old movie

I'm trying to find the name of a movie I saw when I was really young, probably in the late 70s or early 80s. The only scene I remember is about a mother being in a hospital, I think, and finding out that her child was going to die. She was looking out the window and her husband and other child were throwing snowballs and they threw one at the window. I remember it being very sad. I know that's not much to go on, but any help would be appreciated!

Need some help identifying a movie

Alright so I watched this movie a couple years back and my memory of it is pretty sketchy. It starts of with a rich man driving up to a convenience store and then some young adult punks pull up next to him and hit on his daughter but she's rude to them and they get mad, follow them home and then hold them hostage in the rich man's house. A couple significant parts that I remember is that the girl's younger brother has a bunch of secret tunnels that go throughout the house and the boy can spy on the criminals holding his family captive. Another part that's a little bit gross is that the really creepy guy tries to rape the girl but soon after he ties her up she breaks free and stabs his throat. This is about all I can remember but I remember the film to be great.

It's an arcade themed movie!

Okay so I have been going crazy trying to figure out what movie this is. I can't find it anywhere on the internet! I first saw it a long time ago when I was a kid, and it was just recently on YTV sometime in the past 6 months. So anyway, no idea what it's called, but it involves a boy who's I dunno probably 10 or 12 or something of the sort, and all I can remember is he ends up going to like a national/international competition for like an arcade championship thing, and I believe it may involve him playing super mario bros at one point. All I know is it's about a boy who's really good at video games and he goes to this championship thing and his friends or family come along with him. It's not a documentary it is fiction and I'm thinking it was made late 80s early 90s. Somebody help!!!

late 80s early 90s horror movie

Strictly grade b late 80s early 90s horror movie

I dont remember a whole lot about this movie, this rich guy would collect bodies for parts and even have local ambulance drivers collect car crash victims and take them to his mansion. One of the drivers exlaimed one of the worst movie quotes but typical for a horror movie I guess: "You cant cant aids from a dead person!"

It might be "The Wizard" from 1989.

K this movie is driving me nuts. It is a little kids movie (cartoon). I think it is from the late 80's early 90's but i'm not positive.

It starts out where this little girl and her grandpa i think are driving down a road. The little girl has with her a puppy. (it is raining outside i believe). The trucks stops and of course the puppy jumps out without the two even noticing. They find out later by lifting up a hat or something that was covering his bed.

Anyways in the morning the once the puppy wakes up i believe he meets up with these rabbits. The rabbits are trying to get him to eat i think so they are trying to feed him carrots. They start singing or something but then the hawk comes and they all run away.

After the while the puppy starts to get sick because he can't live of carrots so the bunnies have to carry somewhere someone will find him to get him home. But before they get there i think the hawk comes back and threatens to harm one of the bunnies so the puppy has to get up enough energy to save them, then they finally get him back up to the road. Then of course the little girl and the old man come back to find him right where they stopped the night previously.

PLLLZZZZ does anyone know lol. its is tearing me up inside. I used to watch it alll the time when i was a kid.

Don't think anyone answered this yet...it's "The Seventh Brother" from 1995.

either escapes from a mental hospital or maybe even a women's jail.

a man someone loses his hand in a car wreck, the doctors put a replacement hand on it and it is a serial killers old hand, obviously you can figure out the plot from there,
any ideas please let me know

idle hands was his own possessed hand. I think you're looking for Body Parts with Jeff Fahey.


Or it may be "The Hand" with Michael Caine.

sounds remotely like

Help!

I watched a movie a while back.. a year or two ago perhaps? About a serial killer, who leads a normal life, has two kids... etc. Not sure about a wife? Anyhow.. he murders all of these seemingly innocent victims. As the movie progresses your learn that he can somehow see all of the bad things these people have done to other people in their lives, feels he's doing god's work.... End of the movie, his son who also has the ability to see these things, ends up killing him because he sees that his father has murdered etc. and he takes over his father's place killing people who have sinned.

I want to watch it again, but have no idea what it is, or who is in it.. i thought it was dennis quaid.. but i was wrong, and then i thought maybe mel gibson.. but wrong again. I need help figuring this one out!

Anyone??
My husband drives my nuts with this movie line, and he has challenged me to figure out what movie it is! For the last 12 years or so, if anyone mentions the word "sticky" he says "Well, at least I'm not sticky" in a sort of British accent I think it is.
He says he saw it in a movie, but only saw a bit of the movie- it was a desert scene, and a lady with what he says is a British accent said it. That is all he remembers about it.
I have googled and all I come up with is the movie My Chauffeur, and had him watch the trailer, and I showed him the part of the script with a saying similar, but he is adament that is not the right movie!
Does anyone have any other ideas! He thinks it might have been a BBC type movie, and says it is NOT a monty python- (another one he loves to quote from!)

Check out the movie "Frailty" 2002 starring Bill Paxton and Mathew McConaughay. This might be what your looking for.

Need help indentifying this movie

If there is a thread for this type of question, I completely missed it. I looked over a couple of pages of topics and used the search engine, so I assumed it didn't exist.

Anyway, the movie is about a group of 8 or so people [and this is in the UK or at least most of the characters have a British accent] that are trapped in a mansion. The owner is playing a game with them to see who snaps first and kills the others. The last one left alive gets a lot of money [probably a million dollars], but the winner doesn't actually leave the mansion, they just go to a new part of it and meet a group of people who have "won" and are cradling their "rewards".

If anyone could please tell me what the name of the movie is it would be greatly appreciated. Also if another thread exists and this needs to be closed, could the mods wait until someone has answered, and then close it?

Thanks

No idea.

Reminds me of 13 Ghosts and Saw mashed together.

Sounds cool, what are the "rewards"?

The reward was their bag of money. I just quoted it because while they have a huge bag of money, they can never use it, so killing all those people wasn't worth it at all. So it was a horrible, yet amusing irony.

Spirit Trap?
