I remember this one from being about 6 years old. I watched it on my 12″ Black and White TV and, for some reason, recorded the audio on a cassette! All I remember is it was set on a large cruise-ship and a ventriloquist had a dummy (similar to Lord Charles, if you remember Ray Allen’s act) who was often in a  suitcase and was (at least to some extent) alive. I seem to remember the film was quite light-hearted, and that we were to believe that the dummy was indeed alive rather than think the ventriloquist had a mental-illness. The film must have been made between the 1930s and 1950s and was black and white and English language (British or American, not sure). I also have a very vague memory of a blustery, British, brigadier type character with a big grey/white moustache. Various searches over the years have yielded nothing but I am not sure I ever knew what this film was called. Any idea?

A friend of mine intrigued me with his vague memory of a film he saw. All I know is there is a guy who is bitten by a rat and he turns into a giant rat (the size of a sofa). I think the film was French and it was certainly made before 1990 as it has been at least 25 years since he saw it. I want to know what it is so I can track it down and see it. Playse Halp!

I have had this film on my mind for years (seems to be a familiar story from looking around this site!). All I remember is a typical, cheap Roger Corman style sword and sorcery movie and, at the end, the bad guy is set upon and essentially suffocated/crushed by a huge “pile-on” of scantily-clad women. I was sure it was one of the Deathstalker films but having bought and viewed them all recently, I was upset to realise it wasn’t. It is also not The Barbarian Queen, though I have yet to see the sequal. I have hope that it may be The Warrior and the Sorceress with David Carradine but have yet to confirm this. I saw this film on VHS around 1989/1990 and it was certainly not new then. Any thoughts?
