    I'm not dead

    Frost here. I was feeling nostalgic and thought I would check in. It's good to see you guys still trucking and some names I remember still around. Let me know if you guys need anything, short of me writing, because that's not happening.

    Help identify a TV show for my column

    It's called Mr. Moon's Magical Circus.
  3. I have a question that has been bothering me for almost 25 years. There was this tv show. It was on Saturday mornings and had a character named Mr. Moon. He was a clown. All I can remember is that he would say, “See (touching his eyes) you (pointing at the screen) later (waving).” It was probably the early 80s. It might be local, but it was not a live show, at least I do not think so. I never got the idea it was local, but I was just a kid. However I grew-up in the greater NYC area so it could be. I think there was circus type thing going on for background of the show. It might have been on channel 11 in NY but I am not sure.

    Help identify movie

    Any help as always would be appreciated. I have been dying to find out what movie this is. When I was younger I remember seeing a part of movie where Jesus was on a cross, but it was present day. This part of the movie took place on a live TV Show, like Jerry Springer. The crowd was cheering or booing and I remember the camera zooming into see Jesus' face who had a tear in his eye. What movie is this?

    Help indetify two movies

    It's been awhile since I've posted here, but I'm trying to run these two movies down any which way I can and you guys have helped in the past. Thanks for any help this time. I remember a horror movie from the mid to late eighties. The killer was a shadowy figure who used a stick with razor blades somehow imbedded in the stick to do away with his victims. I remember one scene where he's hacking away at some guy and we see the chopping of fingers. It's pretty gross. And the other scene is of a girl showering, she looks kind of like a very, and I mean very young Janeane Garofalo, except for being very well endowed. And then the killer comes in and, well, kills her. This first one I remember seeing when I was very young so we're talking late 70s. It's about a man who is a teacher and turns into a kid at random times. He tries to keep it a secret. The episode I remember is when it's vaccination day at the school and the teacher turns into a kid and he gets vaccinated. Then at the end of the episode he becomes a man and the other teachers take him to get vaccinated again much to his chagrin.

    Identify movie for my column

    "Hi there, I have a very obscure question, and I have been wondering this for years now. There's a movie that takes place a college (so that narrows it down right?) and really, the only thing I can remember about it was this hot girl standing on top of a roof of a building and looking like she wants to jump off, but all the kids at the college just ignore her, except for this one guy who I don't know who he is. I think darlene from roseanne MIGHT be in the movie?" I checked Sara Gilbert's filmography and a couple movies seem possible. I want to say it's Poison Ivy, but it's been years since I've seen that.

    I didn't see that this got so many responses. My buddy Shawn identified the film and it was indeed the Boys in Company C thanks for your guys' help.

    Help identify movie for my column

    My guess here is Tribes, but I haven't seen it in years and I have the gut feeling that it's someting a bit more well known, but it's not clicking with me. "It's a Vietnam war movie. The opening scenes are some conscripts being sent to camp and having the mandatory shave. Sergeant says about one guy, "I want Jesus here bald!" And later in the film, in Vietnam one guy is stuck with his foot on the mine, and he can't move it or e4lse he would blow up... This is where I had to leave, so I would like to please know the name of the film so i can find it and see how it ends."

    Help with Question from my Column

    A guy this week wrote in to ask what the song is that is playing during the cage match in the underground club section of Land of the Dead. I can't find a music credit anywhere and the soundtrack appears to be the score and it's not on there from the sources I could find.

    Help identify movie for my column

    I don't think this is Signs. Any help is appreciated. I'm trying to find out the name of a movie. It had to do with a family on a farm getting terrorized by aliens. It starts when a couple of them go out into the field at night to check on their cattle. What they see is an alien cutting it open with a laser. They get back to the house to warn the others, but when they go to leave the engines in their vehicles are all melted. different things happen during the night like everyone having nosebleeds. It's all filmed by one of the people in the house, and showed like a news story on the missing family. Feels a lot like blair witch, but I'm sure this came out before.

