Title: Foreign (?) movie identification Post by: npa412 on November 09, 2005, 10:24:44 AM When I was 6 (around 1980/1) I was travelling in Europe with my parents and I remember watching two movies for which I can't figure out the names and origins. Any help would be appreciated. I've tried IMDB, but to no avail.
Movie 1) Watched in Romanian theater and dubbed into Romanian. I believe the movie was advertised as Superpolizist (German for "Supercop"). So it may only have been a German movie (don't know if it ever was a U.S. Film). The premise of the move was that this human cop had superhuman strength, speed, etc. but upon seeing the color "red" he would temporarily lose his powers. I remember him running after some some baddies in a car, but then he came across a red truck (?) and had to stop pursuit. Movie 2) This one gave me nightmares. Remember seeing this in Germany on TV. I don't know if it was black and white, but that's how I remember the scary parts. All I remember about this was some ominous shadow-like non-descript moster (fairly two-dimensional) that would walk along the city skyline. The shadow monster looked like it had a black ghost-like sheet thrown over him. It was as tall as the buildings in the city. I wish I could remember more. They could be nothing more than whacky foreign films, which never came out of the U.S. Again, any help would be appreciated!

I just added Super Fuzz to the top of my Netflix queue and should be reliving a part of my childhood sometime this weekend!
