Hey y’all. My family and I have been trying to find this movie for years now but our search has turned up fruitless every time we’ve tried. So I decided I’d turn the search over to the many more capable hands of y’all and see if you can help out. Here are the details:

The movie features a young boy and his parents. The young boy is possessed by a demon and starts causing havoc throughout the small town the parents live in. There’s 3 notable scenes from the movie I remember after all these years:

1. The kid and his mother are at a gas station and the mother leaves the car. The kid looks at some gasoline on the ground and using “demonic powers” lights the gasoline on fire and blows up the gas station. Then the mother comes, rescues the kid from the car and starts crying hysterically.

2. The kid and his family head to church for mass. The church itself is white and inside there’s a massive cross hanging above the pulpit. The priest starts giving his sermon and the kid convulses. Then using “demonic powers” the kid either drops the cross or lights it on fire, where it falls onto the priest and kills him. Then from there the family escapes the church before it is fully destroyed.

3. During the climax of the movie, after the kid is revealed to be possessed, he walks into the front door of his parent’s home. While walking in he says this line: “mommy, daddy, I’m home.”. After this he transforms into a demon and goes up the stairs to attack his mother. Then after some fighting, he gets killed by I think his dad and the movie ends shortly afterwards.

The movie looked low budget (B-movie or made for TV) and was fully in English. The kid himself was young (he preteen). I saw the movie on TV while staying in a hotel in Sri Lanka with my parents in 2013-2015 (I don’t remember the exact year).

If any of y’all could help me find this movie you’ll be doing a stranger a massive favor. I know it’s not a popular possessed kid horror movie (like The Omen, The Exorcist or Rosemary’s Baby). Best of luck!

woman meets a couple at a nightclub. They take a pill and end up back at her apartment having segs . Later she wakes up covered in blood. The couple is dead, maybe in the bed or bathtub. Police enter the home. At some point there’s a close-up of her face and she says “We’re here” in multiple demonic voices before the scene cuts away. It’s a supernatural possession movie, probably from the late 2000s or early 2015. Any thoughts?

Hi everyone! I'm trying to find a movie that I thought had a title similar to the French film School's Out (L'Heure de la sortie), but it is not that movie.

Here are all the details I remember:

A substitute teacher and a female student meet at a bar and spend the night together. She never tells him her real age. The twist comes when he starts teaching at her school and finds her sitting in his classroom. I just remember in the ocnfrotation he asks her why didn't she tell him she was underage and he never thought someone underage would be in a bar...

Does anyone know the name of this movie? Thanks!

Ah, the teacher was blonde if that helps...

I was watching TV with my family at night, and someone was flipping through the channels when suddenly a scene appeared showing a man with metal pipes piercing his chest; there were more pipes visible in the background, too. The screen was filled with these relatively thin metal pipes, but the man was being impaled by several of them as if he were trapped and he was covered in blood and screaming loudly. I don't know what channel it was on, or the name of the movie (or whatever it was), but seeing that made me feel both curious and scared especially since it happened late at night and I want to find out where that scene is from. That’s all I can remember, because only that part aired before the channel was changed.

Trying to identify a supernatural horror movie from one specific scene

I’ve been trying to remember a horror movie, and I can only remember one scene. I’m hoping someone recognizes it.

Here’s what I remember:

* It was a supernatural horror movie.
* I think this scene happens toward the end of the film.
* The protagonist goes to visit a relative (I think it was his sister, but I could be wrong—it was definitely a close family member).
* The relative is living in some kind of psychiatric hospital or institution (possibly another type of secure facility).
* Their room is completely illuminated—I remember there being no shadows anywhere. I can’t remember if it was fluorescent panels, lights built into the walls, or just an insane number of lights, but the entire room was bright.
* The reason for all the light was that something evil lived in the shadows. I don’t remember what the creature/entity was.
* The relative doesn’t want to leave the room because it’s the only safe place, but I think they’re eventually forced to leave for some reason.

Things I’m not sure about:

* Whether it was actually a brother visiting his sister.
* Whether it was a psychiatric hospital or another type of institution.
* Exactly how the room was lit.

Does this ring a bell for anyone?

