods, and the Discworld book "Going Postal", among others). Googling "Violin Scam movie" suggests, 2011s "Thin Ice", https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1512240/ which sounds right That's it! I kept looking for a William H Macey movie but I'd gotten him and Greg Kinnear confused. Thanks so much. I loving hated that movie.

What’s the movie that isn’t Shallow Grave that starts with a shot from the POV of a voyeur looking through a first floor dorm window. The camera then tracks right to another window, and then right again to another window. In all of the rooms there are college girls having casual scantily clad fun. I know Shallow Grave starts with that but there’s another movie that starts the exact same loving way and it’s driving me crazy.

And The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot has him assembling the gun he kills Hitler with out of unassuming stuff in his pockets, I'm sure there's more examples, and it's always very good.

Just to be clear, I'm specifically only talking about scenes where the gun was disassembled in the first place for the purpose of deception. That part is very important.

I got a quick one. Old British movie about a motorcycle gang that becomes immortal. Super hot brown haired British chick in a red leather jacket hangs herself to prove her immortality. They ride their motorcycles directly into walls a lot. At the end it turns out they were immortals because of, I think a frog god. The "good guys" break the frog god's totem or something to make them stop being immortal.

All I can remember is a sequence where I think a man and a woman visit an institute for people with a disorder. Not a real disorder, a made up fictional disorder. The disorder makes them uncooperative and I think violent. An older woman works at the institute and leads the two characters around, and the people with the disorder cooperate with her. It turns out that she has a relative or something with the disorder, and that link somehow connects her to the patients. The woman is upset by this because she also has some kind of link with people with the disorder, and thinks this means that the older woman is trying to get her to work at the institute too.

I AM GRANDO posted:It almost sounds like the 90s Outer Limits or another sci-fi anthology. Any clue as to the period? 90s? Earlier? There's an outside chance it's from the 80s But I doubt it, I think I only think that's possible because for a bit I thought I was thinking of Scanners. But I checked the plot summary and it's not Scanners. My gut is somewhere in 1995-2015 It's very annoying because I feel like if I could remember even one more thing about the movie I'd instantly remember what it was. But I can't connect that sequence to any other movie memories in my mind. It might be Japanese.

mexi posted:So a movie I’ve always debated whether I actually saw it or imagined it: the main thing I remember was a woman trying to find a kid (hers?) and he is with this couple for some reason. Anyways, turns out the couple are some weird crazy torture dungeon people that make tapes so the woman kills them and calls the police. Oh poo poo no that’s real. I don’t remember the movie but probably the reason you think you’ve imagined it is that it’s like a weird vignette that has very little to do with the rest of the plot

I got one that I think is going to be easy. When I was a child there was this trailer that I saw a lot because it was either on one of our VHSs I watched a lot or was on a lot of VHSs. The only part I remember is they’re getting ready to execute someone in the electric chair and that song that goes “tiiiiiiiiime is on our side, yes it is” is playing

Oh poo poo, this has shaken loose another childhood execution scene memory. I must seen it in the mid 90s, no clue the context. A guy is getting set up in the electric chair, and they’re putting tape Xs over his eyes. It cuts to the people watching and there’s one guy who is visibly very excited to see the execution. That’s all I got.

Ape Agitator posted:How about Switching Channels with Burt Reynolds and Kathleen Turner? Ned Beatty is very enthused by the chance he might be the person among three to be the executioner in the blind panel. That said, I think it was a hood and not tape. No, that's not it. The tape is a non-negotiable part of this memory, it was definitely tape put on the eyes. And the shot of the spectators was about enjoying watching it. I think that's why it stuck with me, the technical detail of the tape and the idea of people enjoying watching someone die gave child me an incredibly strong sense that this was something I Shouldn't Be Watching.

I don't specifically remember anything fantastical about it. I know the spectators looked like normal people, at least. I don't have any strong memories of the people carrying out the execution, but they might have just not been a focus of the shot

Snowglobe of Doom posted:Faces Of Death? Against my better judgement I googled Faces of Death execution scene and it doesn't seem quite right? There's no reaction shot. But I'm going off childhood memory so unless someone else is able to pull an execution scene with taped over eyes out of a hat, I think I'll have to accept it was this warped by childhood perception and time. How the heck did I see a clip from Faces of Death when I was like 7 years old?

Anthology film, one segment is about a doctor whose hand starts rebelling, he cuts it off, mayhem at the hospital ensues as everybody's hands start rebelling. The connecting feature is a respected actor in a black leather getup at a carnival or something playing a creepy guy
