I think you got it right.

Twilight zone was what I suspected but I was just vaguely aware of the show at the time.

I really need to download that show and watch it again. At the time I didn't understand English and my mother had to explain the lines to me. I got most of the plot mainly through the actions.

Bert Lahr played the Lion, Ed Wynn was in the Twilight Zone. Wynn wasn't in The Wizard of Oz, but supposedly he was offered the role of the Wizard. He's probably best known for playing Uncle Albert in Mary Poppins, and for having voice actors impersonate him for various cartoon characters.

Looking for a porno movie from the late 80s. The plot has the lead actress (tall brunette) playing a prudish woman looking for a roommate. She gets a slutty blonde to move in and is appalled by her sluttiness. The new roommate tries to get the woman to loosen up by posing for nude pictures (the "photographer" is using a Polaroid instant camera that quickly runs out of film, but nobody notices). Ultimately, the woman does loosen up considerably and the two women become lovers.

These are small snippets of things so I have no idea when they were made or anything like that. Sorry for the vagueness.

1) A guy in a bondage fetish suit is running away from something. He's in a suburban neighborhood in the daytime. He stops next to a garbage truck because he's out of breath, and thanks God for helping him escape. A blue, metal, garbage bin falls on him and kills him. I saw this played before a movie at an Alamo Drafthouse location.

2) A man dressed up to look like a plastic or wooden toy is yelling at a woman about how he can love her like a real son, and tries to tackle her. She stabs him in the shoulder ball joint with a screwdriver. Meanwhile a dude who I think is young Dan Akroyd is wearing make-up to make him look old and fat (so he looks like modern Dan Akroyd) and looks on from an office desk. This might be two different movies spliced together as the Dan Akroyd look alike was not shown at the same time as the woman and the toy person. I saw this in a compilation of weird videos.

e: The Dan Akroyd part is "Nothing But Trouble"

Here's a movie I've been trying to remember: It's a heist movie/comedy(?) sort of thing, where the main character is kind of an rear end in a top hat belligerent, and tries to go and rob a bank with his girlfriend. I remember one scene in the middle of a parking lot of a strip club for some reason, and I remember that right at the end of the movie the main character's wife/girlfriend kills him, takes the money they stole, and drives off with this other woman who was in the film. I think there was a weird non-linear timeline thing going in it too, but that could just be my memory playing with me.

It's been years since I last saw it on DVD, and I don't think I ever learned the name of it.

I swear it's unlikely that two people would be looking for the same movie in the same week but this really sounds like One Night at McCools again with a couple minor diffs.

I saw this movie more than a decade and a half ago, and it was on TV so it must have been even older. Made in the 80's, maybe 70's?. It was set in Florida during the Cuban missile crisis, primarily revolving around a young teen boy. He worked at or just hung around a movie theater a lot. The climax of the movie involved using the theater's advanced tech and sound system to fake a bomb exploding, making it look like the screen and the wall behind it crumbled away to reveal an explosion even though it was just being projected. Also maybe the seats were electrified to spook people? That might be from a different movie though.

There was also a dream sequence where the boy followed his younger brother outside their home at night just as a nuclear bomb detonated in the city.

Thanks in advance.

What's the movie (there was a thread about it in this forum) about a wealthy, famous African American family where since he was twelve years old, the son had been molesting the dad?

Okay, this is pretty bare-bones, but I dragged every scrap of information I could out of my friend:

- She says she saw a trailer for the movie in question on a rented videotape. She doesn't remember the name of the movie she rented.

- This would have been no later than 2000.

- The trailer featured really shoddy, low-budget computer graphics, and involved fruit with faces, arms, and legs. She can't remember if the fruit could talk or not, but she does remember them all running in a big group. There was definitely an apple and a banana, and she thinks there were other fruits you'd see in a stereotypical assortment of fruit (a bunch of grapes, an orange, etc) but can't be 100% certain on that.

- It definitely wasn't misremembered claymation (we looked into Meet the Raisins) or any of the VeggieTales videos ("the graphics were way worse than those").

I am trying to find a cheesy 60s movie I saw on TV once. Here are the things I remember

- Stereotypical 60s family on vacation (?) at a resort/hotel
- The daughter and the sun sneak out at "night" (day as night filming)
- They end up with the "bad guys" at a bar, drink some beer, etc.
- There is rock and roll/rockabilly music
- The parents catch the kids out and there is drama.

That's all I can remember. Thanks in advance.

Paraphrasing moments of genius
Trying to remember some anime movie I saw many years ago (between 15 - 20 years). It was something I saw on late night cable, but it was an english dub so it couldn't have been some really obscure anime. I hope.

Anyway, I don't really remember the overall plot, just general details. I remember the movie was overall very dreamlike. Stuff would happen that just blatantly didn't make sense, no continuity. I wanna say that it was explicitly about dreams but I could be wrong. In any case, the movie was very surreal and deliberately absurd.

Random details:
  • Part of the movie takes place in a big house, almost like a haunted house
  • There's a scene where a character is in an elevator or a hallway with mirros on either side, giving that infinite hall of mirrors affect. They see someone (a ghost maybe?) stepping through the mirrors coming towards them.
  • There's a scene where the main male character "wakes up" in a cryogenic tube. He's in some kind of advanced looking technological chamber, and a robotic voice comes over an intercom telling him that he's been in suspension and that all his experiences thus far have been a dream. The voice then tells him that, unfortunately, the female character (possible love interest?) who was with him was also in suspension but that her cryo tube failed thousands of years ago. In a panic he opens up her chamber only to find a dusty skeleton. He starts freaking out but then - Surprise! - he accidentally flails against one of the "walls" and knocks it over, revealing that the chamber he was in was all fake. The movie then kinda continues from where it left off before.
  • There's another scene towards the end of the movie, I think it's basically the climax, where the "world" is ending, somehow. Like, reality itself it breaking down or something. The land around the house they were in is like falling down into a spacey void. The characters all jump onto this harrier jet and fly away to escape the destruction. It's a comical sight, there's like ten people all piled up around and on top of the harrier's cockpit. As they're flying the jet away, I think I remember them seeing a giant turtle or something. Like a giant cosmic turtle that had the whole world on it's back, but now the world is collapsing and the turtle is just floating through space.

Like I said, I saw the movie on TV. It was on very late at night (like, middle of the night). Can't remember what channel it was on. It was on a cable channel but not, like, one devoted to anime. Timeframe I'm a little hazy on. Before 2000 definitely.

EDIT - After a lot of googling random phrases and details, I think I found it: Urusei Yatsura 2: Beautiful Dreamer. Reading the plot synopsis on IMDB also confirms some of my recollections. Apparently the film was originally from the 80s but only dubbed in the late nineties. Here's the Harrier scene I remember:
