Not horror. Fantasy/comedy if anything.
I remember the cover had the human protagonist who's a young dude maybe 16-20 years old "leaning" against one side of the cover which also featured the creature in the film.
It was about this creature, that had come from someplace underground...evidently the main character had to help him/it get back.
...I seem to recall it had a fascination with shoes, and may have tried to steal the shoes of the main character.

I don't even know if or why I want to see this again, but the thought of it is annoying me.

Seriously? Little Monsters with Fred Savage, man!

horrorman 05-04-2013 02:45 PM

I think it is Little Monsters, too.

The werewolf film was finally solved. I am still trying to find out the title of the ghost scene I saw. This is all the information I have:

Saw in 1990-1991 approx, live action, colorized. All I remember is footage of a ghost (dressed in a blue sheet, probably a bridal grown; no face, hands, or feet, if I remember right) visiting a woman. I cannot remember what the woman looked like, but she had long hair, dark hair, straight hair, if I remember right. The clip went as followed: we see the woman laying in bed, reading, and she turns out the light, her room is then dark. She hears a noise, we then see the ghost slowly making its way towards her room, up one steps of stairs, then straight down the hall. We then see it floating still in the doorway. I think the woman calls out a name, Martin I think. The ghost then flies towards her. She looks up at it, screams, fusses, and tries to kick it away, it does not go anywhere, it just floats around in front of her. I think the ghost is a banshee or the ghost of her deceased husband, or someone else deceased. I cannot remember much else of the show, but it is NOT "the Entity", and it might be an episode of "Ray Bradbury Theater", or a show similar. It is SIMILAR to a scene from the 80s version of "Halloween", where Michael Myers dresses up as a ghost to scare one of his victims, but the sheet is blue, and the ghost did not wear any glasses, or had any hands and feet.

Could be an episode of "Nightvision", "Circle of Fear", or "Night Gallery", a made-for-TV movie: "the Haunting of Sarah Hardy", "the Haunting of Seacliff Inn", or "the Haunting Passion", or an Amityville Horror movie of the series. Did not watch any of these, but I know they all have ghosts in them.

Any guesses would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Strailo 05-20-2013 05:07 PM

Yes, I know, I dropped off the face of the Earth just when I joined. So bad. but anyways, I'm still looking for this movie. Let me go into more details.

I remember I watched this movie on Netflix at my ex's place. I don't know the year but I can tell you a few things.

1) Might be Japanese, or Chinese, not sure. Possibly Korean since I was big into those at the time. Chinese is my guess though...Don't quote me on that.

2) It had a woman giving another woman a ride to somewhere. She offers tea. That tea become a plot point later when it is discovered that woman B was poisoned by it. Plot point down below.

3) The first woman is a medium/psychic/whathaveyou. She tells the other woman 4 different stories about when she did a job or when something happened. It ended with the other woman's story. The first one was about her visit to a house where an elderly couple has their now disabled son living with them and shows why he is being tormented by two ghosts. Second and third, I don't quite remember what happened. But the fourth was about Woman B and a "murderous wife club" where she needs to kill her wife.

The whole movie ends with the husband getting his revenge in the end with the help of woman A.

4) I really, really want this name. Seriously. I want to watch this movie. It was good.

Yes, it's a ghost story movie. But still good.

Nope. Something like that though...probably a slightly older target audience.
I think there was really only ONE creature in the movie, and they were trying to get him home, which was underground.
I'm sure at one point the protagonist was arrested?
Maybe the thing broke him out...or it was arrested? I dunno.

Unlike little monsters, the creature featuring in this one was less humanoid. Looked more (from recollection) along the lines of the "good" creatures in the dark crystal? Maybe anyways.

I think it was learning to talk throughout the movie too.

I rented this movie back in year 2000, It was pretty old, color (non black and white), vhs...The thing is that I remember it was about some monsters coming out of a giant closet or something, the weird closet was open at midnight...So the monsters did all the scares and then after a long night of action, they went back to the alley where the "closet" look like door was... I was 12 years old so I fast forwarded the movie because it sucked (at east for me when I was 12), so my summary was: 1-monsters go out, 2-scare and kill people, 3-monsters return, 4-The end....

