Need help with a movie

I saw a movie on television back in the 80's but I cannot remember the title.

All I remember about the movie is that there were two killers, a male and a female. I remember that the woman was the one killing the boys while the man was killing the girls.

I also remember two kids being murdered in a parade float during the movie.

Any one know the title?

I have so many movies from my childhood where I can only remember random scenes. Here are a few:

1) There's a little girl alone in a dark house. She's holding a teddy bear. She twists the bear's plastic eye off and it starts to bleed.

2) A woman walks into her home and sees her cat eating something on the kitchen table. She takes a closer look and finds out it's a human finger.

3) A woman wakes up in bed next to a dead guy with a (rusty?) sword sticking out of his stomach. She freaks out and is later seen scrubbing the blood off everything in the room.

4) There's a young boy in a hospital with progeria or some other aging disease. I think he befriends a woman doctor. There is one scene where she goes into a house and finds a dead woman inside a refrigerator. In another scene, she is in the hospital room with the cadavers and has to hide in the tank with one of them. When she gets out, she has to wash off all the preserving liquid.

I know these are really vague but I would be so grateful if anyone could help!! Thanks so much!

What was the name of the movie where a human and an alien are at war, but are stuck on a planet and learn to work together?

Also, what was the name of that movie where the championship boxer gets sent to prison, and fights in the prison boxing elite? I think his opponent was Wes Snipes, but I'm not sure.

I think that's Enemy Mine with Dennis Quaid and Lou Gossett Jr., 1985

Strays maybe?

Help. What is the name of this movie

Hi. Not sure if I am doing this correctly but I have tried other forums to no avail. I am looking for a movie about a little girl who lives with an old woman, which I'm guessing is her grandmother. The are very poor and dirty and live out in the boondocks. Some woman from town and her boyfriend, who I think is a cop or something, try to help the little girl. They buy her new clothes, and take her to a carnival where she throws up after riding the ferris wheel. She lives with the woman, and makes some friends. At some point, the little girl and the neighborhood kids kill a bird by stomping on it unil it's dead. I just remember these random pieces of the movie. I am 35, and I was about 7 or 8 when I watched it. I believe it was set in the 1960's or maybe the early 1970's. It's not the movie Zelly and me. That movie was made in the late 1980's. If anyone could be of help I would appreciate it. Thanx!!!!

Song in Mean Girls and Waiting

Anyone know the name of the song when she first walks into the Halloween Party (the song's also in the movie "waiting"😉. Lyrics are something like "blank blank so strange..."

Hi,
Theres this movie, and it might be a classic, set i think in Europe during the second world war.
The only thing I remember for sure is the ending. I think the whole plot was about getting the lead actress safely across the boarder to the neighboring country, but the boarder guard and government won't let her. So the movie ends with the main actor carrying her and making a mad dash across the boarder ( i think the ran about 50 feet), while being shot in the back multiple times by guards in the tower. However, as he makes it across, the guards from the country they are fleeing to starts shooting the enemy. The main actor dies at the end.

It's not a recent movie, but i would love to know the name of it since it's been bothering me since my childhood.

Sounds like its the Harrison Ford film Hanover Street.

futuristic cartoon movie name??

I am attempting to figure out the name of a movie. It came out a number of years ago (maybe between 1998 and 2002?). It is animated (pretty sure its not Disney), futuristic and set mostly on a spaceship. The main thing I remember is they show the main male character's bare bottom, which was a big deal since I guess it was the first time an animated movie did that. Anyone know what this is??

really old cartoon movie

There was this old cartoon movie (the 80s probably) with "Albatross" in the title I think? Regardless, it was about a princess and prince and I think the prince gets turned into an Albatross (a sea bird) so that he and his princess can't be together. Anyone??

ah!

ok, this is so random. I don't know if anyone will know this. But along time ago...when I was like 8...so I guess 1995, I was watching a movie that I really want to know what it was! All I remember was this one scene where a little girl was looking up ( at night) to her house window and she sees her dad with a woman ( not her mom) and the woman is topless! It was placed on an island and there was some type of animal that was all over the island...I don't know if that makes any sense...but it has been bugging me for along time! thanks

What's that movie?

Alright...I would like to know a movie....Not sure what it's called.
It's about a person who at the beginning of the movie has a choice to do something. I seem to remember her helping someone...picking up a purse or something? Anyway...the movie continues from two points of view. One point of view on if she would have helped that person. and the other point of view on what would have happened if she didn't help that person. It's a movie on how what choices you make in your every day life affects your life long term. Thanks!

HELP NEEDED: IN SEARCH FOR a sci-fi serie/movie

A little time ago, i watched a trailer that shows people that watch tv, kills each other when they see someting on it or hear some sound.
A girl is not affected by it and go on serch for other people.
I really need it's title, i only remember, that the movie was shot by 3 different producers and they want to release it in 3 times.

Thx in advance,

D

This one has been bugging me for years. i saw a bit of it ages back and i can't remember anything except there was a heap of people in a movie theatre and the things on screen started actually happening.

Tt one point -the vision most vivid in my mind- is the blob starts creeping through the screen and ends up spilling out the door. (pretty sure) and i think there is something to do with the rubbish bins attacking people (though i'm not sure again)

it's not the blob becasue other things from other b-grade moves start happening too.

i have the belief it has something to do with aliens and there are people trying to stop them, but... you know, this was a long time ago and i can't remember. perhaps the people were being brainwashed??

my apologies for being vague, but that's just the annoying part! it's only vague in my mind and it's been bugging me for ages. i would very much like to see it again and put my frustrated mind at ease.

please and thankyou to anyone who can help!!

Sliding Doors plot summary

A little girl with a doll gets in her way making her a few seconds late and the doors close on her, time rewinds and we see what would have happened if the little girl is pulled away from Helen's path and she catches the train.
