Title: Need help with 2 movies (both from the 80's)
Post by: Giddeon on October 08, 2008, 07:35:34 AM
Hey there! There are 2 movies i've been trying to find for years. i remember seeing them on HBO or cinemax when i was very little.
the first one i remember a bit more of, it starts off with a guy watching a clip of a B&W b movie which a man puts something into a machine (i think) only to be killed by a woman who does the same thing. meanwhile the guy's girlfriend shows up in dominatrix gear and whips him to death when the clip ends. throughout the movie whoever watches the clip dies. i remember another part where the clip is shown at a video dance club and the whole place goes up in flames.

the 2 one i just remember one scene where a woman at a mall and she about to go on a esculator when she drops her lipstick. as she tries to pick it up her necklace gets caught  and she gets dragged up. the clerks frantically try to turn off the esculator and the necklace chain wraps more and more tightly around her head. that's all i remember of that one.
any help will be greatly apprieciated. thanks

The first one sounds a little bit like Remote Control from 1988.

The second is definitely The Kiss.  It's about this women who's can transfer her soul (or some such) to anyone of her bloodline through a kiss, so she targets her niece by moving in with the girl and her father (guy's wife/girl's sister just died, so she can't transfer it to her.)

Along the way she uses voodoo or some such to off the young girl's friends (can't remember why, though.)  Before that scene, I remember they were talking to the young girl's love interest, a guy who works at a bakery in the mall.  He's telling them how some kid wanted a cake decorate with a young boy with bones sticking out of his mouth, "...as though he just ate her parents."

Good catch on that one. :thumbup:


Two other scenes which stand out from this movie and may help jog the memory:

The aforementioned girl's mother has an unfortunate accident early in the film where she is walking downtown and a pickup truck goes out of control and veers into her, knocking her through a plate glass shop window. As you see her under the truck, from her feet, some come to her aid and pull her from under the truck, but one of her legs stays behind.

The aforementioned boyfriend, or whatever he was, is attacked by a cat while driving along, after he found out something (something like that). He stops the vehicle and gets out to get the cat off of him, only to have stepped into the path of an oncoming semi.
