Once when I was a kid (sometime in the 80s) my parents were watching a movie after I had been sent to bed. Naturally, I sneaked into the hall and hid behind the couch to try to watch it. I got caught, though, and I was pretty young, so I only remember two scenes of the whole thing, and none of the plot or actors:
The first scene showed a man walking down a set of stairs in front of a building (like a court house or something), passing through another man without realizing it. The man he passed through was either a ghost or a hallucination or something like that, but I got the feeling that he was a bad guy.
The second scene showed a man on the floor of his house, he had been turned or transformed into a pile of pinkness. I just remember that it was really gross, and for some reason I thought he looked like a giant human 4-tiered cake, or a giant pile of strawberry soft serve or something. And his family was there and they were all upset about it. Yeah, I didn't eat cake or ice cream for a long time after that.
Anyway, I know that's not much to go on, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
