Egghead scientist consumes lighting to save friends

I watched this episode/movie in the 90s. It wasn’t a cartoon. The color scheme was dark, as in “Are you afraid of the dark?”. There was a bald scientist (not a protagonist) with an abnormal head (either egg-shaped, or simply oversized), who was able to save his friends (the protagonist group) by consuming a lightning with his head.

Thanks and respect to you all!

a series with a gay couple. I saw a cut scene from the series about 3 years ago on TikTok.

I saw a cut scene from the series about 3 years ago on TikTok. In it, men (possibly belonging to different clans or species) decided to kiss in public and reveal their relationship.

This scene closely resembles Magnus and Alec’s first kiss from the Shadowhunters, but it wasn’t them. They’ve got blue lights, and the show I’m looking for more brown and dark might be.  The series is probably American, but I don’t know for sure. The men were pretty enough. For some reason, I think one of them was a vampire and the other was either a werewolf or a hunter, but that might be my fantasy. This series definitely ran from 2000 to 2021.

I’d be very happy if someone found him or someone like him

A live-action movie about a bunch of talking dogs going on a walking day trip out in nature as they babysit a golden retriever puppy…

…(their friend, the puppy’s dad, had to go on a mission or something so he entrusted his kid to their care)

I watched this movie when I was a kid and now I can’t remember the name of the movie. I tried searching it up on Google but to no avail. Definitely not one of the Super/Air Buddies movies, as the dogs were all different breeds

Random details that I remember that may help you:

  • there was a female border collie named Sister who I think was the figurative mother of the group

  • the intro consisted of a mouse/rat sitting on the rump of a brown horse/pony; I believe the mouse/rat was narrating? then it cut to all the dog friends sitting in the corner of a barn, in the hay. the friend who had to go on a mission was like “ok guys good news or bad news” and I’m pretty sure it was during the “bad news” part that he revealed that he had to go on his mission

  • the dog friends weren’t too happy with the babysitting part at first but by the end of the day they were in love with the puppy. their friend had returned from their mission too at that point.

  • when they were all preparing to leave there was this poodle or something that was really obsessed with pink and brought a whole bunch of pink things they’d need for the day

spoof parody comedy with characters that look like power rangers

I must’ve come across this within the last 10 years or so. I had a dream about it last night, and for the life of me I can’t remember what the show/movie/film/video was. I remembered so vividly in my dream, but it faded when I woke up…

I searched the web every way I could, but the search queries always took the main words I used and just ran in a different direction.

I don’t remember any specific actors, but for some odd reason I recall the internet personality TotalBiscuit talking about it. Either in a podcast with Jesse Cox or Dodger/DexBonus, or in one of his videos.

One one thing I remember (and I could be wrong about this) but it was a spoof/parody comedy with power rangers looking characters and there were 2 black rangers. It could’ve only been a segment in the film, or the film could’ve entirely been about these characters. I can really only remember this segment in my dream, as it was right when I woke up. There was definitely more to my dream though. So in this segment, there was a commercial that played the ninja turtle theme song but with different words. Imagine the tune of the old school “Teen-Age Mu-tant Nin-Ja Tur-Tles, Teen-Age Mu-Tant Nin-Ja Turtles, Turtles in a half-shell!” but for fake power rangers. At the end of the song they ended with “F*** the police!” and poses. For some reason it feel like it was playing on a tv being displayed behind the glass of a store front, and then after the commercial ended it went onto another scene of the film. Could be wrong.

I’m not sure if the commercial was just a short part of the film, or if throughout the film there were a bunch of commercials. I think the whole movie was just a big compilation of spoofs and comedic references.

It was in English, and in color. I think it was live action but not 100% sure. It was probably something I saw on the internet, not on TV.

My dream was so vivid, and it felt like something I was remembering, not something I was imagining right there at that moment. I was trying so hard to remember other scenes so I could try to jumpstart my memory and recall some name or even what the characters looked like. But I couldn’t get anything going, and figured my best bet would be to post on a forum somewhere so I could at least have a chance at having what I document relate to someone else.

If anyone would recall something like this, then at least I know it exists and I won’t forget it.

Erotic Film?

Erotic or porn film. Colored, was on VHS tapes. A man comes to a female psychologist and talks about his intimate adventures. The first time was when, when he was still a teenager, his housekeeper caught him with a porn magazine. Then there were 2 more episodes with erotic scenes. In the end, the psychologist could not stand it and had sex with the man right on the floor of the office.

Early 2020’s CGI animated fantasy movie

I can’t remember much, but all I know is that it was a CGI animated/live-action fantasy movie in color taking place somewhere in Europe during ancient times. The movie was in an incomprehensible European language. Probably Russian, I think.

In one scene, it had a small talking horse with long ears like a donkey and it could talk. It was seen talking to some guy and it could run really, really fast like magic.

