I am trying to find someone who knows the title of a movie I saw many years ago, around the early 1990s. It was a thriller about computers. I believe it started with a young kid getting a computer disk in the mail. When he installed it, I think he got sucked into the computer (kinda like a virtual reality thing). It was a great movie and I would love to get my hands on it. The ending had a twist - very unexpected.

I can remember the aisle it was in at the movie rental place so the title begins with a letter in the beginning of the alphabet if that helps.

I don't even know where to begin searching and this is driving me crazy!!

Sound familiar to anyone?

Could it be Brainscan

i thought it was brainscan aswell 😉

old under water movie question

does anyone know the title to this old movie? a cruise ship sank during the war in about 80 feet of water. Most of the passengers survived, living on the ship underwater.They were able to make their own food, water, air, etc. They didnt know how deep they were.They thought the Americans lost the war. They were under there for 30 or so years before a salvage team years later discovered the sunken ship. the people were still alive and not all wanted to come up to the surface. In one scene a diver was removing crustation from a portal window, when it fell away there was a little girl standing there looking out at him, they both got scared. Nobody beleived the little girl when she told them. I dont know when it was made, but i watched it back in the early eighties, and it seamed old then.thanks.

I haven't seen 'Brainscan' but I know the review sounds just like the movie described.

Movie I can't recall much of but loved growing up

I feel so lame not knowing anything about this movie. I recall watching it on the Disney channel as a young child oh let's say between '93 and '98. Its a christmas film if i'm not mistaken...a kid builds a snow man that has almost liberty spikes who talks to him...about what i don't recall exactly. I have also looked on the web and have found nothing as of yet. I am possitive its from the 80's but can't recall the name...I think the snowman's name started with a Z? the kid was depressed because winter would soon be over and his snowman/new found best friend was going to melt. ANY help would very much be appreciated...Thank you!

Ok, I only know the plot of this movie and I think it was one of those films made for tv.

It is set in a small town in the old english times where girls wore puffy dresses etc.

A girl falls in love with the towns priest and they see eachother secretly. She ends up falling pregnant to him and there is a major drama when the townspeople find out because her husband is away at war. They demand to know who the father is but she never tells. There is one scene where she walks down the street and everyone is mocking her, throwing things at her etc. and she looks up at the priests house where he is standing in his window and watching it all happening and its all very sad.

The townspeople put her in jail and she actually gives birth in jail, then they tell her that they will kill her unless she tells them who the father is. The day that they are going to kill her, the priest visits her to give her the final blessing, but confesses his love and says lots of nice things to her and decides to tell everyone that he is the father. In the end they runaway together and leave the town and live happily ever after!

Any help on actors names or anything would be fantastic. thanks.

Thornbirds??????

Hello & Happy New Year.

Could you help me name a film please.

It must have been made some time around the early nineties. About a man who hid inside the walls of a Ladies apartment and tries to kill her at the end of the film.

I remember that in the apartment the window had a symbol of an 'eye' in it (Stain glass I believe)

I am afraid thats about all I know.

Can you help?

God Bless

I'm trying to figure out the name of an old movie

Ok, I saw this on TV about 12 years ago. I don't know if it was a movie or an episode in a series. Anyway, I was young, but here's what I remember about the movie....

In the beginning of the movie, this woman has 2 baby boys, I believe they were outside on a blanket, the phone rings, the mother goes to answer it, she comes back and one of her babies have been kidnapped. When the kids get older, I think the end up becoming friends for a short while in high school or something (not knowing they're brothers). Anyway, the one boy invites the kidnapped boy over for dinner one day, and he comes over. Somehow they end up in an argument during the movie, and he tells the kidnapped boy to leave. Later I think he finds out that he was his brother.

This is all I can remember, but it was a very good show/episode....
And I would really appreciate if anybody could help me figure out what it is.

If it's not "Tron", try "The Net".

It is certainly not The Net.

Murder Movie

Howdy one and all. The wife and I are trying to find out the name of a movie with Brian Dennehy or Richard Crenna as a Detective. The bad guy hides in an apartment by "painting himself into the brick wall". He terrorizes a young coed.
That's all we can recall, but we would sure like some help finding this movie.

Yeah, I figured that out. I kept thinking Sphere for some reason. Similar stories IMO. Thanks though.
