Movie Identification (Post here if you're looking for the name of a movie)

It's 100% V. There is a girl called Elizabeth in it who is half human half alien and the aliens are reptilian.

Is there a movie which has a scene of an old guy taking a micro-cassette audio tape in a steel nutcracker before cracking it open like a nut? The tape was very small, slightly bigger than a 2 euro coin.. it's a distant memory so I'm guessing a movie from the 90s but I could be wrong.

Real Genius (1985)

A foreshadowing of Zoom school maybe?!

European possibly french or Belgium film about a young girls experience at school and bullying

I saw a trailer for it few months ago, it looked compelling as hell. I know it was released in Ireland/UK in 2022 but can't find it on film classification boards lists. All I remember are scenes of under 10 year old girl looking sad, her brother rejecting her in school and being isolated on the playground

Anyone got any ideas?

Hi everyone!

I need your help to find a specific movie for my best friend. As a child somewhere around the end of the 80's or the beginning of the 90's he saw a certain scene on TV that scared the hell out of him back then and he still remembers it to this day. Unfortunately he doesn't know what movie or TV movie it was and even years later when he saw that scene again, he didn't memorized the title :D

So here are all the infos we have in regard to that movie:

- The scene: In a modern day city setting a guy (real person) enters a dark room - perhaps a factory or a (storage) hall - and after a few minutes little (perhaps 1,5 feet / 50 cm tall) red winged devils or demons animated in stop-motion (!) start to fly around him while bugging him at the same time.

- From his second encounter with this scene my friend remembers that the movie was some sort of a silly horror comedy, which confused him a little cause that wasn't what he had experienced back in the 80's or 90's :D Also back then it ran during the afternoon which means it can't be harder than a PG-13 movie.

- Regarding the scene it reminds me very much of the "Jim Henson's The Storyteller" episode "The Soldier and Death", but he says it's not it.

We already tried a few things to find it, but so far nothing led to the right movie. Perhaps you guys know which movie it could be, cause after I had the chance to relive my childhood trauma "The Gate" a few years ago it's now finally time for him to relive his too :D

Thanks in advance, all the best and cheers!

That could be Kiss of the Dragon.

Tceky Kayro is the corrupt French police detective and Jet Li is the hero cop over from Hong Kong to help with a case.

It is a French film but as far as I remember most of the dialogue is English.

I don’t know if this is a movie or TV show but one character is telling another how getting hit on the head is serious matter and that characters who get hit on the head (especially multiple times) would be dead or at least suffering from brain damage.

No, the film is an action comedy because the person being told the statement is hitting people on the head repeatedly.

I was asked to inquire about this - none of it is familiar to me.

an American comedy most likely from the 1980s. A businessman/inventor and his wife are constantly fighting. He creates or discovers a medical device that will make him a fortune. He does some underhanded business to make it look like he is bankrupt so the wife will divorce him and once she is gone he will make his “comeback”. The wife discovers the scheme and uses the medical device in the husband in an attempt to kill him. He survives but the side effect is that he suffers outrageous spasms at the worst possible times.

There is a scene where he accidentally hits a blind woman in the street during a spasm. Every time he tries to say sorry she uses his voice to know where to beat him with her cane.

anyine know what the film could be

I actually know the name of the movie, but I think this is a suitable thread for this question. A few weeks ago I noticed a film called "A Surplus of Love" listed in the on-screen guide for one of the Virgin Media channels, with a short summary mentioning "orphan", "pickpocket" etc. When I selected the channel it turned out to be the 1948 version of "Oliver Twist". I didn't see the opening or closing credits so I don't know what title appeared on screen. But the only name for this movie that I can see on IMDB or Wikipedia or anywhere else is "Oliver Twist". There seems to be no mention anywhere of any alternate title "A Surplus of Love". Why did VM call it this in the listings for that day?

Long shot, but is it that Brendan Fraser movie where he is a caveman? California Man.

Must have been a mix up. Surplus Of Love sounds like a Yank sitcom, not one of the better known adaptations of one of Dickens most famous novels.