The movie has a young couple living and enjoying life in country side ; but there is a scene where they witness a murder or actually murder someone (I can't remember). There is a lake swimming scene around the murder. I will try to remember more details...

Resolved - The devil all the time

[FOUND] I’m looking for a live-action TV show or movie that I watched as a kid, probably sometime between 2016 and 2021 (although it could be older).
Here’s what I remember:
It was live-action, not animated.
I think the main characters were children or teenagers.
Someone was connected to wires or some kind of machine to enter another person’s mind or memories.
Inside the person’s mind, there were many doors or small rooms.
Behind each door was a different memory that played out like a real scene.
One or two people were searching through these memories to find one specific memory.
I remember there being a time limit. If they didn’t get out in time, they would become trapped inside the person’s mind.
I vaguely remember the characters possibly being siblings, but I’m not sure.
Some details may be mixed up because I watched it when I was young, but the memory rooms/doors and searching for a specific memory are the parts I remember most clearly.
Does anyone know what this could be?
It’s NOT: Stitchers, Black Mirror, Locke & Key, Reverie, Inside Out, Creeped Out, or The Sarah Jane Adventures.

So I don’t remember seeing the entire movie only the near ending part of it, there seem to be a woman holding a advance weapon(gun like) she was fighting someone in like a observatory where they were taking about planets aligning and then something about a red planet or moon then suddenly it seemed to all align after that the scene shifted to a large space fleet orbiting this sandy mars like planet then a large army(humanoid) with sci-fi gear started popping and marching towards a command like tower they seem to be responding to this large force suddenly popping out.

DETAILS I SEEM TO REMEMBER
the woman
-she wore red/maroon like tight body suit
- she looked like a pale Russian
- she had short black or maybe long
THE army
- there were humanoid with power armor
- there were vast amount of them
- they had a fleet above moving slowly together with them to the tower.
ABOUT THE MOVIE
- it was not Japanese, pretty sure it was western
- the vibes were like late 90s and probable early 2000s to 2010s

I am searching for an old movie I watched when I was young around 1996-2004. (Edit) It might of been a rerun movie on tv which could be older than the time I saw it.

The setting of the whole movie was in a desert like area. There was a scene early in the movie where the main character a guy lived in a cabin with his woman and he found out she was cheating on him or playing him as a fool. They either had an argument or she saw that he found out about her schemes which led her to ran into the restroom and locked the door. She then partied in there dancing happy as the guy was slamming on the door.

I believe he grabbed a sharp object like a long knife and stab the door which when he stabbed it, it got stuck on the door as a part of the blade was sticking out on the other side of the door which startled her into a panic and she tried blocking the door with her body. Unforgivably because she was leaning on the door, the guy was able to brake down the door and the knife that stabbed through the door also stabbed the girl and killed her. When he realized what he just did, he left the cabin and started walking away from the scene and decided to walk along side the desert road.

Not too long later, there was a couple driving who saw him walking on the side of the road and decided to picked him up. The girl in the car was trying to seduce him as she opened up her shirt and even moved his hands to her chest while her guy driving. Her boyfriend was telling the main guy he was fine with letting him touch his girl but as the main guy kept rejected her advances the driver found it disrespectful and parked the car next to the road and pulled the main guy out and beat him down with little resistant.

After beating him down, the driver started to search his body for the main guys wallet and saw he had some money in it. The guys girl than said she deserves her cut and tried taking the money from her boyfriend and they were having a back and forth struggle with the money.

He soon was able to get her off of him and as he was walking back to the car counting the money, a large snake approached him and bit him. The guy then yelled for help from his girl and she assisted him to the passenger side as she took the driver side and drove off.

I believe these scenes happened in the first 30 minutes of the movie.

(Edit) more info - Okay I believe what happened in the middle of the movie was that the main guy found a new lover to tag along with him while evading the sheriff who was chasing him for accidentally killing his girl in the beginning of the movie.

In the last 20 minutes of the movie, the climax of the movie was about his new girl getting kidnapped and she was tied up to some barrels or sticks of dynamite in the open desert to bait the main guy to come save his new lover. When he did show up to the scene, the kidnapper and the main guy got into an argument and started fighting each other once the kidnapper lit the fuse which puts a timer for the main guy to win the fight and also save his new girl from blowing up.

