Movie opens with a girl’s suicide

I’m pretty sure it was a movie, but the opening scene is a teenaged (?) girl who places a clear plastic bag over her head and duct tapes it closed around her neck.  She then zip ties her hands behind her back.  As her body convulses, she falls to the floor.  It freaked me out so much I closed the window.  I may have seen it about a year or two ago … maybe on Netflix?  Not sure if it was a movie, or something like Black Mirror or Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities.

i remember this movie? idk what title

There was this one movie I watched as a kid which I think started with a scene with these 2 kids, or teens, a girl, and a boy, who were walking along a dock and the girl broke through the dock near the edge of this water body, i think it was a lake. She screamed for the boy to get help, and when he ran to get help, I think he got hit by a car at the end of the scene, i think it was the first scene in the movie or show. From my memory, the scene was in colour and looked to be released during the late 2000s or early 2010s.

Old kind of funny movie only Black man on the island

So….I want to find this movie its an old English film but I don’t know the name or any actor or actress name…in the movie there’s a small island , a village and there is a black man I think the character name was timmy and he was the only black man in the small village/island i guess and there’s a white woman with a little girl…other name I could remember from this I think Collin marina or katarina something like that and there’s also an old rich man who had a deal with Japanese and announced during a cheerful ceremony in church that he wanted to use the land for tourism and everyone should sale their pieces of property

And in a church there was an old man who played guitar emm in a rocking way…

The black man is an mc and he’s like a fun character…he tells the little girl he knows kung-fu/martial arts and when there’s a fight he tries to mimic some

 

I only remember this much…I tried asking on reddit but no result

a k-drama about a girl running away from home (around 2015-2019)

hi! i’ve been looking for this movie for a long time already and have no idea what it is.

so, it’s a k-drama, and as far as i remember and if my memory isn’t messing with me (because i just found a k-drama with an identical name (Who Are You: School) that aired in 2015 as well, and i watched it years ago as well but it wasn’t what i was looking for), it was called “school” and i remember the release date being 2015 or 2019.

i have a few scenes i remember: first is a girl running away from home with a backpack near the condominium building she lived in (i remember some more details like her mother screaming at her out of the window and the girl’s things falling out of her backpack but i don’t know if these were in the movie). next scene is the girl coming to a house, probably of her family (sister or something), and the sister is hanging the laundry in the backyard. the ending scene is the girl silently looking into a window as she sits in a bus.

i would appreciate any help. thanks!

That one movie where they went down the stairs oddly

I watched this movie 15 or more years ago.  It was in color, and in English.  The one scene that sticks in my head is when the male and female character are coming down the stairs.  They did a whole choreographed series of maneuvers, stepping up and back, left and right, stepping in different directions, sometimes side-by-side, sometimes not.  I think (not very sure) that the film may have had a single-word title, and it might have been a made-up/nonsense/fantastical word.  It’s definitely a B-movie (maybe C or D?) like something Troma might have done, but it wasn’t a Troma flick.  It was a weird movie, not sure what actual genre it belonged in.  Sorry that’s all I can remember, but I have been wracking my brain for a couple of years now, and I just found this site.

Alice in Wonderland but not?

it was a movie called Alice in Wonderland but it was not a Disney film, it was in 3d, the mad hatter was a gentler younger lad, Alice had brow hair and a dog, tweedle dee and tweedle dumb where hippos that guarded the queens’ palace, I don’t remember much past that

It was around 2014-2018 when I watched it but it probably came from the 2000s and no matter where I look I can’t seem to find the movie and it’s bothering me.

Kid enters a door and is taken to another world

I am in a desperate search for this movie . I have been looking for many many many years , even chat GPT couldn’t help me . No one seems to know anything about this movie . Here is the description the best i can .

I have posted this almost everywhere , no answer .

I watched it somewhere in 2011 – 2012 , a kid entered a door and he was taken to a different parallel universe of sorts ,where he was captured by some kids his age that lived in a jungle in a small castle thing , they later became his friends and the real enemies were the government who caught those kids and put them in a machine and turned them into grown men to fight for the government . ( sort of like in the avengers where captain America was transformed into a muscular man only they were transformed into grown men from children ) The government also had an arena where they put enemies there like the children , and they had to fight this huge metal circle ball robot with tentacles . Later in the movie the protagonist ( the kid ) finds the control room of the robot and destroys their arena or their city i think . In the end he returns to the real world and his mom finds him, and cries because nobody believes him in what happened . I also remember a phoenix type bird in the movie living on a hill with eggs , the kid helped bring an egg back to its nest because it fell .

some FACTS.
1 ) I do not remember what language the movie was in i am assuming English .
2 ) I do not remember any actors
3 ) This was not an anime , cartoon or anything like that .

Forever grateful to whoever helps me locate this nostalgic gem.

