Describe a movie you BARELY remember

[Ronny Rayguns Is All Elite]

Nowadays most people watch movies on Some type of streaming service so it's a lot less likely for you to just stumble onto a movie, but back in the 80s and 90s when you actually had to channel surf it was a lot more likely for you to come in on a movie at the middle or very end.


First movie, I only remember the very last scene of this movie. I think it was a cheesy 80s Sci Fi Movie. There was some Black guy who got shot by a lazer and then turned into a pile of green slime after giving a death Speech to a Blonde guy. I'm pretty sure his name was Bubba. Whatever the hell this movie was,seems to have been COMPLETELY forgotten but SOMEBODY else must have seen this mess.

I'm pretty sure you're thinking of From Beyond:

"Repossessed", a full-length parody movie of The Exorcist, starring Leslie Nielsen. And there was actually a scene in the movie with Mean Gene Okerlund and Jesse "The Body" Ventura doing commentary during one of the scenes.

That Disney movie, that starts oit animated, then goes live action. I think it's called Enchanted.


...I fell asleep in the theater, during it. It wasn't boring, I was just tired.

[No One]

I saw 'The Forest' at the theater and as soon as we left I couldn't remember anything about it.

I've always wondered what this movie was I saw late at night on a local syndicated movie block. I presume it was some kind of horror film and there were a lot of chickens being mutilated outside of a barn. Seemed like daylight. There was some kind of monster or madman killing them all and feathers were flying everywhere and the last shot of that scene was a dead chicken with grey liquid streaming out of its eyeball onto the ground. I saw this on TV around 1992-93 but it seemed like something from the early 80s-late 70s. Not too clear about the details since I was probably 10 when I saw this, but it's always stuck with me and I've never been able to figure out what it is.

[DiBiase is Good]

It was some 80s film and some rich, timid Sheik is visiting the USA. Somehow he ends up in the care of some New York/Jersey guy who is about as opposite from the Sheik as you can get. Their night gets pretty wild as they go round some town in a limo, picking up random ladies and getting them to strip in the back of the car in exchange for cash or jewellery.
The night ends and they part ways and the Sheik gives him a huge piece of jewellery in exchange for the greatest night of his life.

all i remember is jason priestly playing the main character who becomes a hitman
watched it and thoroughly enjoyed it

bloody tried to remember it for ages, and there's very few that i do!

[Starshine]

Ok, Kingdom of Heaven.

Something about Orlando Bloom hanging out with a king who wears a mask to hide his leprosy. Then when he's dead you see his decaying face for like a second, which I guess is cool. The movie's really long, I quickly get bored and stop paying attention pretty soon into it.

[Guacamole Anderson]

There was a movie in the late 70s called THE CAR. Only thing I remember is that it scared the crap out of me. (I was like 6 at the time.)

[carp (SPC, Itoh Respect Army)]

One of mine I already figured out, because "movie where hand grows out of a guy's back" is pretty damn distinctive.


But okay, what about this one? A young, black boxer gets into trouble with his contract from a rich, white promoter... it was an underground boxing ring, and I remember a big, big part of the movie was about fighting dirty in various ways.

I clearly remember only one thing: in the climactic fight between the young boxer and the old promoter guy (which took place in an office), the young guy would try to punch at the face, and the promoter kept lowering his head so the fist connected with the hard part of the forehead. I remember thinking that was really clever.

YESSSSS!

Also I'm kinda floored at one of my earliest movie memories involving the awesome Ken Foree of Devil's Rejects fame

This movie seemed to ALWAYS be on Showtime when I was a kid.

Funny as hell

[mcmahonfan85]

don't remember the name but it was about a kid who convinces his younger brother Sam (which he says is an acronym) he's a robot by making him bite on a gum wrapper and telling him the pain was because the foil messed with the electronics in his mouth or something

[chazraps]

This movie that aired on Comedy Central late night the night of the 1998 King of the Ring.

I remember a scene where there's a guy in his early 20s and his apartment is a mess, and his parents surprise him with a visit and his friend comes out of the other room in a suit and tells the parents they're on a hidden camera show to prank them into thinking this was how their son really lived. They fell for it and totally went along with it and left.

Elsewhere in the movie there's a scene where the guy in on a date and there's a scene in a car with an aspiring actress. She thinks he's a Hollywood producer and asks him to evaluate her breasts, doing stuff like saying "When I sit like this they don't seem very big, but when I sit like this they're enormous!"

I remember checking the preview channel to see what it was, but they had an incorrect listing of a bunch of half-hour comedy shows.

This it? (and I'm guessing based on reading a blurb I barely remember 25 years ago in Disney Adventures)

yes

Some anime movie with a woman robot assassin that's not Ghost in the Shell. She's naked in the first 5 mins for one shot before the title and I think near the end she finds out she's a robot because she finds clones of herself in a lab. That's all I remember from it.

[G✇JI☈A]

That Matt Damon with Emily Blunt film where is they stalked by men in hats. The marketing was like “it’s Inception meets Bourne”

Well any Matt Damon at some point was maketed as “meets Bourne”.... “it’s the Hurt Locker meets Bourne” ... “it’s Dr Doolittle meets Bourne”

I love "The Car", it's the one where Satan's car terrorizes a small town in Utah. The "werecar" in Futurama was designed like The Car as a tribute. James Brolin was the main hero.

Was that "Gladiator"?



---------------------

Now, on a personal note, there was an Italian (well, European but I think it was Italian) horror-ish movie I saw a few minutes at the end of and would like to find... it's about a woman who has a disfigured face, she has some chemical that makes her beautiful but turns her into a killer, and at the end she's hit by a car.
