openSaw a clip and now I'm curious Film
Saw a clip of a movie out of context, and am curious to see it now, basically a sleazy boat captain brings two well dressed women into an information broker type named sherko/shirko, who is receiving a oral sex while sprawled out on a bed from a tanned brunette woman, he gives the women info about a butterfly collector they're looking for and that's where the scene ended. It seemed like an 80s movie from the video quality, and I didn't recognise any of the actors.
openMovie where guy cuts himself free Film
A guy waking up in a hospital room, wrists zip tied by the villain, and cutting himself/ his friend free with scissors. Could be Lethal Weapon 2 or 3.
openMovie about girls Film
I don't remember any title... I remember only two scenes. One was the blonde protagonist taking her bra/top off at some beach sports and two dudes (a young white one and an older black one) reacting. We don't see her breasts. Other one was a sensual photoshoot scene with a brunette (I'm not sure but I think she was the villain?) It is from before 2011, that I'm sure
openMovie with a boy, his dog and the boogeyman Film
I don't really have any childhood movies that freaked me out (idk why but ever since I was Young scary things are more fascinating/funny to me rather then actually scary) but to this day this one movie had a scene that creeped the hell out of me and I still occasionally think about. I don't remember much about the main movie but the scene I remember pretty well, its a Young boy I believe to be around about 10 or Smth pretty Young but not too Young, and his dog which I can't remember the exact dog but I pretty sure it was a golden retriever or a bearded collie. But anyway they were sitting on the couch and they started watching this boogeyman movie and the boogeyman was the most scary thing yet I remember it just being just a completely blacked out human, no eyes or facial features, I think it looked kinda greasy too, but yeah but anyway the boy falls asleep then dreams the boogeyman getting him and that scene in particular was scene that has scared me to this day. Other features about the movie that can kinda remember that might help was the footage was kinda grainy so I'm guessing 80s maybe for time (I'm 19 and watched it when I was like five, I'm pretty sure I watched it on 9go an Australian TV channel but it may have being a disc cause my mum had a tons of old dvds, but yeah I hope the info I provided helps cause I only watched this movie once I'm certain cause I haven't seen anything like it since and finding the movie means one day when I have children of my own, I can give them the same trauma I had from the movie
openBad monkey movie Film
I found myself on a page for a bad CGI Movie in which the main character is a monkey who was born really small and is more evolved than the others. He is the only one who wears pants because his voice actor is a comedian who puts his hands in his pants.
The comedy relief is a proboscis monkey.
openFilm that has an older man explaining to a younger boy about London Bridge Film
There was a film I remember but I can't find, I have no idea what the rest of the film was about
But there was a scene where an older man was explaining to a male child why the bridge he was standing on, had numbers on every brick. The bridge was London Bridge after it was moved. Thank you.
openAPP Christmas Oranges Film
A orphan has to leave her orphanage for a new one after sickness hits the orphanage. The new orphanage has oranges hanging in the tree as a gift to each child.
opena movie about a demon like "Fallen" Film
Hello, comrades. One of my acquaintances asked me to find a movie (episode of a series) He remembers three scenes: 1) A bald killer killed a young woman in a park with a small knife (hit her throat) when she started drinking water. 2) This bald guy in a prison cell cut his throat with a razor blade. Probably, there was a demon in him and it came out after death. 3) The protagonist of the film and the killer (demon) were walking parallel in the crowd and looking at each other and the killer was changing faces (appearance). Filmed presumably in the 80s-90s. This is not "Fallen", "Shocker", "Almost Blue", "X-files, 4-D"
I asked everywhere I could. Absolutely no one anywhere knows about this movie. Maybe it just doesn't exist and this son of a gun just mistook his childhood nightmare for a movie. But I still decided to ask here just in case. Maybe someone will recognize at least one of these scenes.
openEarly 2000s Comedy Film Trailer? Film
I vaguely remember seeing a trailer for a live-action comedy movie from the early 2000s when I was a kid, though I may be wrong on what decade or genre it is. The things I remember about it was that most of the footage was atop a pitch-black background with the characters well-lit, I believe there was a bonfire, and the thing I remember most about it is that the background music chosen was Kool & the Gang's "Celebration". Does anyone have any idea what I may be remembering?
openLooking for adult film Film
It's an adult movie, I'm think it was a drama and in one scene it shows a woman painting or something in overalls and her and her husband engage in intercourse and her and her husband have a friend that is non Caucasian and in one scene is wearing either a dark red or burgandy bikini next to a pool at the house and i think the friend and the husband engage in intercourse by the pool behind the wifes back. I last saw it in the mid to late 2010s on direct tv
Edited by BrotaroKubroopenMovie with some kind of weird fortune teller type person Film
This is gonna be really vague, so I apologize ahead of time. In the mid 90's I watched this movie at school that I only remember one scene from (indeed, I'm pretty sure I didn't watch the whole thing). It involved a kid (I think he was a boy) talking to some kind of fortune teller or something. At one point, the fortuneteller takes out this glob of bloody meat or something (it honestly looked like a giant meatball to me, although a bunch of other kids said "ewwwww", so I think it was supposed to be something gory) and jabs his finger into it, saying something like "This is Hell" (?) That is all I can remember.
