Meanwhile, a mysterious hooded figure uses a blowpipe to shoot Bentley Bobster and Reverend Duncan Nesbitt with hallucinogenic thorns, causing the men to experience nightmare-like hallucinations (Bobster thinks to be attacked by a cooked bird and by his own objects, while Nesbitt thinks he sees a stained-glass figure of a knight come to life and try to kill him), resulting in their deaths by jumping out of a window and being run over by a carriage.

I’m coming late to this thread, but Muzzy’s was the first one I could nail.

Third clue:

As the meteorite is too hot to touch, he douses it with water, causing it to crack open and spew a glowing blue substance that comes into contact with his skin.

Vickers sets up closed-circuit TV cameras so he can watch them die from the comfort of his well-appointed beach house.

Northrup sees the creature as a way to rid himself of his perpetually drunk, obnoxious and emotionally abusive wife, Wilma, whom he often daydreams of killing.

Not seen it. It's on my list.

I knew the stained glass knight would give it away, but I just liked the name Bentley Bobster.

I had to look this one up, but it's not They Live.

Oooh, intriguing. A classic bait-and-switch?

Me neither. I feel like it's time for another watch.

I also got yours from the stained glass knight. Probably the only thing I remember from the entire film, which I don't think I've seen since watching it at the cinema.

poprock

That stained glass bit was the first fully CGI character in a movie, wasn’t it? A proper watershed moment.

g.man

I believe so.

davyK

Yup. I remember the hype around that stained glass scene. Sticks out in my mind too.

Moot_Geeza

It's all about the nightmare cake people though.

hylian_elf

One from me.

“Caul, his colleague Stan and some freelance associates have taken on the task of bugging the conversation of a couple as they walk through crowded Union Square in San Francisco, surrounded by a cacophony of background noise. Amid the small-talk, the couple discuss fears that they are being watched, and mention a discreet meeting at a hotel room in a few days. The challenging task of recording this conversation is accomplished by multiple surveillance operatives located in different positions around the square.”

hylian_elf

Hmmmmaybe that’s too easy.

g.man

I'd presume that is...

The Conversation.

hylian_elf

Yep. Too easy.

I’ll have to find a more cryptic one that is also unique to the film. Not easy this.

nick_md

Wasn't easy!

JonB

I thought it was probably that but I've not actually seen it.

Spoiler:

Still got it wrong lol

hylian_elf

It’s literally got the name of the film on the second line. But I guess you gotta know the film name in first place to see it stand out.

hylian_elf

I guess I’ll only look up my favourite or well known films.

Rumpelstiltskin

Nobody has got my second one yet.

Here's a few. Nothing too obscure:

1. The next morning, Mike disobeys his father's orders by sneaking out to go sailing with his friends, taking his younger brother Sean with him to keep him silent. Marge, another teen, takes Sean with her, and they head out on six separate boats, going past a team of divers led by instructor Tom Andrews.

2. The next day, the boys swim across a swamp and discover that it is filled with leeches.

3. On Halloween, after Daniel sprays water on Johnny with a hose while he's rolling a joint, he and his gang pursue Daniel down the street and, after pulling him down from a fence he attempts to climb, savagely beat him...

4. Two weeks later, the Minister demonstrates Alex's rehabilitation to a gathering of officials. Alex is unable to fight back against an actor who taunts and attacks him and becomes ill wanting sex with a topless woman.

5. Although distraught over the notion of being executed while innocent, John tells Paul that he wishes to die; he views the world as a cruel place and constantly feels the cruelty of humanity like shards of glass in his head.

Howdy, Stranger!
