Title: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: Ash on August 16, 2008, 10:33:48 PM I watched The Silence of the Lambs the other day and that line Buffalo Bill says in it cracks me up every time.
I'm also in the middle of writing a review of the cheesy 1980 movie "Midnight Madness" and near the end of it, Harold uses Barf's hand to break the glass on one of those boxes mounted on the wall that holds a firehose. He then uses it to threaten the yellow team but ends up spraying a group of security guards instead. I was curious to see if you guys can come up with some other films, good or bad, where hoses are either used or mentioned. Another one is the end of "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" where that cop says to Clark Griswold's boss, "That's pretty low mister. If I had a rubber hose I would beat you..." Can you think of any movies where a hose (or water cannon) is used or talked about?

Title: Re: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: RCMerchant on August 17, 2008, 12:28:31 PM Ah! Thought of another! I got this dvd too!
FRANKENSTIEN and the MONSTER from HELL! About 30 seconds into the clip, Simon Ward gets hosed! (heheh! I said 'hosed!") http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0r_mO7rrAE the end of the 3 Stooges DISORDER in the COURT... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-pFPbfD2ms Jet Li beats the crap outta people in ROMEO must DIE with a fire hose.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMw37Dbx1os Title: Re: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: Rev. Powell on August 17, 2008, 06:01:13 PM Just about every women's prison movie has a scene like this, but surprisingly I couldn't find one example on youtube. What's this world coming to?

Title: Re: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: The Burgomaster on August 17, 2008, 08:20:57 PM Not a movie, but in the TV show WELCOME BACK, KOTTER, John Travolta was immortalized by saying, "Up your nose with a rubber hose."
Also, during the climax of SHAFT, the bad guys get sprayed with a high-pressure fire hose. The prom scene at the end of CARRIE features people being sprayed with hoses. There are hoses aplenty in THE TOWERING INFERNO.

Don't forget to get him behind the ears!" :smile: Title: Re: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: Jack on August 18, 2008, 07:17:11 AM One of my favorite hose scenes, The Dead Pit, right at about 29 seconds

Title: Re: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: The Burgomaster on August 18, 2008, 05:42:29 PM I seem to recall Clint Eastwood as 'Dirty Harry Callaghan' use a water cannon to knock an adversary out of his guard tower in "The Enforcer". Actually, I think he used a LAW (Light Anti-tank Weapon). That movie always aggravates me because they keep referring to it as a "Laws Rocket" instead of just a LAW. Title: Re: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: JJ80 on August 18, 2008, 06:50:58 PM Sorry about that. In hindsight I must have been misremembering!
Title: Re: "...Or else it gets the hose again" Post by: JJ80 on September 06, 2008, 06:44:06 PM Sorry about this but I rewatched "The Enforcer" the other night and he does actually use the hydrant on the fire boat to knock the first guard out of the watch tower. He uses the LAW to kill the gang leader on the other tower when he is rescuing the kidnapped Mayor.