    Help identify movie for my column

    I figured Emilio Estevez and Wonderful World of Disney were red herrings. I don't think asking the guy who else was in the movie would be any help. Bill Murray did the first Meatballs and Michael J. Fox was in Poison Ivy. Thanks for trying guys, I appreciate the help.

    Help identify movie for my column

    Any help as always is appreciated. I don't really have an idea on this one and couldn't find anything through my usual searching. First of all, an obscure movie from my childhood/early adolescence. I believe this was on the Wonderful World of Disney in the late 80s early 90s, where this man becomes a camp counselor for this troubled youth whose only love is cross-country running, the typical blond-hair angst-filled pre-teen. The movie culminates with a race between the boy and a boy from a rival summer camp. What sticks out in my head is that the troubled boy was mediocre at running on the road, but as soon as they entered the woods he was this phenomenal runner among trees and through dirt and stuff. Emilio Estevez could have played the camp counselor, but then my brain was also convinced that Emilio Estevez played the teacher in Summer School, so I can't say for sure.

    Help Identify Christmas Movie for My Column

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085231/?fr=c2...9b24_;fc=1;ft=1 Some of my other minions have pegged it as The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. That's the imdb link to it.
  18. Any help is as always greatly appreciated. "It’s a Christmas movie about a family of kids that are really poor who are outcasts and mean to the other kids in school. They’re in maybe fifth or sixth grade. The school is putting on a Christmas play and the girl of the poor family wants to play Mary, which she ends up being. I think I remember the kids attacking some firemen or something that came to the school and a brother and sister befriend them, I believe. I think the title is the last name of the family, I’m not sure. Is that enough information? I would like to watch it again and let my son see it because I remember that I liked it very much and my class at school saw a play based on it at a local theater. Do you know what it is? Thank you for your time."

    The Star Wars Holiday Special...

    I've sat through the Holiday Special probably five times because people I know keep wanting to see it. I warn them, but they don't listen. It's the second worse thing I own on tape of DVD after Rudy Ray Moore is Rude which no one ever has been able to get through more than five minutes of.

    Identify Movie for my Column

    Now, I thought you could help me find the title of a Kung-fu film I saw as a kid. I only remember one scenes, in which the protagonists enter a restaurant and are assailed by an assassin, who introduces himself and demonstrates his skills only to be struck down by another assassin, who introduces himself and demonstrates his skills only to be struck down by another assassin etc... This seemed to go on forever and the assassins and weapons used seemed to get even more bizarre as time went on. I definitely remember one of them used razor sharp chopsticks as their weapon of choice. Not much to go on, I know...

    Help Identify Movies for my Column

    "I'm looking for help identifying a movie I saw on TV a couple of years ago. It was about 6 or 7 years ago, on either BBC or ITV in the UK, and it was on after some manga movie as part of a season of animated films. I realise that wont help you, but it might ring some bells with someone. Its not a japanese-style animation, and the narration sounded american. The characters were vaguely reminiscant of Fido Dido in appearance. OK, its animated, and starts with 2 guys in hell, hanging by the hair from hooks on a cliff wall, surrounded by other people hanging from hooks too. It then goes into flashback as these 2 guys (brothers?) talk about what happened to lead them to this. I dont remember the plot but it involved a yellow dog and a bus, and the brothers being chased by bad guys. There may have been a scene with the brothers glumly sitting on the hollywood sign. Things go wrong and the brothers finally end up being put in hell, with the line that stuck with me ever since "And thats how we came to be here, Hanging on Hair-Hooks in hell.". Just then the dog drives the bus into hell and rescues the brothers, leaving the villains hanging on hair-hooks in their place." "I got a question about a mockumentary that aired on Comedy Central back in 1994 or 1995. I have no idea what the name of it was...it was a parody of MTV. It had a few music videos, one was a parody of the New Kids on the Block's "Hanging Tough"...where the fans proceeded to hang em by ropes. The other was a parody of LL Cool J and it had the line "my penis is only 4 inches long, which is 2 inches shorter than the average man". It also had a part where they spoofed the "we are the world" song with all the musicians...but they came together for a McDonald's commercial." "Where would I find out the names of some of the old movies they played on "USA Up All Night"? There's three of them from the late 80's that I kinda remember being as I was a young'n. One was about a giant tit that tried to take over the world. It milked it's victims to death naturally. I'm not sure if that was on USA or not but I could swear I remember Gilbert Godfrey commenting on it. The second started out with a court jester up under the skirt of a queen or princess when the king comes in and catch's him. The jester defends himself by saying "You said whenever I was around I could look her up." And then they showed his head being cut off. And finally there was one about a mute 400 pound bald cannibal that would eat people whole. I remember a scene of him taking a date down a street where he ate these people showing an overturned hot dog cart."