Please, I implore and beg of you. Not only do I want to know the name of the movie, but also I want to know WHERE I can find and watch it in ENGLISH ONLINE somewhere ASAP for free WITHOUT registration, buffering issues, or even country availability issues either. It would mean a lot to me.

Remember, name and movie site location link altogether if and when possible, please.

Thank you and good luck.

Semi intense interrogation scene of a crime scene that could be a movie or show( ik this is a movie website but if you think of a show…

…with this description still determine).

  • I believe it’s like a gangster crime thriller, but the woman is being interrogated for something and to get her to talk I think they bring either electrodes and/or car battery and I can’t remember if they attach to her feet to shock or if her feet are in water and they’re using that to shock her (still can’t recall if it’s a movie or a show but the whole thing is on the tip of my tongue (haha) .

Tentacle monster/demon movie

– I watched it between 1987-89 so I assume its from the 80es.

– It was in color and I think english is the original language.

– The creature is probably more kind of a demon and not a classic monster.

– I remember a scene where a dark haired young woman gets
attacked or possessed by it, (it could be in a bathroom).

– I think the tentacle is used to possess ppl and (sexually stimulate woman?)

– Cause I remember it had a bit of a sexual tone but more like a softcore and not hentai, also it was kinda comedic I think

Sorry, I know its all super vague..

Movie about a girl growing up, a grasshopper and music stars

Hi everyone!

So, I didn’t watch that movie myself. I only heard my aunt telling my mother about it long ago, in the year between 2002 and 2008. Now auntie doesn’t remember it 🙂 . So, the movie’s about a girl growing up, she lost her parents or maybe one of them, afterwards she sat and caught a grasshopper, then let it go, then caught it again, several times, symbolizing her confusion and lostness. Time passes, and as a teenager or a young woman, she goes to a rock concert, gets noticed by a rockstar and spends a night with him. Later, perhaps, she becomes a singer herself, but I’m not sure I remember that right. Appreciate if anyone tells me the title!

 

Help remember thriller movie please!

Short film I saw on Netflix circa 2010

Please help – I saw a film circa 2010 on Netflix and cannot for the life of me remember the name.

It was a short horror (or horror adjacent) film (~25-40 min) and centered on a woman who was staying alone in a house (I think after her husband had gone on a trip). She would have a rendezvous with a subservient man in the woods behind a tree and I can’t remember any details beyond that except that I think she died in the end. Anyone have any thoughts – many thanks!

Film out in last few years, horror

Hi there!

I recently planned to watch a film (I believe it was available on Prime Video), out in the last few years about a woman whose soldier husband was killed in action, however she wants him back – I may have dreamt this next bit but she may have moved to a new home? Either way she uses some type of spell or even black magic etc to get him back to life. Colour, pretty sure it’s in English language as well and most definitely in the horror genre. Sorry of that isn’t a lot to go on but I’d be eternally grateful if it rings a bell 🙂

Movie about a single mom and her troubled son

I recall a movie I saw on TV around 1970’s. It was about a single mom who lived with her son and he was very jealous when his mother dated. He was about 13 and got into trouble with older teenagers. He tried to kiss an older guys girlfriend and the boyfriend chases him. A biker saved him from the guy and they became friends. He put together a plot with his biker friend to get his mom’s boyfriend in the apartment but to kill him by starting a fire.  I think when the biker found out what this kid was planning, he called the police because he didn’t wanna be part of a murder or he wanted to prevent it.  The movie ended where unfortunately it was his mother that was stuck in the apartment and she ended up getting killed by the fire. The boy was put into some sort of rehabilitation place and the mother’s boyfriend went to go visit him. Does anybody remember the movie?

Commercial

Hi, I know this is solely for movies. I vividly remember a commercial from either the 1960’s or 1970’s, a man was med by prison guards to a door. One guard opened the door but there were no steps or a staircase. They threw the prisoner out and closed the door as he stood on the ledge. The prisoner put his hands up to his nose so as not to smell the pollution. I can’t find this on any Google search. Thanks!

Contemporary film with a plot similar to Jane Eyre

A friend of mine is trying to find a movie they saw approximately 10 years ago.

The following is all the information they remember:

Film is in English, color, thriller, likely from the late 90s/early 2000’s

She watched it on TV, not in the theater, but isn’t sure if it was made for TV.

The film is about a nanny who takes on the child of a widower.

Throughout the film, the nanny sees a ghost woman (or what she thinks is a ghost woman) in the house, but in the end it’s revealed that the wife/mother is still alive and the husband has been keeping her trapped.

I told her it sounds like Jane Eyre, but she said it’s definitely not a period piece. I did some googling to try to find modern adaptations of Jane Eyre, and have come up empty handed. Hopefully someone here will be able to help. I think I might be more curious than she is at this point, lol
