70s or 80s B street racing movie

Ok this one will be hard.  It has been elluding an answer for over 30 years.  Here are some main story plot points.

Young street racer seeks out legendary old retired street racer to race so he can say he beat the best.

The old racer may actually be a highway patrol officer.

Old racer refuses….young guy kidnapped his daughter to make him do it or he’ll kill her.

Fast forward to montage where old racer goes to the garage and uncovers a late 50s era street racing machine.

The Dad or his car is called the ghost or the spectre (this movie IS NOT  “The wraith” or “Vankshing Point”) or something along those lines.  Not real sure on this point after 30 years but it still feels right to say.

The Dad agrees and the race is set to take place on a long road or runway.

There is heavy equipment at the end of the “track”  Bulldozer, earth mover , front end loaders and the like.

The kid crashes into these at the end and explodes and the Dad gets the win save his daughter.

30 years folk’s…save me on this one please lol.

1990s (tv?) movie with woman being stalked/followed by zombie-looking dead mother

This is a movie which scared me a lot as a kid in the mid/late 1990s (it was in color and looked like a contemporary film back then, had a made-for-TV feel but I could be mistaken, I may have seen it only once). I only remember a sequence in which a woman (the female protagonist?) is being followed/stalked by her dead mother who has the appearance of a zombie and turns up in public places (a church, a hospital…).

Thanks in advance to anybody who can help me identify the name of this movie.

looking for the name of the movie

I don’t remember the title of the movie but I’ll try to describe it.

A group of friends arrives at a countryside house during a holiday. One of the girls begins to experience strange events—her car starts on its own, and objects move around. Her boyfriend tries to comfort her, but they end up performing some kind of ritual in the water.

It turns out that the girl and her sister, along with her sister’s boyfriend, had accidentally killed another girl with their car some time ago. The ghost of this girl starts haunting the sister, and she eventually dies. Afterward, the ghost begins haunting the main character, leading her to the dead girl’s body. In the end, her boyfriend confesses that he accidentally killed the girl.

Help me identify this old horror movie

I’m trying to remember the name of an old horror movie (90s or 80s but might be from the early 20s too) I watched as a kid. I don’t recall much, but there are two specific scenes that stood out to me:

1. A group of friends is camping in the middle of nowhere (they might get lost too but either way they spent the night outside) when they discover an old, abandoned cabine. Unknown to them, a killer is living there, and at one point, he spies on them through a hole in the floor and only his iris is visible for how tiny that hole is (he was hiding in the basement

2. In another scene, a couple went outside to lay on the grass. When the man leaves briefly, the killer appears and brutally twists the girl’s body. (They didn’t show when the killer came in and when the bf is back, he puts his hand on the girl’s hips and gets shocked to her back being in the front)

The movie revolves around a single killer who was born deformed and abandoned by his mother in the house where he now lives (not sure about this part but surely he’s deformed)

Spanish translation Zorro episode

I know this site is for finding out movie titles, but somehow, I need help finding out what a person is 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 at approx 21:04 of this movie clip on YouTube below.

Thank you in advance and good luck.

Zombie/dead girl found in a car

So the story starts out in the woods or a forrest at a creepy old house and a young boy or girl finds a dead girl in the trunk of a small older gen hatchback. You end up finding out that the girl from the back of the hatchback was murdered and is a zombie. She and her new acquaintance the boy or girl that meets her in the woods go around the woods trying to escape. That’s all I really can remember. It was a fairly recent movie, last 5 to 10 years I think. Thanks!

Risque movie – on a stake out looking from one skyscraper to another

Howdy,

I have been trying to find this movie for most of my life. I was born in 1975 I am guessing I was about 5 or 6 years old. I was at my Grandparents house and I snuck out of bed and watched the TV from around the corner. The scene was what I think were 2 police detectives set up in a skyscraper using telescopes or binoculars to surveil the apartment of the adjacent building. The apartment had large modern windows. The subject, a man, comes home in the evening and is greeted by his lady friend/wife and she is telling him about her day. While she is talking to him, he nonchalantly pulls down her pants and start messing with her pubic hair.  The cops start laughing and joking with each other. I think at this point my GP’s realized I was there and I got sent back to bed. I am sure this was not a prono but an actual movie of some sort. The production value was high because there were long distance shots through the windows with lots of scene cuts. It might have been on HBO or Skinemax. I doubt my GPs had a VCR yet. No genitalia was shown. The scene was from the side. Thanks in advance for your help. Its been a life long puzzler.

