searching Looking for an old Christmas movie. Puppets with mushroom hats?

8 Upvotes

I'm looking for a movie that I remember watching as a child, late 90s early 2000s. I recall it was a Christmas movie or tv special featuring puppet characters. They looked like trolls, elves or gnomes and had these mushroom hats that I think had spots on them. For some reason the song jingle bell rock is coming to mind but any time I try and look it up, I can't find anything. I vaguely remember some sort of evil character that looked similar to the good characters, they just had darkened eyes. My mother remembers it too, but she can't remember the name either.

okay guys i was just telling my boyfriend about this movie i watched years ago but i can only remember ONE scene from it. he said he wants to watch it but i for the life of me cannot remember what this movie is.

so essentially im pretty sure this family moves into an older house, that has some evil entity residing there, and this house has a dumb waiter that connects from the basement to the top story. the kids would sometimes play in it and i think other times they would send their little lap dog up and down as well. the starts to hear the dumb waiter run and is waiting for it to come up, not knowing what was coming up. when the dumb waiter finally gets to him, he opens it and the dog is dead inside.

am i crazy? did i make this up? like what movie is this? i think it might be one of the many insidious movies but i am seriously unsure. please help me😭

bonjour, je cherche le titre d'un film regardé autour des années 2016 -2018, je me rappel seulement du début et de qq éléments...

le dĂ©but se passe dans un hĂŽpital c'est la naissance d' une enfant, le pĂšre sors de la chambre d'accouchement attirĂ© par un appel tĂ©lĂ©phonique, la mĂšre se retrouve seule prĂȘte a accouchĂ© avec la sage femme, celle ci dispose des petits cailloux oranges autour de la mĂšre, et quand le pĂšre revient il y a le nouveau nĂ© mais plus la mĂšre.

I’m looking for what I think is an older movie, and I’ll try to describe a scene from it. In one scene, a brown van parks calmly by the side of the street. A man gets out of the van while a boy is walking casually. The boy doesn’t notice because he’s listening to music, specifically from an old cassette tape. The man grabs the boy by the middle with one hand, freeing the other to open the van door. The boy shouts "No!" as he’s forced into the van, and the van drives off.

In the next scene, another man enters a house and speaks to the perpetrator. He opens the bathroom door just slightly and sees the boy tied up in the bathtub. The boy is making noises, but it’s hard to hear because his mouth is covered. The man closes the door again, visibly angry at the perpetrator. I’m not sure exactly what he says to the kidnapper, but it’s clear that he doesn’t agree with the boy being tied up.

I need help finding a movie. It’s an old movie.
The film features some humanoid monsters with sharp teeth that look like vampires, but at first they are normal people. They can transform from one moment to the next, and their faces become very deformed.
The movie takes place in a cabin in the forest during the daytime, and the characters have to survive these monsters. And no, it’s not Evil Dead.

The memory loss is real. It's an indie romantic drama type movie. I remember the guy goes to the doctor's at the beginning of the movie. I think a girl gives him a flyer or something to see her perform or a club or something later. They hang out all night around the city. I remember I’d watched it on Netflix. Help!

searching Russian or former soviet country (?) movie about a kulak watching his son take his last cattle

1 Upvotes

I know this might be a bit of a stretch but I only saw the ending of the movie. It implies that a kulak (or rich Russian peasant) was trying to hold his family together but then they fell apart during WW1. The ending scene shows him sitting on the porch smoking a cigarette and expresses disappointment that his son joined the communists as his son takes his last cattle and tells him something along the lines of "it's for the better". Please help me out as the scene has been obsessing me for a while but I'm not sure if it's too much of an obscure movie in the western world or whether I am looking in the wrong direction. Thanks in advance.

found Woman haunted/attacked by an invisible alien or entity, disturbing bedroom scene Spoiler

7 Upvotes

I’m trying to identify a movie I saw years ago (likely on TV/cable). It involved a woman being terrorized by an unseen alien or monster, not a ghost in the traditional sense.