I'm looking for this movie because I want to watch it and see if my young mind was actually right about the movie and actually got the essential plot summary on fast forward.

No one will ever answer this. I have tried for years. I saw it when I was young and all I remember is that this movie (TV show, miniseries?) took place on an island. At one point there was a small (single engine?) plane in the woods (maybe with a skeleton in it) and that a man's tongue was cut off (and may have been placed under a floorboard). That's all I got. Gold stars and possibly cash prizes to anyone who can tell me the title.

Oh, since I saw it when I was young I would have been watching in the late seventies or early eighties if that helps.

Azusa 06-30-2013 02:28 PM

Hello I have a tough one I looked around and posted on Yahoo answer 10 times and haven't even gotten close and I don't even think my deception is 100% accurate, if someone does somehow get it, you'll be my hero.:D

Here is what I can remember:

It was about guys having nightmares
No freddy cruger bullshit.
I'm pretty sure it was a foreign film.
The dreams were extremely disturbing and he called a guy to his house to fix his phone or something?
I believe there was something about if you die in your dream WHILE it is raining outside you die in real life.

I believe one of the dreams had a "thing" on a tree and he was handcuffed to something and he couldn't get away and it was trying to get him?:confused:

horrorman 07-01-2013 07:35 PM

Unfortunately, I do not have the answer to your question, but you might want to ask this on the "I need to know" forum on the IMDB (the internet movie database). You will need to register, but it is free, and the people there are very helpful, sorry if you tried this already, but if you have not, it is definitely worthwhile. I never saw this film, but it sounds very interesting, and I would want to know the title, too. By the way, when did you watch this film, and do you know anyone who was in it? That would be helpful to know too.

Good thing it wasn't raining when you had this nightmare. Just kidding. You said you thought it was a foreign film? Why you say that? Did it have subtitles, or was it overdubbed? If it had subtitles, what language do you think it was -- or at least... was it latin (spanish-esque), asian or european? Were the actors latin, asian or european? What was the setting -- woods, desert, outspace? And take a guess at the year range it was in -- 1950s? or 1990-2013? Was it black & white, old color, new color? All these things can help someone tell you what film it was.

help remembering title of a movie
 
I'm going to start off by saying that the movie is not the Collector or the Collector 2!! It's older than those movies.


I watched it quite a few years ago so I don't remember it exactly. But, a family moved into a house I think it was just father, daughter, and son. They hired a guy to fix up the house and I don't know what happened but they couldn't open the doors and the daughter picked up a chair and threw it at a window to break it but the window didn't break. The hired hand fixed the locks on the door so that they locked from the outside and he put in unbreakable glass unbeknownst to the family.

Please help because I would really like to watch this movie again :)

Sculpt 08-05-2013 03:26 AM

I think that's called, "Now I've Locked You Out of My Outside!".


sorry, don't know that one.

metternich1815 08-08-2013 08:19 PM

What movie is This?
 
When I watched Ghost Ship (2002) earlier today, I was reminded of another movie that I saw a few years ago. Unfortunately, I can not think of the name of that movie. There must be some similarities between Ghost Ship and this film because I mentally link them together. The only thing I can remember is something about an illusive man (who appears at the beginning and possibly the end of the film) who tells a woman (who is the main character) to do something (I do not remember what, but I think that is what the film was about). I am pretty sure that, by the end, she figures that the figure is the ghost of her father or something. I think it is modern (or at least post 1980s). I also think she was on the ship (whichever ship that was) when she was a kid or something. I think there was something about a tape recorder too. I wish I could remember more, but that is all I can remember.