openOld chess film? Film
There was a chess movie I faintly remember watching when I was first learning the game. There was a tournament going on, and in one of the games, a boy took a little girl's queen. I think they were both Black. She said "You took my queen!" and started crying, and either a director or her mother carried her out of the room as she wailed "my queen!" There was an overhead shot (likely from the ceiling) as the girl was carried out.
openOld "Lost World" Movie Where "Throw Your Gun At The Enemy" Works Film
IIRC it was a movie with a "Lost World" plot. At one point, the bad guy tries to shoot the hero, but all (IIRC 5) bullets miss. Then he throws his gun, which nails the hero in the head, knocking him out cold.
openLooking to find a Film Based on a Scene Film
Here is what I remember, and this is all I have ever seen from this movie: It's a young male and a young female in a bedroom. The male is dorky, and the female is attractive. The male rants at her for something along the lines of just using him as emotional support while she would never date him and then he goes on about she isn't actually funny or interesting and that guys only pretend to like her because they want to have sex with her.
I believe the movie is from the last 20 years, and I just barely remember this scene. I have no other info. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
Edited by JitteryMob397openAn old drama (French?) with alien sightings in the background Film
It's a really vague memory from the Polish TV from the '80s. The movie might be French but i'm not sure. It takes place mostly in one quite dark flat (not a house), the TV is on and there is talk about alien sightings but it's only implied, nothing is really shown. There's a kid in the flat who plays with his toy - a space ship (robot?) or something similar. There are also parents, or just one parent, and I think there is a divorce problem in the air. I'm pretty sure it's not an SF movie, just some kind of family drama.
openFantasy Film Test Screen(?) on Amazon Film
I remember watching a movie on Amazon Prime a while ago where the animation wasn't finished. I'm pretty sure it was from some Amazon-owned studio? And it was basically like a test screening? It was line-drawn animation, so the unfinishedness usually took the form of having somewhat messy lines and unfinished colors, though there were a couple parts where it briefly was uncolored sketches.
I'm pretty sure the main character was a girl, and she was accompanied by a Loveable Rogue, a fat businessman(?) who Loves Only Gold, and probably some other people I don't remember. (I'm pretty sure there were hints of a romance subplot between the girl and the Loveable Rogue.) I'm pretty sure the villain was an older woman.
The only part of the plot I remember much of is the climax. The MacGuffin Location was a spring in a cave where drinking it would give you ultimate power paraphraseI think somebody says something about the only limit being your creatvity, with three caveats listed by a talking rock. One of them was that you would lose your soul. The villain, upon hearing this, laughs it off and decides to ignore the rock, saying your soul is "like an appendix." She beats the heroes to the spring and drinks from it, becoming all-powerful. There's a lot of her decimating Red Shirts by various means. The heroes somehow convince her to take another drink from the spring, which kills her. Turns out, that was the second caveat. Somehow, the main character died in the fight. The Loveable Rogue drinks from the spring paraphrasewith some comment about how he's done too many bad things for losing his soul to matter, then he brings her back to life by putting his hand on the her chest and saying, "Beat." Then we find out the third caveat: if the spring's power were ever used for a non-selfish purpose, the power would disappear and the spring would dry up.
In the ending, everybody receives some sort of personalized reward from the king for their actions. The only one I remember is that the fat guy receives his weight in gold. I think the main character and the Loveable Rogue end up together, because of course.
Edited by KestrelguyopenMovie with a female serial killer Film
I remember once watching a movie that had a female serial killer who had a seemingly innocent image. One murder I clearly remember involved an Asshole Victim where there was a smug White male teacher who was first shown talking down to a Black woman who was the mother of one of his students. I remember that the female serial killer ran him over in the parking lot. However, that is all I remember about the movie. I had thought it was Addams Family Values but when I looked up about that movie, I couldn't find any mention of a scene like that in it, so either the summaries I read didn't include it, or it's from a completely different movie. The only other thing I remember is that it came out sometime before 2013, based on my memory of where I lived when I watched it at home.

They go on in to space with space suits. They will reach a mysterious place which they done know how it would be. one lady or guy (mostly lady) among them will deliberately removes her space suit at the wrist and surprisingly nothing happens to her and remaining people can remove the space suits.
This I remember clearly.
But in the final scene which I remember not so clearly. Some guy among them would become in to a supernova or some light is seen to be passing above their heads. They'll look up.
Please tell the movie name.