Here's the most accurate version after incorporating that correction:

I'm trying to identify a movie I watched on a Hindi-dubbed DVD around 2016 (the movie could be older).

Here's everything I remember:

- The story is about parallel universes or a multiverse.

- The main character keeps traveling to different universes, possibly only after a serious accident or near-death experience.

- In every universe, he meets the same woman. She has a different life, wears different clothes, and doesn't recognize him, but the hero always recognizes her.

- The hero appears to remember his experiences from previous universes.

- I'm not sure whether the hero has superpowers or is a superhero.

The most memorable scene:

- The hero is in a boat with 2 or 3 people whom he had helped earlier.

- They are escaping from enemies.

- During the chase, the hero is hit by an arrow (or possibly an axe), falls into the water, and appears to drown.

- One of the men wants to jump into the water to save him, but a woman stops him and says something very close to:

- "Leave him. It's his destiny."

- "Destiny will take him somewhere else."

- She seems to know that instead of dying, he will end up somewhere else, possibly another universe.

- I'm not sure whether the woman in the boat is the same woman the hero keeps meeting in different universes or a different character.

The ending is the part I remember most clearly:

- It is nighttime.

- The hero reaches a small settlement near a beach or the sea.

- The houses are small and round in shape. (Certain)

- The roofs may have been pointed or dome-shaped, but I'm not completely sure.

- The hero walks to one of the houses and knocks on the door.

- The same woman he has been meeting throughout the movie opens the door.

- The hero smiles, and the movie ends.

The movie felt like a mix of adventure, fantasy, romance, and science fiction. I watched it in Hindi (possibly dubbed) on a DVD around 2016, although the movie itself may be older.

Does anyone know what movie this is?

My boyfriend is Korean; I asked him if he'd seen Knives Out, he said yes and proceeded to describe a completely different film.

The plot he described was about a writer who'd just finished a book and translators from all over the world were called to translate it. However, someone's murdered (he couldn't remember if it was the writer or one of the translators) and a detective has to try and solve a case where no one speaks the same language.

He couldn't remember a year or if it was a Korean film or in English.

(I think this is also quite a good idea for a plot, so if no one comes up with anything, copyright my boyfriend.)

When I was only about 8 years old, I watched a horror movie at a friends house that scarred me, and I’d love to rewatch it to heal my brain lol.

Key scenes I remember:

1. A man getting a hot curling iron shoved down his pants. I want to say it was a woman doing this to him, but I’m unsure.
2. Someone getting run over by a car.

It’s possible that part of the plot was a woman (or women) being held hostage, possibly at a cabin or motel or something.

Watched it sometime 1999-2000.

Only movies that come up in search with bits of this description are Sleepaway Camp, and Unfriended, both of which are not it.

I saw this move about 2000 to 2010. The husband I think was an academic, a lecturer or something. He was an arsehole to her. The wife leaves him and hires a female assassin to kill him. I think the wife also has an affair or sleeps with the assassin. At some stage the assassin sodomizes the husband with a silenced pistol and he enjoys it.
I think the husband had a beard and reminds me of Matt Berry (but I don’t think it’s him).
I don’t think I have anything else to go on. I think it was set in America. I think the wife and assassin meet in a dusty roadside motel.

Was at a friends house. Watched “formula 51” at the same time and we usually newish movies together. (We are looong out of touch so I can’t ask him).

---SOLVED---

Does anyone know where this is from?

I've had a look and couldn't find anything, "Para normal tv" didn't return much either.

Thought this might be the best place to ask.

-EDIT-

Okay, I've found that this is a reconstruction of the Travis Walton Abduction, but no closer to finding the source of the footage - an extended clip of the footage is shown here in a music video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKPTQvfNmCk

--EDIT--

I FOUND IT

Thanks

That’s all I really remember. A man tells her the big tree is magic. She puts her birthday invitations in a hole and then no one shows up. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Probably 1930s. Thanks!

Movie Found!

I’m trying to remember a movie I watched years ago.
From what I remember, there’s a kid whose mother tries to poison him by putting something like rat poison or medicine into his PB&J sandwich and a glass of milk. The kid doesn’t eat or drink it, but his father does instead and dies.
The father also owes money to the mob, so after his death, some mobsters come after the family and end up killing the mother. The kid’s uncle then shows up, kills the mobsters, but dies in the process as well. I think the movie ends with the kid being left completely alone.
Does anyone know what movie this is?