Sculpt 08-08-2013 09:02 PM

nothing definite comes to mind for that description. Some parts make me think of The Island, the The Fog 80 or 2005, maybe The Presence (2010)

I know that it is not The Fog because I know the original quite well and I believe the remake is pretty much the same. I do not think The Presence is old enough. because I saw it a few years ago. I looked up The Island and I do not think that that is correct either because I do not think that it was a sci-fi. Thank you for trying though. It could be one of SyFy's original films, but I do not really think it was that terrible, maybe I just saw it on SyFy. Maybe not.

Oh, I forgot about the sci-fi with the name The Island. Actually, I meant The Island 1980 with Michael Caine. I highly doubt that's the film you saw, but rather your description made me think of it. It's a father and son run into modern day pirate horror thriller.

Not really... and the remake was the first thing that came to mind.

If toothpicks shoved up the fingernail doesn't ruin a film for ya, you'd find it interesting. I love this description by a critic, "ragtag modern-day pirates live in a primitive island society, eschewing most forms of modern technology . . .They're kind of like Amish . . . only they're pirates." lol

metternich1815 08-10-2013 01:31 AM

My statement on The Fog was not clear, so I will clarify. The Fog (1980) is a John Carpenter masterpiece, in my opinion, while the remake is simply a pale imitation. They are worlds apart, I merely meant that their material was very similar.

Help me idenify this movie
 
Hello everyone, need some help finding a movie from I believe the very early 80"s...this is what I remember:....its not a "slasher" movie...the story goes its this house where everytime a new couple move in they get murdered by the original owners..something goes bad between the husband and wife at the end...the wife taking sympathy or something...movie ends with the house being shown to a new couple...a spider walking across a wooden fence at the end...I know its not allot but if anybody has any ideas that would be great,thanks!!!!

cheebacheeba 08-15-2013 11:03 PM

Was it just a husband and wife, or a whole family?

cheebacheeba 08-18-2013 05:26 AM

I've got one.
Not a horror movie, but one I recall seeing part of.
I'd say it was comedy by the tone.

Walter Matthau, was talking about his previous marriages.
He then told a story about having married someone who was a man.
I just remember him saying very wryly, something like
"That's right, I married a faggot".

I wouldn't know one of his films from another really, he's a bit before my time.
(Aside from "Tastes funny...tastes like paint...and wood")
Though I've wondered about this one.

Angra 08-18-2013 05:46 AM

Might be The Odd Couple.

cheebacheeba 08-18-2013 06:20 AM

I don't recall seeing the Jack Lemmon guy in it.
Walter looked older in this one too.
At a guess I'd say it was a 70's film. Maybe beyond.

Banshee 08-18-2013 03:42 PM

I read your post yesterday and have been racking my poor brain ever since. The only movies I could come up with that are similar are:

Death Ship (1980) which might be a bit too old, and
Triangle (2009) an excellent psychological thriller

Hope this helps.

Thank you for trying. Someone else had suggested those movies and they did not seem right, this must be a really obscure movie.

I used to love that movie as a kid -- one of the first our family had on VHS. I haven't seen it since, so don't know how it holds up.

Help me identify this movie!!!!
 
Hi everyone, I'm completely new to this site, and I'm here for a specific purpose.

I streamed a movie on netflix at some point between September and December of 2012, and I have been trying to find it again EVER SINCE.

I do not remember much about the movie....It was a very hazy time hahaha

Here are the details that I remember:

- it was a very low-budget movie, and based on the production quality appeared to be from the 70's or 80's
- the basic plot involved two couples going to a mansion that belonged to one of the male characters' family members. I think a grandfather or great-grandfather was some sort of deranged artist
- it involves the characters sort of running wild in this mansion for a time - i think they do cocaine a lot
- the end up having very serious hallucinations and very WEIRD stuff happens
- there are several scenes at a dinner table that are VERY F***ed (I dont remember exactly what, but I remember it being pretty gross - maybe cannibalism / self mutilation?)
- there is definitely a pool
- I think the main character is a writer, and he may be engaged to his female counterpart?

If ANYONE has any ideas for what this is - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!!!! I am DYING TO REWATCH!!!!!!!