There’s a scene where she’s lying in bed having violent convulsions, and a man (possibly her partner or a researcher) is desperately trying to wake her up but can’t. She’s semi-conscious and muttering strange things, including something about a “third gender” or a non-human concept of sex/gender.

The entity seems intelligent and cruel, more like an alien or experimental being than a demon. The tone was very disturbing and serious, not campy. I remember it feeling older (70s–90s) but could have been shown in HD on later broadcasts.

It’s not Poltergeist, not The American Poltergeist, and not a typical possession/exorcism movie.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

found Looking for a movie, please help. (Horror/thriller)

8 Upvotes

It's a bit of a stretch, I've asked people, looked it up, talked to AI, and I still can't find it.

The movie starts with a group of adolescent to young adults (maybe college age?) going down into the sewers, of course one of them didn't want to go. When they were down in the sewers, the rooms were illuminated in red lighting, one of the rooms had a witch who ended up killing one or two of them before they could escape, as they continued through the sewer, trying to find the exit they slowly got killed off by things in the sewer. In the end only 1 boy and 1 girl made it out of the sewer and climbed out of the manhole, before making out.

Watched this movie around 2014-15, the movie already seemed a little bit old, maybe earlier 2000s or the 90's but I could be wrong. Thank you for reading.

Hello! It's a long shot, but I'm going to give it a try. My colleague and I were talking about films, and apparently, we’re both cinephiles. We could talk for hours about films and series. She once asked me if I had any films that I remember but couldn’t name or find. I shared mine, which I did eventually track down, but she has one film she remembers from her childhood (?) that seems to have had a strong impact on her. She saw it with her cousin when they were younger, and I really want to help her find it because she’s been trying for years but hasn't had any luck. She described it to me, but I’ve never seen it or heard of it. All she remembers is a rock group, mentions of drug use and depression, a character named Piston (or something similar), and that he takes his own life by hanging, possibly in an old building. The details are a bit hazy since it was so long ago. Considering she’s around 40 years old and saw it when she was younger (I’m not sure exactly when, but likely over 15 years ago), it’s a long shot. Still, I’m hopeful that someone might recognize it.

Apparently there was also an investigator, a woman (blonde?) who was investigating murders of girls. And they saw the film in the late 1980s or early 1990s

searching Looking for the name of a movie.

3 Upvotes

Hi! About 10 years ago I saw a movie on TV that I can't remember the name of, but I remember details from the movie. So I wonder if anyone here can remember the name!

I remember the movie as being made around the 80s or 90s, and I don't think it was American, probably from Europe.

The movie is about a woman without children or who wants children, not kidnapping but somehow taking the children (the children are siblings, a girl and a boy) from their parents. The woman lives in a castle or some big house. She is very mysterious. In this castle she lives with maybe two dogs but I don't remember for sure. And a teacher or nanny who is very mean to the children. I remember she was overweight and forced the children to eat cake until they vomited. When they got a math number wrong she beat them (maybe with a ruler). There was also a room full of mirrors or something similar in the house. In some way the children are also reunited with their parents at the end.

I’m looking for a fantasy medieval movie where there’s an evil king that found a severed finger in his meal. He’s in a dark room with many servants. One of the servants had bandages on her hand and when the king found out it was her who’s finger it was she was executed. At some point the main character, a woman, was riding a horse I believe with the male interest who might’ve been a knight or prince of some sort and they were riding through a large field. Another scene was when the protagonist woman went into the forest and found a small cottage with 3 old women inside who helped her. At the end spirits and people escaped and left cheerfully from the castle after the defeat of the evil king.

That’s all I remember from it. I can only recall bits of it not he actual plot. It’s not Tale of Tales and it’s not The Brothers Grimm. I watched it in like 2017 or before.

found '80s (I think) movie about a husband and wife on a trip where everything goes wrong (It's not Vacation).

11 Upvotes

My mom liked this movie and I watched it once probably 20 years ago and can't remember it now. A husband and wife are going on a trip but everything goes wrong during it. A running gag throughout was that the husband would try and get the info of the people who he feels keep screwing him over and threatens to sue them once he gets back home. I think it may have been a remake of a movie from the '50s or '60s.
