These are a few scary movies I saw a long time ago (80's), although this first movie looked like it was shot sometime in the 70's.

I think this movie was like 3 or 4 unrelated stories bundled together, you know... kinda like Creepshow.

Anyways, in one story there's a man, he's an actor, and he's vying for a part in a movie. His competitor gets cast instead, so out of jealously he kills him and is then awarded the part by attrition. He enjoys his success from the box office smash he starred in, but soon after he is haunted by the dead actor's ghost who appears as a grotesque corpse in the mirror. So, afraid for his life the actor becomes very paranoid and reclusive and avoids mirrors like a crazy man at all costs. No one understands what's wrong with him and everyone thinks he has gone crazy. In the end of the movie the corpse gets his revenge by killing the actor because he accidentally saw his reflection in someone's eye or something like that.

Ok, in another part of this movie, (or maybe this is from a different movie all together, I don't know) A man breaks into this room in a building because there's something in there he wants, I don't know, maybe he was trying to rob it? As the intruder slowly ventures into the room and searches about an older man spins around in a chair. The intruder pulls a switchblade and the old guy sitting down reveals a shotgun and says "how nice of you to bring a knife to a gun fight." then he blows him away.


Ok, this is the last movie I'm going to describe, it's unrelated to the first two. Also a little newer, I'd say late 70's early 80's. I can't remember if it was actually a horror but I remember it had some scary-ass parts in it. It had kind of a sci-fi theme, it's the future and instead of money you pay for things with credits which are actually minutes of your life. You've got this digital watch that tells you how many you have left. There's this guy in a restaurant that is about to run out and he's frantically running around begging people to transfer some credits to him. No one does and he dies right then and there.

Ok, well, that's it. I'm hoping someone in here might have seen these movies and know what they are. I would like to revisit these films and see what scared me so as a child.

Thanks in advance,
