3. Well the idea was the guy was selling the gun to the gangsta and he was used to holding it a certain way, and he takes it away from him and shows him how to hold it right, scolding him because the recoil will injure him in the process. I don't remember the exact scene, but it kind of goes like this:

"Alright, here you go. Try this out. *gangsta holds it sideways* GIVE ME THAT! You loving idiot. Hold it like this. You hold it like that you'll break your loving wrist!"

Or something to that effect.

My once a year or so quest for this one:



Brian Dennehy, or someone like that is a small-town cop. He pulls over this couple in an older car. The man says he did the maintenance on the car himself. The cop makes the couple get out, and makes the boy find grease from under the car (the line I remember is "I thought you kept this car cherry, boy"). The cop then rapes the girl, using the grease the guy got from under the car, and tells the guy if he turns around and the gun is pointed at him, he (the cop) will kill them both. If it's not, he'll let them go. He puts the gun on the hood or roof or the car, but the guy never turns around.
Later, the couple confronts this cop at a diner or something.

Jesus, I saw that once many years ago, like in 1990 or so, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't Brian Dennehy, but aside from that and what you describe I have no help to offer.

This one is really vague. I remember reading a review for a horror or thriller that premiered at a festival. This would have been around 2004-2008. I meant to keep track of its release but totally forgot about it.

What I can remember of the plot was a mother and her three sons who go to a house and keep a woman--or a woman and her children--hostage. One of the kidnapper sons was a known teen actor around that time(someone like Kyle Gallner) I think.

Super vague, but that's all I can remember and I figured I'd ask before it slips my mind again.

One I saw decades ago. It's a period piece, think 'The Duellists' kind of look.

There's a guy in a stagecoach playing Russian roulette and a scene where a guy is thrown headfirst into a tube that may be a well or an oubliette type thing with a rope around his feet.

Sorry to be so vague but it's been a very long time!

Period horror piece The Skull has a sequence where a man is forced into a carriage, taken out, and then forced to play Russian roulette.

Co-worker just started telling me about this movie he couldn't remmeber. First 5-10 minutes had nothing to do with the rest of the film. Office setting, elderly workers start taking over and it becomes like a pirate ship.

Sounds weird and awesome and I have to know.

EDIT: Nevermind! Monty Python and the Meaning of Life. I knew it sounded familiar, but I always come in at the middle of that movie (machine that goes 'beep', sex-ed class, irishman who has 26 kids, etc)

This is a long-shot, but I'm basically looking for a movie about a group of maybe 6 or so friends having dinner at a restaurant and just talking. Yupp, that about sums up the plot. I'm guessing it was released sometime between 2000-2008.

I assume since you didn't mention cooking it's not Big Night? Although looking that's 1996.

Good afternoon, obviously I'm at a loss trying to remember a movie and I'm at a loss after using IMDB and such.

I think I saw it streamed on BG or some such this past winter. It was set in Europe though I'm not sure if it was a foreign film. I think maybe it was set in Sweden or Norway. There were mountains, woods, and campsites and a ferry.

Anyways, a group of students or maybe they were young journalists are investigating something along the lines of a yeti or some such beast. There's a Jon Voight-looking guy that's not a part of the group and is either feeding or hunting the beasts. He's got a Land Rover of sorts with massive lights and an RV I think.

I don't think it was a FF film but I'm sure the students had video cameras.

Devil's Pass was as close as I came in using the Google but that wasn't it.

Cheers

Comedy from the 90s. Alien comes to Earth, he looks weird but he takes a pill to look like a human. Climax of the film has an army guy that was chasing them take a different pill and then turn into another alien, where the rest of the military thinks he's the original alien and goes off to dissect him.

On old movie from the late 70s or early 80s. It has three old men who rob a bank, I remember a specific scene where they are sitting around a table with the guns they are going to use and a big pile of bullets, trying to figure out which bullets go with which guns. After the robbery, one of the old men dies and the remaining one is very sad an lonely.

Sorry for being so vague.

A movie where there was some kind of club or business that revolved around making clients fantasies come true. It had a seedy strip club vibe, and I specifically remember one fantasy included men wanting to experience sex as a woman. I think there were robots involved in making the fantasies a reality. Based on the robots I suppose it might have been a sci-fi film? No idea if this was just one scene or integral to the plot. Probably late 1990s or early 2000s. I believe I saw it on some kind of rental, possibly VHS. No idea if it was a theatrical release or direct-to-video. I may or may not be misremembering details.

This is such a bizarre memory in my head, I'd love to solve this mystery!