This has been bothering me for years now and I saw it so long ago that it’s a little fuzzy. So when I was little, I loved channel surfing and would flick through channels for fun. I think it was either on Spike or the Sci-Fi channel but I flicked past a scene in either a movie or a show, I didn’t stay long enough to find out. It was live action, the brief scene involved a mother and her child in a living room, pressed flush to the wall in fear. The scene was cast in a blue light and there was some type of storm in the center of the room—think like a hurricane or a tornado, lots of wind. There was a massive head of a man in the center of the storm itself, just his head, and he seemed unbothered by the storm and honed in on the mother and her child. The mother was holding the child to her chest and I think maybe she screaming something about how he couldn’t have her son? I think the head was of some kind of god or demon, something supernatural. I was really young (maybe 8-11). It looked like a modern movie (for the late 90s, early 2000s at least). It had both practical and CG effects, I remember the graphics were pretty decent by 2000s standards.

I can’t tell if I’m actually remembering something, I’m mixing several things together, or if my memory just made it all up. If this sounds familiar to anyone or if you’ve seen something similar, please, let me know. I’m losing my mind about this thing.

I’ve been trying to remember the title of a movie I caught on TV as a kid (probably sometime in the 2000s, maybe 2010s, but I’m almost certain it was in the 2000s since I was a little kid at the time, though the movie itself could have been older).
Here’s what I remember with varying degrees of confidence:
It was almost certainly an American movie with white actors.
The main character discovers a note or message revealing that he’d been tricked by the antagonist.
He chases the antagonist onto a commercial airplane.
During the climax, the antagonist convinces another male passenger to give him one of his socks.
The antagonist stuffs the sock into the protagonist’s mouth to gag him.
I remember the antagonist using (or pretending to use) a **defibrillator/AED** on the protagonist. I think he was pretending the protagonist was having a medical emergency in order to fool the passengers, while actually harming or restraining him.
A woman is also on the plane, and I’m pretty sure she says something very close to **“You killed my dog!”** when she realizes the antagonist has been lying.
The protagonist then spits the sock out.

I’m pretty sure the scene was also played out straight, so not an over the top parody or comedy moment

I also vaguely remember the movie ending with the protagonist and antagonist sitting on a bench talking (possibly at an airport or train/subway station).
I’m aware memories from childhood can be unreliable, so some details may be slightly off, but the airplane, sock gag, defibrillator, and dog revelation are the parts I remember most strongly.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

If anyone has any ideas or can recognize it, please do comment, it’s something I can remember so vividly yet can’t remember much else at all, it’s kinda driving me a bit nuts.

Update: It was School For Scoundrels

Thanks!

Hello! I'm looking for an animated children's film that was probably an 80s/90s anime (maybe even earlier). I watched it on VHS and it was added to a collection of Disney cartoons, but I'm not sure if it was Disney as well. I can't remember, but it felt shorter than a full-length film.

The plot was a race between two anthropomorphic animals (don't exactly remember, but one was a cat or a rabbit). It took place in a mountainous, rural region. Each of them had a pot of ice cream and was supposed to take it to the rest of their friends. One character went as fast as they could and the ice cream melted, the other took breaks to re-wet the cold towel that the pot was wrapped in and delivered the ice cream still frozen. The message was along the lines of 'slow and steady wins the race'.

While searching for it, I came across a tv show called Maple Town and Palm Town which seem very similar to the art style I remember (pastel, cozy), but I couldn't find an episode about an ice cream race so I'm guessing it's something else.

I saw it about a couple weeks ago maybe on Hulu or max but it’s like there’s this lady (I think foreign) who works for this man and the lady basically writes articles. She’s interested in this one lady/family in particular so much so to the point where she goes and drives quite a ways to visit the ladies mom and see her upbringing and the town wears a bunch of pink and red. The lady that the article is being written about accidentally pushed a dying man down the steps? I believe it was her father? She came over to “make sure he was actually sick and dying” and didn’t purposely kill him. HELP
