| I watched this horror movie a while back, probably the early or mid-90's, and I can't remember the name. All I remember was that there was a scene where the main character's girlfriend is lying on the bed, stabbed through the heart with a spear. He's not supposed to remove the spear but he does anyway, and she later comes back to life as a vampire or something. Any ideas? | Answer |
| I'm trying to find a movie I watched in the 90s about a girl who used to hide out in a horses stable when her father was drunk, when she grew up she acted like a horse when she was nervous or frightened. A horse-hand helps her to get over this. Does anyone know what the name of this movie is? | Answer |
| I saw this movie in the early 90's. It's a movie with a teenage martial artist. His brother is believed to have commit suicide, however his younger brother is being haunted by his brother's spirit. He later discovers his brother's murderers are his so-called new friends. Please help me with the title of this movie? | Answer |
| Does anyone remember 50s TV shows? I saw a show when I was really little and I've always wondered what TV anthology or other show it was part of. It was probably never rerun, so unless you saw it originally, you probably never did. I've watched all of Alfred Hitchcock and One Step Beyond on Sci-Fi and on Netflix, so I don't think it was either of those. It may be set in the 1700-1800s, because they use candles or oil lamps. A beautiful young woman is sitting at her dressing table, looking into the mirror, and hoping that a new lover will appear. He does, they fall in love, and I can't remember what else happens, except that toward the end they're looking in the mirror together (I think - I was probably 6 or 7, so my memory is really fuzzy), and he disappears. The last scene is really all I remember. She's sitting, looking in the mirror again, and her hair has turned completely white. She hears a noise, says the man's name, and her maid says, "No my lady, it's only the wind." | Answer |
| I saw this scene from a black and white movie on television late one night in the sixties. It shows a group of children playing outside a mine shaft, arguing about whether to go in. The blonde curly haired girl calls the others chicken and convinces them to go in. There is a big explosion and after the smoke clears, she comes crawling out, calling Mama in a baby voice. | Answer |

| In the mid 60's I watched a couple of movies featuring a detective I think known as "The Gorilla". It seems there were 2-3 of these. Does anyone know their names or who they might have starred? | Answer |
| I am trying to remember the name of a movie. I think it was about aliens that look like human beings and infect new ones to try to take over the Earth. In the final scene, two aliens, a man and a woman have a human baby in the back seat of a car. They turn around and speak to it in gibberish, showing us that they are aliens. | Answer |
| I'm looking for the title of a movie I either saw on TCM or AMC. The main character was a woman. In the movie her husband leaves her. Towards the end, she leaves her sick child alone in their apt. to get medicine. While she is gone, a fire starts and the child is killed. It is a movie from maybe the 30s to the 50s. | Answer |
| A movie as I recall is a horror/thriller. A man brings his newlywed wife home where his father and grandfather live. The marriage was a farce as the family needed her for some experiment, possibly to bring someone back from the dead. One scene I can think of that someone would remember is where the grandfather (who is dying) asks his grandson's wife to undress for him. | Answer |
| I am looking for the name of a movie. I can only remember that I watched it in the 80's. There is guy that is dead or dying and he's carving his own name into his tombstone. In another scene he is being dragged behind a car. If anyone can help that would be great. | Answer |
| I am trying to find the title of a movie probably from the 80's where a man dies in a plane crash and goes to see his wife who is at a cabin, they have been having problems, they talk, work out problems and he gives here a doll. He leaves and the next day she finds out he had been killed in plane crash. I thought the woman was Anna Meara but can not find the move in a list of her movies. | Answer |
| There's a movie from about 10 years ago who's name I can't remember. It involved a young boy (and his friend?) who are coerced into taking care of an old woman. Some scenes include them in her attic, looking at all the things she collects, and busting her out of the hospital/old age home in her wheel chair. Can someone help? | Answer |
| I once saw a movie where a girl tells someone "My grandmother/mother named me Pascal because it was Easter." I think it's about a girl and a horse, or has horses in it. Does anyone know the name of it? | Answer |
| I remember renting a cartoon (possibly anime?) about 10 years ago and the only scene I remember is where a man is at the top of a hill and there is a fairy or angel woman in the air, and then he walks down the hill. It is steep, and I believe that you can see a town from the top. I thought that it might be "A Journey Through Fairyland," but the pictures look a little too dated. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. | Answer |
| Does anyone know what the first ever DVD easter egg was? | Answer |
| My dad remembers a movie from when he was younger about an old man living in someone's house while they were gone (squatting, not housesitting). He also thinks the plot somehow involved salt and pepper shakers. The movie would be older, probably 1940s or 50s; he's pretty sure it was in black and white. The title or more plot information would be much appreciated. | Answer |
| I saw a movie or show on TV as a child in the early 80s in which a man is accosted on a downtown street corner by thugs who use a large knife to cut him in half at the waist. He remains conscious after this and is carried in two pieces to a field of grass where he recollects his family he will miss, etc. Yucky. Never could figure out the name of the movie, or the point of it but it has stuck with me. | Answer |
| I was born in 1989 and I remember as a young child, a TV show on ABC (in Australia, in the early 90's i guess) it was a kids show and what i Remember is : there was an elephant painting a picture, then there were some bubbles and he became inspired to paint a rainbow. Now somewhere in the show (it may have been a different episode. i really don't remember) the elephant, and maybe some other animals were ice skating on a lake. there was also a part where two animals kept going down the fireman's pole at the station. This is really sketchy. and i apologize, also the show was like a claymation or using models. but it was all very smooth, not like fireman Sam or postman pet. hope that helps and hope you can help. | Answer |
| I'm not sure how many people watch foreign films, Asian movies to be more specific, but I would like to know the title of this one street racing movie. I think I saw the movie in the mid 90's, but not really sure when the movie was made. This is a live-action movie and all I can remember about it was that it had the regular illegal car street races, but also had a motorcycle race (I believe just one, but can be mistaken), the racer's girlfriends ride with them during the races, and in one fight scene, one guy busted a fluorescent light on another's head. | Answer |
| I saw this cartoon some time ago and I cannot remember the name. It was about 2 girls who fell down a well into a magical land. While they were trying to find their way home they encountered various people/creatures who lived there and would ask for help. One girl always helped out while the other did nothing but complain. I remember one girl was named Maria and I seem to remember a necklace being involved somehow. Can anyone remember this?? Thanks. | Answer |