Sincerely,
RRR

film demons possess man (moved into new house with wife and kid)
 
Someone asked this on a horror forum, and I was wondering what this is too. They saw they it some time around 2000, but it could be a movie from the 80s-90s. In the film, a father, mother, and son move into a house, and the father slowly goes insane and starts communicating with demons (or) spirits in the basement. There was a particular shower scene, in which the mother or son takes a shower, and the demons came out to attack them. The person also thinks, but is not sure, that the mother and son traps the father in the basement at the end, and uses the furnace to burn the house with him and the demons in it. This is all they can remember. I thought this was "This House Possessed" or "Cameron's Closet", but it could also be "New Nightmare" or one of the recent "Amityville Horror" films, all involving demons and shower scenes. Does this seem familiar to anyone?

hammerfan 08-23-2013 03:51 AM

Sounds like "Gothic", starring Gabriel Byrne, Julian Sands, Natasha Richardson (the one that was married to Liam Neeson and died), and the guy that played Peter Pettigrew in the Harry Potter films.


rrramico 08-23-2013 05:52 AM

Ahh it's not that one...there weren't any actors/actresses of note in it and im pretty sure it took place in the 70s-80s. There also werent any kids....

Well, sorry, that's all I got.

Looking for a zombie film- cant remember the name
 
Hello Horror.com I am a new member!

For the past few years I have been trying to find this either later 80s or early 90s zombie film, and I just cant remember its name.

The last time I watched it was in 1995 or so on VHS so here is what I remember of it and maybe you guys can help me out:

*It starts off with some kind of satanic ritual in a secluded farm house. There is an middle aged man and his wife. He turns into a zombie/demon and kills his wife. The farmhouse explodes (or catches fire, I cant remember specifically which).
*Group of young guys and girls come to the farmhouse years later.
*The film is essentially the group vs zombies/demons.
*The zombies bleed a lot of yellow pus.
*There is a last stand fight during the film with two guys back to back, one has a shotgun. One guy roundhouses a zombies' head off.
*In the end a demon appears (son of Satan I think).

Any idea what film this is? My brother and I have been cracking our heads trying to remember! It would be greatly appreciated! Many thanks!

Movie with midgets
 
I rented a movie once at Blockbuster on dvd. I know it was some time between 2002-2006.Okay all I remember about it was they had a cult or something at a high school. A group of midgets pull up in a car(they all worked at a theater show or mid evil times type place)I think the car may have been a really long car.Okay any help in finding this movie would be cool.

Hi! I need help finding a specific horror film.
 
I wish I could give you more information, but a scene from a horror movie has burned itself in my brain for decades, and I need help in figuring it out.

I saw it in my early teens, which would be 80's era. It was on HBO or another pay cable channel, here's what I remember.

Color film, feels 70's ish. It is dark and a woman is getting attacked, I believe by several men. At one point dogs are released in the distance, and at least one of dogs mauls one of the woman's attackers.

While the man is on the ground, probably dying, the woman crawls over to him and slaps him repeatedly in the face.

I've always been a horror fan, even at a young age, but this scene creeped me out, and I ran from the room. It has haunted my mind for ages. Can someone help me find the name of this movie?

Thank you!
Jen

Sculpt 09-16-2013 02:57 PM

I would have been watching in that time period and place. But sorry, that doesn't ring a bell. Could have been a Tales of the Crypt, which were horror ep shorts on HBO at the time. Probably would be a long list, but you could read a list of ep descriptions. If you caught the very beginning of this movie, you'd probably know if it was a film or Tales of the Crypt.

What Movie is this??
 
Hello everyone!

I'm trying to find the name of an old horror film I saw when I was younger. It's about an older couple who live in a big eery house (maybe on a hill or cliff) and they take in young travelling girls. One girl discovers that the couple actually kill, cut up and eat the people they take in. They put their victim's body parts in food and feed it to the newcomers (I remember a scene cooking soup on the stove with maybe a foot in it). One girl tries to get away and is flagging down a car but it turns out to be the couple and they bring her back to the house.

This movie is quite old, probably 70's or earlier. Can anyone help me?!