 

It’s not Narnia or Maze runner or City of ember

Old movie from the 30s or 40s about these three little kids who had three ants that three aunts who were fearsome

Hi,

I’m not sure if this movie was called. I remember Mamma. I looked up the plot and it didn’t seem to be this movie but I remember these three little kids that lived either with an uncle who looked after them. Anyway, they had these three aunts these kids do not like. They had the uncle who always had an angry look on his face. I remember seeing where he asked the three kids if they were afraid of him and they said Yes. Then he screamed at them and said but why? Then he looked at them and asked do you like the aunts? They said no, and they gave whatever reason it was. His facial expression was priceless because it looked like he was gonna explode on them and they were scared. But then he burst out laughing and tell the kids they were correct that it was all true. They ended up building a strong bond with this uncle and they grew fond of him and he grew fond of them. Does anybody remember this movie?

Through this door into a parallel universe.

I’m trying to find a little known sci-fi movie I streamed quite a few years ago. It’s in color, in American English and had no actors who were well-known (at least not to me). From the quality of the picture, it was probably made the last 30 years or so.

When the main character goes through certain doors he keeps getting transported to an alternate universe/parallel reality which is very similar but still substantially different. He’s trying to get back to his original one.

There was a blonde, who was a love interest later in the movie (the actress who played her was a female wrestler in real life). The guy’s wife or original girlfriend somehow shows up, opens the door and throws the blonde through the door and, when they reopen the door, of course she’s gone.
It seems the guy may have had a daughter with him during the early part of the movie. I’m not sure of that, though; it’s been a long time since I’ve seen it.
Ring any bells?

Christmas Carol

As we know, there have been many, many Christmas Carol adaptations based on one of Charles Dickens’s novels: both movies, shows, and shorts for years.

However, there is one Christmas Carol I’ve been trying to look for. It’s a cartoon and in one scene, I remember the Ghost of Christmas Present momentarily appearing and looking a lot like Santa Claus during a song.

If anyone knows which version is it, please let me know as soon as possible.

Cruel criminal really loves his son

My daughter says we watched this movie a few years ago. I don’t remember it at all.

She describes a man, apparently a single father, who is a criminal and treats his son cruelly.

Her key memory is at the end, when they’re being chased by police. A tire is shot out, forcing them to stop, and the father knows what’s coming so tells his son to get away and find help, and when his son exits the car the father is shot and killed.

Anyone know what this is? My daughter can’t remember any more details but this movie would have been in colour, probably less than 25 years old, and probably American.

It’s not “Road to Perdition” or “Mud” (AI suggestions).

Please help me find this vampire horror movie

I saw this on TV as a kid between 2006-2008.

A scene shows a man entering some castle(?) room, sees a blood (or something red) puddle, a few naked women crawl out of it, then attract him to sit with them, they start kissing him and suddenly bite him with vampire fangs. After that (not sure) they drag him back into the puddle. Not sure if even a word was spoken during the scene, movie was colored and not too old as i recall.

I’ve tried my very best with GPT but he’s useless in this case

Spanish translation Zorro episode #2

I know this site is for finding out movie titles, but somehow, I need help finding out what 2 people are saying in Spanish in this Zorro episode and I feel like this site is my only hope.

I tried translating the video on every site possible, but to no avail. I hardly have friends who speak Spanish too.

Please, if anyone here speaks fluent Spanish, I need to know what the bandit leader is saying in Spanish from 32:05 till 32:15 approx of this movie clip on YouTube below.

PS: Feel free to use Reddit if possible too.

Skinemax 90s movie: Married couple are sexually bored, split up, he hooks up with hot new girl…

… and she’s young, stunning, sexy, everything. He ends fulfilling all his sexual fantasies with her (threesomes with her hot friends, etc.) but she is pretty vapid and emptyheaded. Relationship is superficial. Meanwhile wife is hurt but ends up dating a hot new guy and he awakens something in her. The two ex’s bump into each other out somewhere, they are angry then reconnect, end up back together with a new sexual intimacy, etc. etc.

Typical Skinemax fare, but if anyone remembers the title, please let me know, thanks!

An Eastern European is making friends in the US (?), speaks in weird slang

Years ago me and my brother saw these on Israeli daytime TV, hence not sure whether it’s an actual film, a made-for-TV movie or series. In the scene, a blonde young man, speaking in what sounded like a pseudo-Russian/Polish gibberish is trying to make friends at a party in, presumably, America (we’re native Russian speakers so to us his lines seemed particularly ridiculous). For example, he compliments a girl with the following: “O, stroynaya babonya!” (Babunya being Polish for “grandma”, “bAba” – rude Russian for female, and “stroynaya” – slim/well-built).
Next, they start dancing, the character pulls the girl too close, she retracts and he expresses his anger by yelling: “KRAPKA POSHNYASTA!.. You’re not a real rock-n-roll girl!”

Now, krapka is Polish/Ukrainian for period/dot, poshnyasta sounds like an invented cursing adjective, and the rest of it – well, that’s what makes us wonder years later, what was the source of this craziness. Any leads appreciated.
