...the ending is indentical to your description, actually.

When I first started getting into horror, the House on Haunted Hill remake was my #1 favourite movie - bar none, hands down. I used to watch it on a daily basis: If I had to count, I would say that I must have seen it at least 50 times - no exaggeration - the most recent being this past Halloween.

In the end, there is a crazy showdown in the attic. Our two surviving heroes - Ali Larter and Taye Diggs - are being run down by a huge ink-like shadow. Just as it looks hopeless, the ghost of Watson Pritchet appears and activates a pulley, opening a huge steel gate and letting our heroes out onto a small ledge. The gate slams shut behind them.

The sun is starting to rise, they both smile and laugh and are full of hope. An envelope is mysteriously pushed towards them from under the door. It contains the prize money that was to be awarded for spending the night in the house. They rejoice for a moment or two...but then the camera pans out, and we realise that they are actually stranded hundreds of feet abouve the ground, and the only way to escape is to somehow pry open the door, and go back through the house...

Trust me - if your description is acurate, this IS your movie. I'm currently at work, but when I get home I'll gladly post some screen caps for you.

thanks for clearing that op :)
i thought it was a different movie cause i looked it up on wikipedia and it said nothing about end, but that they were outside, so i assumed it wasn't the same movie. so i guess i was right all along, i suspected it was the same, but wasn't sure.

well, i feel much better knowing which movie it is. it's been bothering me for days, really :p
thank you so much. and screencaps would be great, cause i don't remember the end being like that :)

CrimsonFiend138 01-28-2009 03:25 PM

This prolly isn't a horror movie but does anyone know of a movie where...I THINK theres like a guy in a pool and a woman turns on this machine and shuts the pool cover on the pool?? I THOUGHT he had like a wrench or something to help him get out.

daninsky 01-29-2009 10:40 AM

I doubt you are thinking of this movie but there is a scene in Thunderball where 007 (Connery) is fighting a guy in a pool and they shut some thing over the pool so he can't get out. Then they release sharks into the pool but Bond just swims out where the sharks are let in.

CrimsonFiend138 01-29-2009 12:24 PM

I've been looking for it but can't find it, I'm pretty sure its like a pool in a rich person's house or something maybe in the suburbs or something.

Sounds like a scene in Carrie 2: the Rage.

Derek, desperately in need of a new power supply for the disintegrator, climbs a telephone pole (!) in order to cut the wires. Betty gets ahold of the “city electrical generating plant” (oh brother). She convinces the man on duty to…I don't know…he pulls a switch or something which is shuts off the power so that Derek can connect the disintegrator to the power lines. (Hey, that was a telephone pole, not a power line pole…oh well…let's just get this over with).

The other guy is right , it is Teenagers from outer space.

Hello guys.

Sorry if my english writing is a little off, im from norway. :P

Im looking for a flick that scared me as a kid and would really like to see it again, but i cant remember to much of it, some small parts only.

I remember him drinking something and turning into a beast of some kind, a hairy one(i think) i'm not sure if he was a doctor or not. Thats all i can remember for now.

Thank you.

No I saw this movie when I was about 5-6. Sometime in the 90's, the movie looked like it was either from the 80's or 90's. I'm sure no one prolly knows what it is. Thanks for the help anyway.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931)
He turns into one ugly bastard in that movie. :P

zombie654 02-01-2009 11:26 AM

Can anyone name this movie?
 
I saw it when I was pretty young, and all I can remember is that some guy in it thought he was like speed racer and he eventually dies. I also remember someone dies and it goes to a shot with a hand coming out of the ground. Does anyone know of this movie?

newb 02-02-2009 07:04 AM

But that was a comedy with no teenagers .

Race with bonus for dead
 
Hello, I remember an old movie (70th???) a race with extra bonus when you kill, say for example, a pope, or old lady or pregnant wife ...

can someone remember ?

Thanks anyway !

Please help me identify this movie!!!!!
 
I have vague memories of a movie I saw when I was a young kid. You know, the kind of s*&t that traumatizes you. There's a detective investigating something, there's a deaf girl...(alotta help I know) the scene I remember is the detective locked in a big white room, maybe a church, and a bunch of female vampires are closing in on him. I think they showed a clip of it on a Bravo show a couple of years ago..Does it ring a bell? It's been driving me crazy for like 25 years.

Demonique 02-12-2009 05:56 PM

My father has asked me to find a movie for him. I am not sure when it was made to I'll take stab and ask about it here. He tells me it was about a guy on a road trip across the U.S. All is going well when he meets up with a tanker truck. You see the trucker's arm out the window waving him ahead but as soon as the main chracter tries to pass another truck is coming the other way. For the rest of the movie the tanker driver tries to kill the guy in the car. It ends when they are racing across a field, the car makes a quick right and the tanker runs over a cliff and goes boom. I have not seen the movie myself but I hoped it might ring a bell with someone here.
Thanks a bunch for at least reading the vague description:)

That's Spielberg's Duel (1971).

