    I believe the movie references a cicada. That is why the boy transforms into a monster after 17 years (the life cycle of a cicada).

      In my defense, I'm pretty sure Joe Bob Brigs called it a mantis. But then again the character John Bloom used for Joe Bob was that of an ignorant redneck that didn't let facts get in the way of what he knows.

        Hello.
        This is a hard one and I doubt anyone knows the movie. But let's give it a try.
        What I can remember.
        1.The movie is either american or european. it is not asian. that's for sure.
        2.it must have been made between the 50s and the 70s. maybe earlier. but it was definitely made before the 80s.
        3.The movie is a period adventure but I cant remember the exact era of history that it is set. The swords are rapiers, like those in the Three Musketeer films, so the movie must be during, before or after that period (16th-17th century)
        4.the main characters of the story are two swordsmen, one younger, the other older. they meet and become friends. they also meet two women and become friends with them too. there is also the villain of the movie whom they face.
        5.Now here is the important part: the older sworsman can communicate in a way with the birds. he doesnt order them but the birds consider him a friend and follow him.
        6.there is a scene where the two friends fight a bunch of baddies in front of the two ladies to demonstrate their swordsmanship skills. they defeat the baddies, but they return and grab the older swordsman and rip off his shirt. The birds, I think two hawks, attack the baddies in their faces and forces them to let loose the good guy. He defeats them again. All this happens in front of the two ladies who then go to congratulate the two men.
        And that's all I can remember from the movie. Anyone knows the title?

          Did we guess your previous query correctly - re: 70s/80s action movie about diamonds, 2 men and 1 woman? You didn't bother replying

                  I'm pretty sure my suggestion was the correct answer . It would just be nice of Killick to answer before starting another pointless query

                    Hello.
                    I am looking for a horror movie made in the 70s/early 80s with Donald Pleasance as the co-star.
                    What I can remember:
                    1.it's set in a castle in modern times.
                    2.a group of various people visit the castle after an inviitation by the owner.
                    3.the owner has a crazy brother who wears rags and keeps him hidden in the dungeon of the castle. the crazy brother is played by Pleasance.
                    4.the visitors are murdered one by one. Pleasence kills his brother's wife or girlfriend with a driller.
                    I looked in his imdb filmography but I didnt manage to find it.
                    anyone knows the title of that movie?

                      I'm drawing a complete blank. Are you certain it was Pleasance?

                          I doubt it since his character's name doesn't seem like he'd be what you say (type actually), but
                          The Monster Club (1981)
                          ?

                            If you are sure that he is in it, you could check his filmography list on his page until you find the movie.

                              Found it, it's actually from 1989.
                              it's called The House of Usher
                              http://www.imdb.com/board/10095332/reference

                                Hello.
                                I am looking for two music videos made in the 80s or early 90s.
                                What I can remember:
                                1.The first movie has an industrial aesthetic and is probably pop electronica. There is something like a circus show happening with robots. A man who wears a welding suit and a mask, operates the robots by moving some levels while standing on a podium. The robots are small in size and look like those retro robot toys. He gives a show in a big circus looking arena to a crowd of kids who cheer while the robots dance and do funny stuff.
                                Then the show ends and the man leaves the arena. The robots are still there silent. Two children from the audience, a boy and a girl, were hiding somewhere and after the man leaves, they go to the podium and start operating the levels. The robots start dancing but after a while they become uncontrollable and turn against the two kids who are scared and try to escape from there. Just in time, the man returns, uses the levels to take control of the robots and saves the children. and that's it.
                                2.This one I think is pop rock. It's set on the top of a hill in a sunny day. On the top of the hill, there is a big machine, it looks like a radar with its antenna aiming on the sky. There is an old guy, the inventor of the machine and his young assistant. A car appears with some men in it. They arrest the old man and they drive away from the top of the hill. The young assistant sits on the machine and starts operating it. The weather starts changing, the machine is a weather machine which controls the weather. Then it star ts raining heavily. The old man who is inside the car, sees rain and looks towards the rear windshield of the car towards the top of the hill and smiles. and that's it.
                                any idea what are the titles of those music videos/music songs? I tried Youtube and Google but my efforts were unsuccessful.

                                  Second one is Cloudbusting by Kate Bush. The old man is played by Donald Sutherland.

                                          Hello,
                                          First, I would like to apologize for my English 🙂
                                          For several years I have been looking for the title of a movie I watched on VHS about 24 years ago.
                                          The action of the film resembles MadMax or a post-apo atmosphere.
                                          The main character had longer hair, he rode a Musclecar.
                                          His opponents had pig heads instead of human heads.
                                          I remember there was a fire in the woods and a woman trapped.
                                          I hope that someone knows what movie I mean and will help me find it 🙂
                                          All the best!
