That sounds like it alright, good spot. John Quade is in it, a sure sign it was made in the 70s!

1977

A short I saw on RTE about three years ago. Some man goes into a clock shop and cannot get out of it. All the walls are covered in clocks. I think maybe the door vanishes or becomes a wall. The owner is very strange

I googled and found clocky type films but not this one

Found this one, that looks at a quick glance to be what you're describing:

Wow

This thread is going places

trying to remember name of a sci-fi movie i saw in 80's. It's a low budget movie set in space maybe orbiting moon.

I remember one scene vividly, there's a character who's allergic to dairy based products, such so he remarks to another character who accidentally puts some cream in his coffee, he yells it could kill him.

There's a shapeshifting alien on board knocking off the crew one by one, until finally theres 3 of them left and he offers coffee to the allergic one and askes if he'd like cream and he says yes.

Not much to go on. But would like to see if I could find it.

It was I think a black and white movie (it is in my mind) but could have been colour. It was a vampire movie, possibly hammer. I imagine the vampire in question was dracula. Back in the day a movie, usually horror, used to be shown after the late late show. The movie would be at least 40-50 years old.

The one scene I remember was one of the good guys, possibly the protagonist, in a room, in the centre of which is a stone, waist high vault where you'd expect a coffin to be. There is only one door into the room. The camera pans from the protagonist to the doorway, up some steps and there stands the vampire. The vampire enters and the only thing separating them was the stone vault. I cannot convey how terrifying it was for a young me to see the predicament the protagonist had got himself into. Within touching distance of an actual vampire. The scene has stayed with me. SOMEHOW I think the protagonist escaped.

There's very little to go on. An old, possibly unreliable memory.

I've been meaning to ask this forum for some time. Any ideas?

Shot in the dark but Hammer's original Dracula from 1958?

Thanks EB. I'll check it out at the weekend.

No worries, link is timestamped to the possible/probable not scene

Just realised this thread exists, fantastic!

I've spent yonks trying to hunt down the name of the film, thinking it's likely I watched it at a film festival, between about 7 and 12 or so years ago.

At the end, the diabetic granny .

is seen dead on the bed, as the camera zooms out to reveal a beautiful layout of cakes and treats

.

Any idea of year? Haven't a clue from the description, but on the off-chance it might be on this, here's a list of movies featuring diabetes:

Hopefully someone will recognise it and be able to help you out better though

4) I'm looking for action/adventure movie from 90's.

A young couple (or engaged couple) arrive to foreign country, somewhere in Southeast Asia. At the start, they are kidnapped from a train by the rebels and imprisoned in their camp. Then, they meet a French couple who had been kidnapped some time earlier. The kidnappers want money from the French and American governments in exchange for the hostages. Any of governments doesn't agree to pay the ransom. Rebels murder men and send pictures of their bodies to their families. The parents of the killed American decide to save his girlfriend and arrive to this country to pay the kidnappers. The women organise to escape the camp, but no effect. Then, there is crucial scene, because women find a buddhist monk. I remember they stumbled upon him just as he was meditating, tried to get his attention, talked to him, kept his hands in his eyes, but he didn't budge. He was almost like silent. Once they gave up and wanted to go on, he stopped them. He shaved them bald, gave them a paste that made their skin a darker color, and orange robes and umbrellas (he used to wear one himself), in short - he helped them dress up as monks. Later they wandered through roads and fields, passing the rebels several times. People treated them with respect and bowed. At the end of the movie, one of the rebels drives past them and realizes it's them, turns back across the field and goes straight for them. The women panic, but the monk stands quietly, pulls his umbrella out in front of him, and at that moment the car explodes (crashed into a mine). At the end they traveled across (probably) a bridge and a van with the parents of the killed American passed them by, his mother met her son's girlfriend in one of the monks and got out to call her. The young, however, thought that it was only hallucinations and she turned away only after calling several times. The women thanked the monk and ran to the others, and he went on. The monk didn't say a word during movie, because he is silent or he pretends to be silent man. Perhaps, the movie was based on a fact.