Superman1 02-15-2009 12:10 AM

What is the other 1970s movie about Gargoyles, not Gargoyles (1972)? :confused:

I haven't seen the film; this post is made up from others' posts who have.

On TV in the late 60's very early 70's.
Takes place in a small town with a school and several other buildings. Had a castle (or maybe it was actually a more modern gothic-style stone building).
During the day, the gargoyles were stone statues atop city buildings. When night fell they re-animated (alive, through animation), flying all around wreaking havoc on all humanity. :eek:

One of the gargoyle characters was polite with a timid personality. :D
The costumes/effects were awesome, not like masks.
ALL the gargoyles had wings, not just 2 adults.
They were fairly sympathetic characters, if I remember, kind of like Quasimodo in "the Hunchback of Notre Dame." :rolleyes:

(If not confused with the other film) a scene has someone driving thorough the woods and a gargoyle jumps out and lands on the hood of the car. The car is driving at speed and you can here the gargoyle actually chase the car down on foot, jump on top of it, and proceed to beat the hell out of it

It's not the cartoon Gargolyles made in 90's.

desperate after the title!
 
I saw a movie a long time ago, maybe ten years or so, I remember it was the most horrific movie I had seen and still remember it as so.

the scenes i remember are one scene in what I think was a hotel room, on a very high floor, the man who was asleep in the room suddenly wakes up, and there was a hot girl lying next to him which he didnt know who was, he took a good look and eveything looked normal, then as he turns her over, the part lying downwards the bed was severely rotten and you could see the bone structure and the next thing i remember is that she threw him through the window, and down to a pool that was directly under the outside of the room, waaaaay down. he dies ofcourse.

this is the scene i think will ring a bell if any are rung, and do not mistake it with the "thinner" movie, cause that wasn't it! but she was a white female.

then the next thing is further into the movie, probably very near to the end, i can remember the girl (which i seem to remember was killed by the people she was killing) had a white dress, or maybe a wedding dress and then the people, or possible one man recognizes her and says her name, then after a short time, he gets killed. not much to go on, i have searched imdb after numerous keywords but no hits yet.
in norwegian the title was "gjenferdet" which means ghost or similar to that, but the movie was english spoken and the names translated to norwegian dont always have the same meaning as the real title.

hope someone out there knows the name of the movie!

Im hoping to settle a bet I want to find the title of a movie that came out in the middle to late 90s that involved a woman obsessed with crime scenes and decapitated heads

The Flayed One 02-22-2009 07:26 AM

First of all, wrong forum. I'll move this to the proper thread for you.

Second of all, Curdled.

Does anyone know these movies?
 
I've been having a good time googling horror movies I remember seeing as a kid in the late 70's early 80's. Most, I can remember at least some of the title or bits of the plot, enough to find the movie. However, there are a couple I simply can't seem to find. I have vague memories of these 2 movies, and one I remember seeing a couple times. They were your staple "shown on cable TV once a year" variety. Anyway, in the first one, I remember a woman in her home being hypnotised or something by someone (her son maybe) who had no eyes, and she went in the kitchen and strated cutting her own fingers off with a kitchen knife. I think she had her hand on a cutting board even. I definately remember the "monster" had no eyes, and the fingers getting cut off. I think this same movie at one point showed some little people (midgets) with oversized needles. Yeah, I know, sounds weird. I have no idea how any of this ties it together, but I hope someone will remember this movie (or movies). Anyone??
Second one, I saw a couple times, at least. There was a crazy person, or monster who was kept tied up or locked in a barn maybe? One scene shows a woman and a man starting to get frisky in the barn, and this thing atttacks them. I don't remember if it kills them or what. The "monster" just kind of grunted I think. That's all I remember.
A third one I managed to find was Lemora the Lady Dracula. Weird flick that really used to scare the heck out of me. I remember the little girl hiding under the porch and looking up through the floor boards. I'd love to see that again as an adult.
Thanks.

One girl is white and one is black and the bikers eventually end up at the girls parents house .towards the end one of the killers shoots the father with a shotgun and kills the mother. i cannot find the name of it anywhere any assistance would be great.

The films is David DeFalco's much loved CHAOS.

It actually started life as a Last House remake with David Hess and Marc Sheffler from the original movie involved but they dropped out - mu guess is prolly because the directors seems to be such a cool guy...

bdub_1 03-10-2009 12:47 PM

yes thank you
 
yes it is chaos thank you. i have been going through stacks of my dvds to look for it and you solved my problem. i really, really appreciate it. thank you thank you thank you, brian
