Help me find the movie name

I watched this on my laptop many years ago (definitely before 2017). It’s an English film (could be US/UK/Australian). Had a small-town high school vibe. I remember the plot really clearly:

  • Begins with a girl, her boyfriend, and three friends driving in a roofless/convertible car, taking pictures and having fun.
  • Later, the girl and her best friend go to a bar/club-like place. It gets drugged , the main girl is sexually assaulted/raped.
  • The best friend spreads a rumor that the girl is a prostitute who sleeps with older men. The whole school believes it.
  • Her boyfriend breaks up with her and starts dating the ex-best friend. The guy is on the swim team.
  • also guy finds out the best friend has been cheating on him with his bestfriend
  • A recording happens in a locker/locker room where the truth comes out — someone secretly records the friend exposing the lie or admitting it.
  • At a bonfire near the end, the recording is revealed publicly, everyone hears it, and her name is cleared.
  • The attackers/people responsible are caught at the end.
  • Main girl had darker hair, the ex-best friend was blonde.

This movie stuck with me, but I can’t remember the title no matter what I search.

It is NOT “Speak.”

If anyone recognizes it, please tell me — I’ve been searching for years.

Movie with a monkey

I saw this move in school in the mid to late 1980s, so it had to have been done before then. This guy takees a job where he is supposed to take care of monkeys. Another employer is coldly showing him the job of feeding and cleaning. But some of them are large and aggressive. So another worker says how the larger monekys (or mayber they were baboons) are 7 times as strong as humans. So, the worker tends to a smaller monkey and really bonds with it and becomes attached to it. Does anyone remember this?

Set in eastern Europe or Russia

I saw the movie in the 1980s. A guy leaves this home to go get supplies for his family. They are not poor and live in a big city. It is very cold so he puts on a jacket. He walks over to a long line and at the end of the line he recognizes people he knows while talking to them. Another guy tells them hey the line keeps going and he looks and it wraps around the block. He comes home later with this big cold on his wife, kids and grandparents. Just looking at them. Looks like he has nothing. Danny pulls out a bunch of toilet paper rolls and everyone starts rejoicing.

Man in pickup finds glowing limbless humanoid that smiles — mid-90s TV or movie

I saw this around 1994–95, maybe earlier. It’s night, a man alone in his truck, something crashes in front of him. He gets out, pulls a glowing half-humanoid from the ground (no arms or legs, has eyes and mouth). The thing smiles at him.

Next he’s back in the truck, brushing it against himself like he’s keeping it. Not horror — just strange and sci-fi. Could’ve been part of an anthology show like Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Amazing Stories, or a one-off TV movie. Any help appreciated!

Anyone remember this SCi-Fi movie?

I saw this movie on TV in March of 1988. I have no idea if it was a TV movie or a B movie release. It was basically an alien invasion movie. These 2 guys and a woman are driving around this town as aliens are slowly taking over. In once scene they try going to “Burger World” drive thru, but as they order 3 burgers, 3 fries, and 3 soda shakes,  the worker is being dragged away by an alien. Does this sound familar?

2000’s Horror movie

I barely remember anything about this movie as I fell asleep during it and I watched it a year ago so im sorry in advance lol.

The movie is basically a group of friends getting kidnapped by a killer. I think I remember them driving or heading somewhere for summer vacation before they are kidnapped by the killer and tortured in his basement. The movie ends with one of the girls in the group shooting the killer with a shotgun.

The killer is not masked. The cast is all white (possibly) and no prominent actors iirc. The movie doesn’t involve a cabin or hitchhikers. Also this may or may not be a found footage movie.

1970s US horror false scare

So there’s this scene I think at the beginning of the horror film of this teenager/ young woman, long dark hair and she’s cleaning. Quite distinctively, she is wearing a single earpiece to listen to music, appropriate for the gadget at the time ie just before the walkman came out (with earphones for both ears). She gets caught up in the music so much she dances with her eyes closed, shaking her hair and spinning around. The false scare is the camera angles suggesting that a killer or stalker is watching her and keeps getting closer…she jumps for half a second but immediately recognises them and it’s her boyfriend. I seem to remember that it’s set in the summer or at least it looks pretty green and it’s very sunny and I think she’s cleaning a house a school or something commercial, certainly on the ground floor. I think the stalker element is key to the movie

Need help finding this horror movie scene

My girlfriend was talking about a movie we watched and we both can’t remember exactly what it is. From what she remembers she says there is a couple with marriage or relationship issues and they live in an oak house in the woods. I don’t know how correct all of that is. The one thing I actually remember is that the parents left an infant in a car and the baby was killed by whatever supernatural creature it was. I feel like the car was in the woods maybe parked in front of a house.

Can’t remember this older movie, only remember one scene. Please help!

I saw this movie (could have been a film, short, or episode, but believe it was a film) sometime in the 2010s. It could have been made before the 2010s. I remember one scene where men were in what looked like a gymnasium and had kids sitting on bleachers with their parents. I don’t remember if they did this for everyone (I believe they did) but I remember them making one woman choose which of her children would survive and leave with her. It was darker and possibly a bit grainy and gray toned. I know it isn’t much but I’ve been looking for literal years! It could have been an indie/underground film. *No it is not Sophie’s choice*! I watched the sophies choice scene and I’ve never seen that film. I never watched nazi/war films growing up.

Old Dress locked in a cabinet

When i was a child in the 1970s i remember watching an old black and white film which im sure was British .It was about a young woman who becomes obsessed with an old Victorian (Edwardian)dress that is locked up in a glass display cabinet possibly in a museum or big house. The dress had belonged to her mother or grandmother so she feels the dress should belong to her. The young woman descends into madness and in the build up to the end of the film smashes the glass on the cabinet to take the dress. She is quickly took away and the film ends with one of her older relatives showing why she could never wear the dress and they show that the material of the old dress has become so old that its fraying even crumbling with age

25 year mystery

Hey everyone, trying to find a movie or show that I used to watch on TV. It was probably around 96-99. The only thing that really sticks is a sex scene where the teen boy cannot open the condom, and all you hear is him rattling the wrappers over and over while the girl is waiting in the bed.

The girl is nerdy, with round glasses. The guy was an unlikely match. He was awkward and weird. The girl’s mom was a single mom and I think they got in a fight and the girl ran away with the boy to this place where they try to have sex.

I think it’s set in a big city like New York. I want to say the girl also had a sister.

I remember watching it several times and I forgot everything except that awkward sex scene 😂

I’ve asked every movie buff since I was in my 20s, and Chat GPT failed me. Thanks so much to everyone who tries!