90s thriller about homicidal teen terrorizing his babysitter

I remember watching this movie (I dissect a direct to VHS movie) someone on the mid to late 90s. Movie was in color and in English.

This teenage boy is really disturbed and likes and to terrorize his babysitters. I think he had a younger sister as well who was frightened of him.

I don’t remember much from the plot other than he would pay loud music (I think “fFight of the Valkyries”) to scare his victims and he made a mask covered in spikes or knives.

At the end of the movie he is trying to pull the babysitter down the stairs to kill her but she manages to push him back and he lands on his on spiky mask killing him.

Investigation series by dreaming

I remember this English-speaking series about investigation about a girl who helps the police to investigate with her psychic ability. Each episode, she has to dream or something like tha. In her dream, she could see something that is related to the crime cases and with her information, the investigators are able to s0vlve the cases.

I am not sure about this but as I remember, she might not be in the force, and the way she gets involved with the policemen is her ability.

I watched this series around 2007-2010. Not really sure about the time though, but no sooner than 2012.

Spanish movie about love

I am looking for a Spanish long-lasting, troubled love story. Probably the film is from 1980s-1990s.

Let me summarize my clues:

1. Lovers who meet intermittently.
2. A train scene where they meet and spend the night in a compartment.
3. Set in post-WWII, continuing into Franco’s Spain.

4. The man is successful under Franco’s regime, and the woman is beautiful.

5. A scene where she makes a dress from a curtain.

a young woman communicates with her dead father through video recordings of himself he left her before he died

I believe the movie is from the 80s/90s. The movie revolves around a young, redhead lady whose father left her video recordings of himself, since he had known he is about to pass away. He apparently created kind of an AI software which recognizes spoken communications of his daughter. So, she communicates with her dead father by talking to a screen, and her father answers her from the screen with the right video recording of himself. The videos include personal messages as well as practical instructions for her day to day life. I remember specifically that the daughter is saying to the screen “I miss you”, and there comes a recording of her father comforting her.

I don’t remember anything else about the film unfortunately, other than some vague notion that the woman might have been in danger, maybe somebody wanted to kill her.

That’s all, thanks for your help in advance.

Comedy of absurd

Hi) Actually, i have been trying to find this movie for a long time. Its an Absurd Comedy. The plot is like this – two jerks want to become discoverers. They gather people and go on expedition. As far as i remember there were indians there and there even was a scene when they met the local tribe and mistooke the local retarded dude for their leader. There was also a scene of getting eagle eggs – when one of to m.heroes climbs a tree. Plus they had an indian girl in their group (she was freed from the slavery) and she had an affair with the second hero. When he is sick, he says in delirium:”Mother, i saw a nacked indian woman”: ))

Will be grateful for your help


2 girls fight over the affection of hot teacher

I’ve never actually seen this movie but I’ve seen clips on tik tok. From my understanding it seems to be 2 girls fighting for young male teachers attention, one edgier and one quiet and goody two shoes. The teacher is putting on the play the crucible and it seems maybe the quiet girl sort of takes on the roll of abigail williams, both in the play and in the narrative of the movie. The quiet girl maybe seems to be a little unhinged, maybe the protagonist? Would be a fairly recent movie, id guess 2012-present, though I mostly saw clipse of it on tik tok in 2020-2022.

“Who will be de one?”

TV show in the 80s (probably, maybe late 70s) in a sort of Fantasy Island style. Different people or couples who compete for or get a wish or prize or something. I think set in the tropics, and I think the title could’ve been “_ Paradise” where the blank was the location. What I specifically remember is that at the beginning of each episode a guy with a Jamaican accent sings “Who will be de one?” in the ascending 4th-8th notes of a major scale. Been not quite at the tip of my memory-tongue for days! Thank you, anyone of a certain age with a better memory.

A guy and a girl save the vineyard from frost

A young woman inherits a vineyard, but a company wants to bankrupt her. A young man comes to stay with her; he’s a bit strange (possibly autistic). There’s a scene where, the morning after his arrival, the woman enters the living room and finds that he has neatly arranged all the items in their places.

I also remember a scene where they save the vineyard from frost together by placing barrels in the field and lighting fires in them to prevent the grapes from freezing.

At the end of the plot, the guy hacks into a bank and transfers funds to save the vineyard from bankruptcy.

I watched the movie about 10 years ago; it might be French.
