    Hi there,

    I am looking for a movie/tv movie or maybe an episode of a series.... dont know :(

    probably 1997-2006 (sorry thats the best i got) i geuss it's sci-fi genre

    all i remember from it is: a good guy a bad guy,the good guy might be a cyborg or have an artifical heart not sure...

    the bad guy i think kidnappes this girl for some knowlege
    i remember a scene in witch he connects these little pumps to her forehead so she can control this computer or somthing
    i remeber there is a virtual reality aspect to it beacaue there were these pods or sits that have like 3 crytal looking sticks on each side of the head and they close down like a crab's legs and then glow white.. and then the person enter this vr or cyber spcae or somthing...' the thing i rememr the most is that the good guy defeats the bad guy in the virtual reality in a game the resembles "half life" or some sorth of a first person shooter and a female voice computer tells the hero where to find the rocket luancher i think.... that's it! who ever solves this 1 is the best of.... the best........ hands down...

    Try this list here: http://www.cyberpunkreview.com/virtual-reality-movies/

    At first I thought Virtuosity or Existenz but I don't think it's either of those.

    Thanks, but it's not that one.

    It actually wasn't on Netflix I saw it. I checked a forum on a site I use to download sometimes (the topics I thanked) and found it that way.

    It's rubbishly titled 'Night Wolf'! :pac:
    I take it you didn't click on the link then. Night Wolf = 13 Hours.

    Ha! No I didn't - because I knew it wasn't called 13 hours...or so I thought...I mean I just new it wasn't that title that I watched. :)

    seen a movie in the 80's, rented from a video store, for some reason i think it was linked to nightmare on elm st., all i remember was a female robot at the end killing people and repeating B B Control. Any ideas?

    Think it could be 'Deadly friend'? havent seen it for years but it was good fun at the time!


  • Registered Users Posts: 51 ✭✭ianhmoore


    Sounds like the movie "Deadly Friend". It was directed by Wes Craven, same director of Nightmare On Elm Street.

    No need to shout, we can hear you!

    Also: More specific details would be nice. TV? Cinema? What channel?

    Also also: Moved to movie identification.

    I'm still waiting for the identification of my unknown movie... :(

    i have another 1 i need help with probably a ,tv movie from 2000-2006 sci-fi action
    mybe filmed in france probably in english
    might have ninja aspects
    i remember a secne where this woman (might be japanese) gives birth in the forest and it was raining i think....
    the Fetus rapidly grew into an adult (maybe it was also cacooned) and he killed the mother.
    and another secne where this guy buys this game from a video game store a game that maybe hasnt came out yet
    and the video game is somhow transmits this signals to a neck implant....... thats all i recall..... oh and the ending is that a kid plays the video game(in the apartment) and the guy fights this monster (the fetus from before) (i think) and makes him do some martial arts moves and cut off the "monster" head i think. nice ending.

    Right;

    One dad and 2 sons. The dad kills people who go against god, brainwashes one son, but the other doesn't work, strange twist in the end with regards to the sons.

    Its a horror movie and my friend is looking for the name of it.

    Here's One for you.

    Seen this film on RTE 1 on June 23, 1986 Just before the Barry McGuigan V Steve Cruz fight.

    It was about a little girl that see's her dead brothers ghost and he tell's her to do increasingly nasty things ending in killing the parents.

    I was only nine at the time and the film freaked me out :)

    This has wrecked my head for years and cant trace it on the net. It was in the 80's and the leading man was a robot thingy that comes to Earth and meets these kids and he helps them to look for the body of a missing boy. As far as I know Emilio Estevez was in it and maybe one of the Corey brothers.

    If you take the robot out of the equation, then it sounds exactly like
    Stand By Me