    Help identify film for my column

    I'm thinking the guy was just watching Hogan's Heroes. Prove me wrong! "I've been reading your column for awhile trying to come up with a question and I finally got one. I was watching some network tv late one Saturday night and ran across what might be the most bizarre comedy I've ever seen. It seemed like it was trying to satire Casablanca but it didn't do a very good job. It's about a rag-tag brigade of the American Army fighting in WW2 but it's a comedy. The only defining thing about it I can remember is that when something would happen that was good they would say HEIL FIVE and high five each other. Sorry it's skimpy on details but any help would be appreciated. "

    Have mercy on me. 1) "If I remember it correctly), a contemporary (for the time) retelling of Frankenstein, set in the 70's judging by the hairstyles and wide lapels. I recall two scenes from the film one in which "the monster" twists someones head until it pops off and another where a tractor trailer or cargo container is barricaded and set fire to. I believe this was a trap to try and kill off "the monster" and it would reflect the castle burning at the end of the original 30's Frankenstein. I did the IMDB search but couldn't find a match." 2) "I think it was a war-movie , and the scene I remember is with two guys (prisoners) working/standing at a railroadtrack. Then one of them goes to a guard, says something, spits in his own hand, and grinds the other fist in his palm (lousy description, but it was an insult to the guard). The guard then shoots the guy in one hand, then the other, one foot and the other, and the guy finally dies when someone throws an axe into his back. I only remember this one scene, and I think I remember it being snowy, and the guards looking Eastern European. 3) The second one is a very long shot, since I only saw like a minute of it , and all I remember is it being set in some desertlike landscape (maybe prehistoric), and there were these giant bugs flying around, and one of the characters squashed the bug in real gory b-movie style. Thats about it, and I must admit if you get anything out of this, you are truly a genius." 4) "First, I'm looking to identitfy an animated movie with a Unicorn. It is not the last Unicorn, and its not Unico. Are there any other animated movies about unicorns out there from the 70-80's that I'm just not aware of? 5) Along time ago at around 4 am, I saw a movie on my local Fox channel. The story was something like this. A guy and girl fall in love, the girls dad kills the girl, why I forget. The guy then brings her back to life as a zombie, I think. I have no idea what this movie was. The dad may have been Robert England. I think the girl may have burned the house down at the end. 6) Around 6am on cinemax, in like 97, I saw the strangest ending to a movie ever, IMHO. But I didn't see the rest of the movie, so I'm at a total loss. This guy is standing over a grave, making a siloquy, and then a hand pops out and starts choking him, I think. Only thing was, the hand was wearing a yellow rubber cleaning glove....Due to foggy memory, there may not have been choking, but I do remember a hand comming out of the grave in one of those yellow rubber cleaning gloves. 7) I didn't get to finish watching this movie as a kid because well...to much boobage for a youngster. I only saw up untill the part of the building his girlfriend back together after the birthday gift he built her, or her dad, a remote control lawnmower, I think, went hair wire and it killed her, so he had to rebuild her. There was alot of nudity in the movie, which is why my parents were like, go to your room, now mister."
