| The film I'm looking for is a Disney movie that I think went straight to video in the 90s. It is an animated film about a gas station that floats in the sky. I don't remember which characters where in it, but I think they were well known Disney characters. I would be very grateful for any information. Thanks. | Answer |
| I watched this movie some time in '08 on the cbbc channel, when I was in Scotland. It's about two boys and a girl who have a trolley and somehow go back in time to wartime Britain. They meet one of the boys' (I think his name is Johnny) grandmother. Somehow they stop the air raid signal from going off on time (I think they were chatting with the guy who was supposed to turn on the alarm) and the grandmother is killed. When they return to the present time nobody knows who the boy is. There is a weird dude who owns a burger place and apparently invented the burger (I think he was one of the kids who stayed back in time and told everybody about the burger). They return back in time to put things right, wearing costumes from the 'Sound of Music' to blend in, and change the events so when they return everybody knows who the boy (Johnny) is. I think it ends with them wearing their mucky costumes and the theatre producer having a row at them. This is a British film. If anyone knows the title that would be great. | Answer |
| About 10 years ago I saw part of a film on TV, but I have no clue of the name or even the plot of the film. Here's what I can recall; a woman is attacked by someone who breaks into her house, and when she gets home from the hospital she can't remember the attack, but she does have random flashbacks. One day at a fair/carnival (I think) she sees a police officer on a horse and starts freaking out because seeing him triggers memories of the attack, I assume he had something to do with the attack, but I'm not sure. I don't remember anything else I'm afraid. From what I can remember the film looked like it was set in the early 1990s and was probably a made for TV movie, but I'm not sure. If anyone can give me any information on this film I would be very grateful. | Answer |
| I just saw a clip of an old black and white movie in which a car pulls up to a gas station and the passenger is an alien. He argues with the station attendant and the driver, shoots them both with light and they both turn into skeletons. There was no audio with the clip, so I really have no idea where this is from. | Answer |
| There was this horror film I just saw on TV and I don't remember what it was called. A few parts of the movie stood out to me. One scene, this lady is crawling through some air vents in an abandoned hospital and she sees her mom's corpse who always abused her. The corpse suddenly comes alive and starts strangling the lady. There was this guy and when he died, a ball came out of his mouth that resembled a Dragonball Z ball. At an orphanage, there was this girl who rarely talked. Another girl at the orphanage beat up the little girl, and at one point the quiet little girl says that the girl that beat her up gave her candy. The candy was the ball that came out of the man's mouth. The final scene of the movie was this man's doorbell rang, he looked through the eyehole in the door to see who it was, and knife stabbed him in the eye. | Answer |
| A question about a movie: there are twin brothers, a car accident, and the wife does not know which brother is her husband. I would like to know the name of the movie. Thank you. | Answer |
| I can only remember one scene from a movie. People are fleeing to get onto airplanes when it shows a man and a woman. The man says that everything unnecessary must be left behind to make room - there's a pile of purses, books etc. The woman asks if she can take a picture of her parents, and the man agrees. Then there's a shot of people in the airplane watching something blow up on the earth below. For some reason I mentally associate this with Power Rangers, but that might not mean anything. | Answer |
| I can't remember if this is a movie or a TV show episode. It's setting is a time period that looks like Hawaii Five-0 (in fact it could be an episode for all I know). There is a group of guys that kidnap girls. One of the guys is dressed up as an old woman in need of assistance or something, then at least one of the girls gets away and the guys that escape the police start terrorizing her. Ring any bells? | Answer |
| This was a movie from the 80s/70s of bedtime stories that a father was telling his son. In one story, a truck and a car come to an intersection in a Midwestern area, and the truck will not let the car drive through the intersection. Any information would be helpful. | Answer |
| I am wondering about the title of a movie I vaguely remember from childhood. It was on television, so I assume it was probably made in the 60s or 70s. What I remember was a small puddle of brownish-colored goo with bubbles in it lying on the floor. The men in the movie did not know what to do about this stuff. I don't think it was supposed to be a horror movie, but for small child like myself it terrified me and gave me a hard time sleeping at night. I'm wondering if anyone has any idea what this movie might have been. Thank you. | Answer |
| I'm looking for a cartoon or a cartoon series that I liked when I was little (in the late 80s or early 90s). It was about some toys that came to life. Once one of the dolls, a girl with braids, I think, was broken into pieces and the others asked her "Where are you?" And she said "Here. And here, too, and over here." | Answer |
| I'm trying to find the title of this old, possibly black and white movie. I only vaguely remember what the story's about, about American / Western visitors to the Amazon, either on a holiday or for work. I remembered an American's guy continued search for his girlfriend / wife, who has fallen in love with a native and gone away with him. One scene that stuck with me was the woman lying relaxed (maybe naked?) on the kayak on the river through the jungle, while the native was steering it. | Answer |
| Looking for the title of a late 80s, maybe early 90s, movie about two boys that are left home with a neighbor while their parents are away, and discover that their neighbor is really a member of a witches cult. There is a scene where they witness a witch pulling someone out of a lake. Thanks for any help. | Answer |
| Trying to identify a movie from late 80s, I would guess 1988-89. It was about three brothers, all going separate ways, a coming-of-age tale and their father had recently passed away. I know that is vague, but any help? | Answer |
| I am trying to identify a movie I saw as a child in in 1970s. It was an old film, possibly 1950s or even 1940s. I don't know if it was black and white or colour as the TV was black and white. In the movie a man was following a woman through a forest or jungle. She would appear in the distance, dressed in white and glowing. She would be signing some sort of wordless haunting song. I don't recall if he caught up with her or not. I have been trying to identify this film for many years. | Answer |
| I am looking for a movie that used to come on TV frequently in the mid-90s. It's about a girl and her family and they live near a pond/lake. There is a boy who is friends with one of the girls and likes her. He goes to the lake to do/get something for the girl and ends up drowning. I've been looking for this movie for quite a while. | Answer |
| Does anyone know the name of a British film made about 10 years ago, about a girl who gets pregnant and her parents get her to marry an older widower with 3 or 4 children. Takes place in Ireland or Scotland. Her husband eventually dies and she marries a neighbor sheep farmer. | Answer |
| I am looking for an American commercial advertisement (I 'think' it was for a car or something in the 1990s perhaps) that features a man standing in front of a chalkboard, his right hand is solving a complex mathematical problem, while his left hand is simultaneously drawing a beautiful work of art. I am haunted and tormented by my failure to find this epic work. I would be most grateful to anyone who can help stop my pain. | Answer |
| There is a movie I recall seeing on tv a number of years ago. It involved a guy escorting a lady through a number of dangerous situations and ultimately ends with him pointing out to the antagonist that she is a "class act" which causes him to move so the "hero" can get a shot off. During the movie there was more than one instance where she was shown to not be "classy," and hence the "class act" line, having her act the way needed to have a clear shot. Not recalling the name of this movie has bugged me for awhile now. | Answer |
| What is the movie where a cop gets shot in the face and then has to put eye drops in for the remainder of the movie? | Answer |
