I think its "The Monster That Challenged the World" Synopsis from imdb: An earthquake in the Salton Sea unleashes a horde of prehistoric mollusk monsters. Discovering the creatures, a Naval officer and several scientists attempt to stop the monsters, but they escape into the canal system of the California's Imperial Valley and terrorize the populace.

Doesn't look like it from the youtube clip. It looks pretty entertaining though.

It's about a group of people in a house or a small building that is haunted. I remember that when they entered the house all doors and windows shut and the bars on the windows locked, so they were trapped. There was one ghost in the house, and I think some sort of a cross, that when someone had it the ghost couldn't hurt him. And at the end of the movie they lured the ghost in basement and locked it there, and the lock was actually that cross.

That's the best description I can remember. Anyone knows this movie?
Still no answer :(

I'm looking for a horror movie that I can't remember its name. Please help me!

First of all, that movie is like Stephen King's movies. However, I couldn't find it although I have scanned all his movies via IMDB.

Story: A couple lost their son in a accident. They dediced to move to small town after the accident. There was a home in small town. It was like Stephen King's home and haunted by ghosts. Wife didn't work. She was always in home. I guess husband could be writer. Also, they had a dog. She begun to see certain signs which warn her. For example, she was listening to radio while cleaning home. She heard a voice in radio that said "By the way, this message is for housewife cleaning home: 10 days left... ". Another sign is that: She was awake by her son. She started to follow him. They went outside. She begun to sink in a swamp. Suddenly, she woke up and tought that it was just a dream. However, she realized that it was not a dream when she looked at her own legs. Her legs were muddy. There are more signs like that. End of story: Her husband went crazy. He tried to kill her. She escaped. She saw some muddy monsters in cellar. Finally, sheriff saved them. They moved to the city.

Do you know this movie?

I may not remember right but it seems like they may have been in the desert. The boys father(the grandfathers son) was searching for them and my memory is hazy but i seem to remember horses and a six shooter.

Sorry for the vague details but any help would be great!

Any ideas?

At the risk of being banned and branded by The Devil and the Board for this not being horror, I sought an answer, and posted this on Yahoo Answers. Devil have mercy on my body. :eek:
The answer came, born of woman:

Quote:

Maybe it's "Home of Angels" (1993/1994) :mad:
http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1800208204/info
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_of_Angels

A 12-year-old boy from Long Island, New York wishes to have his grandfather (Abe Vigoda)--who is in a nursing home in Philadelphia with Alzheimer's disease--with him for Christmas. On his own, he travels to Philadelphia and attempts to get his grandfather out of the nursing facility and back to New York. Along the way the pair encounter some menacing moments, a homeless man and an angel.
Co-starring Sherman Helmsley as the homeless man who protects them on their journey.

EDIT: I've looked around for a movie that was made in the mid to late 80's (or earlier) with the same plot but the closest I've come is one called Two of a Kind but I doubt that's the one you seek. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084832
I hope this is it. :(
Oh the morality!!!!!! It couldn't be further away from HoRRoR
