What movie is this?

So my gf was going through a haunted hayride and they had this movie playing. She asked me what it was and sent me this picture. I thought Lights Out, but I'm watching it now and I may be wrong. Google Lens says 5th Wave but I highly doubt it. Any other ideas?

2000s slasher, Texan ranch, 4 college kids, one undead/zombie killer

I feel like I'm going crazy! I've been trying to find this generic slasher out of THOUSANDS for hours - to no avail.

I rented it around 2008. It's a horror about two college girls and two college guys who go to a Mexican or Texan ranch for the weekend - the parents/owners of the ranch are away. There's a scene where one of the girls is in a bra with a blindfold on and she has to not flinch when they caress her with a feather, but she keeps flinching so they stop playing. Later she tries it again on her own and the monster/villain runs a blade along her and she doesn't flinch. She can't see him because she has a blindfold on. Then he kills her. It was fairly raunchy - in one of those games someone undoes her bra I'm pretty sure. There's another scene where there is a divan in the basement and a guy and a girl are making out on it when they hear something. Something to do with a bell or ribbon that the guy uses to get her onto the divan? I can't remember if there is one or many undead but basically something buried comes up to kill them one by one.

They all go there to drink, and play games. they start in a lounge and end up getting split up. some happens in late afternoon when they arrive and then at night. Decent budget, didn't seem cheap. pretty blonde actress who plays the girl who gets tickled. I don't think they knew each other well before arriving at the ranch.

Genre: horror, slasher.

I'm trying to say everything I remember about it. Does it ring a bell to anyone? I think the villain is a buried body they accidentally resurrect and it comes up from the ground to kill them. they might even dig him up in the beginning. can't really remember much more than that...

If you can help that would be amazingggggg! Even if you're wrong :) Thank you

[Actress] Can anyone identify this actress from a movie?

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to figure out the name of the actress in the attached screenshot.

She has a short pixie haircut and appears in a movie/scene with this specific aesthetic.

Note: It is NOT Juliette Binoche or Jennifer Jason Leigh.

Does anyone recognize who this actress is? Any help or names would be greatly appreciated!

Halloween movie?

All I remember is a couple people opening books, whenever they open the books whatever the story is about comes alive, fx zombies. So they have to get these creatures back in the books to save the day.

Horror movie that was on Netflix

Back around 2020 I went to a sleepover and we watched this horror movie. The people I was friends with at the time weren’t a big fan but remember thinking it was neat when I was 14. I don’t remember the plot but I remember the main character was a woman who lived in this house. It was very much a psychological horror film. I don’t think it was black and white but the colors used in the movie very much seemed like it was. The house looked really old and decrepit, as well maybe she had just moved in? I’m sorry for being so vague.

Soviet movie about 3 guys trying to find a sacred place?

I think I saw it in a video… but it’s a soviet movie about 3 guys who wake up randomly in a field trying to find this place.

One was a pious person
One was an atheist
And the other was… I forgot

I think they believed this place would help them immensely

Help would be appreciated!

A Fatal Attraction type of movie

I remember a couple of scenes from a movie that is similar to 'Fatal Attraction'. I saw it a long time ago. It wasn't a major movie,. It was likely a B-movie. I'm almost certain I saw it online.

In one scene, a woman intentionally starts an argument with a husband inside her apartment. She sheds her nightgown and purposefully moves or pulls back the window curtains during their argument. The man's wife see this from another building.

In another scene, she pays a man to beat her up to frame the husband.

I vaguely recall later scenes that included a cabin and fire.

(I could be wrong about that)

A Google/AI search produced the following results but none of these are the movie:

Voyeurs

Gone Girl

Fatale

Body Heat

[1960s-70s] Black & white movie/show: people killed and turned into bread/loaves, floated down a sewer or river, creepy man collects them

Trying to identify something I saw as a kid, probably between 1967 and 1973, on TV in Saguenay (Chicoutimi area), Quebec. It may have been in French or dubbed into French. I honestly don't remember the language.

I remember it was black and white, people were killed and then turned into bread or loaves of some kind, and the loaves were sent floating in a sewer or river, where a man would fish them out of the water.

I'm not sure if it was a movie, a TV episode, or part of an anthology or kids' program. The local stations would have been Radio-Canada (CBJ) or CJPM.

Could be a European film, a fairy-tale adaptation, or a short segment on a bigger show. Any ideas appreciated, even partial matches! This scene has stuck with me for years but to this day have no idea.

Hong Kong/chinese movie

Hello I’m looking for a Chinese movie I watched from my childhood. I grew up watching a lot of Shaw Brothers films but I don’t know if this is in that category.

The film is set in some rural village in China where there is a courtship ritual that requires the boy and girl to sing to each other across a bridge. The setup is that male and female lead do not originally like each other, but are commissioned by two friends to sing in their place because their friends can’t sing. Somehow during this, they fall in love with each others voice without knowing the identity of the other.

At some point there is a rich man who is also courting the female lead, and at some point there is a comical scene where he straps on some Machine allowing him to shake his hips in gyrating motion à la Elvis, and he attempts to woo the girl singing the words 「你你你你你你你你真美麗、我我我我我我我我太愛你」 or something to that effect.

I’m guessing this movie was set in the 70s If it involved western technology and Elvis references. Anyone know what it might be?

Movie Name- on YouTube.

The movie was about a boy who grew up in difficult circumstances. He lived in a small house somewhere on the outskirts of town and was an outsider. He had a girl he got along with (as friends)—I don’t remember if she was his girlfriend or his sister. Later, he also met two older teenage girls, but his relationship with them was a bit strange.
The movie was—or still is—available for free on YouTube.
The boy had black hair; I don’t remember if he had curls or not.
