Quiz: Name that movie

[mainer]

Innerspace, 1987.

 

[FreezerBurn]

Yup! Your turn.

 

[mainer]

This movie is a bit on the strange side:

 

[FreezerBurn]

Doctor Sleep?

 

[mainer]

It's not Doctor Sleep, but both movies would probably be considered to be in that "supernatural horror" genre. When I first saw the scene from which the image was taken, I immediately had flashbacks to the Overlook Hotel, albeit a bit more grungy looking.

 

[Brian Boru]

The Wallpaper From Hell?

The Wallpaper From Hell?

It reminded me of an old apartment that I moved into years & years ago, that had kind of weird, slightly warped walls and 1920ish, garish maroon wallpaper, accented by door frames and molding that had thick glossy paint that looked like it had been applied at least 12 times. It took weeks redecorating that one.

Here's another one that might give a bit more context:

Here's a new shot for the weekend:

@mainer I knew what this movie was by the first screenshot (I think), it's 'The Lords of Salam' right?

 

[IndecentLouie]

@Frindis I know i'm replying to a comment from last month but 'Pig' is a fantastic nic cage movie, I really enjoyed it.

 

[Frindis]

@IndecentLouie Happy to hear that Definitely a watch. I watched 8MM again yesterday and Cage really plays well in those more serious roles. He is definitely more than just screams and yells under that snakeskin jacket of his.

 

[Pifanjr]

I rewatched National Treasure recently and I think Nicolas Cage does a great job in that movie.

 

[mainer]

@mainer I knew what this movie was by the first screenshot (I think), it's 'The Lords of Salam' right?

You are absolutely correct, it is The Lords of Salem, a movie by Rob Zombie and staring his wife Sheri Moon Zombie. It was a really a bit bizarre but I really liked the cinematography. Your turn now.

 

[IndecentLouie]

I thought it was slightly boring as a whole but you're 100% right about the cinematography!
I hope this movie isn't too obscure, i'll give the clue: It isn't an english spoken film

Der Kopf auf der Platte?

 

[IndecentLouie]

Haha I suppose one would know exactly what the film would be about with that name

 

[Kaamos_Llama]

Is it Delicatessin?

 

[IndecentLouie]

It is!

[Kaamos_Llama]

I really liked City of Lost Children and Amelie too, its been a long time since I saw them. Just discovered that Jean Pierre Jeunet directed Alien Resurrection as well. Weird!

At this point I have no idea what been posted in all of the previous 60 pages, so sorry if this is a repeat. Its a good one though.

 

[IndecentLouie]

I haven't watched City of lost children yet (i'll make sure I do this weekend) but really enjoyed Amelie, Alien Resurrection get's a lot of bad press but I kinda liked it.
It was weird and kinda gross but in a good way, that scene with all the ripley clones was great.

And I think you made that one a bit too easy because it looks like 'The Game' to me

 

[Kaamos_Llama]

City of Lost Children was my favourite of theirs, but I haven't seen those movies in 15 years probably. DVD's are still somewhere. On that note I haven't seen Alien Resurrection since probably 1998.

Having streaming services as only source of movies sucks in a lot of ways. Dont get to see anything much different anymore.

Anyway, yea its The Game! Back to you.

 

[IndecentLouie]

Plus the amount of streaming services make it annoying since the cost of all can really add up.
I recently used the free trial of Prime because I wanted to watch Lexx and the last time I used the trial they had Lexx free on prime, seemed they suddently changed them to 99p per episode in my time away. Proper annoying.

Oddly enough this next film has a connection to Alien Resurrection. I'm sure someone will guess it quite easily.

That's David Lynch's Dune. My wife and I are hoping to see the new one next Wednesday, if we can find a babysitter for our daughter and dog.

And I think you made that one a bit too easy because it looks like 'The Game' to me

I've seen The Game, but I don't recognize this scene.

 

[IndecentLouie]

I believe the Scene from 'The Game' is right at the end, when he falls through the glass roof and learns why everything was happening.

And it is Dune! i'll probably be waiting for the new one to come out on VOD, it's looking great so far.
