      I think there is a scene like that in Return From The River Kwai.

        KilliK — 9 years ago(October 29, 2016 08:36 PM)

        Hello.
        I am looking for the title of a horror b-movie made in the 70s (or 80s at most).
        What I can remember:
        1.it's set in modern times in a country town in South USA.
        2.The protagonist is a male teenager who transforms into a locust-looking humanoid. I dont remember if it was by an experiment someone did on him or a curse that runs through his family.
        3.When he transforms to the locust, he kindnaps his blonde girlfriend and rapes her in the woods. he leaves her unconscious there.
        4.your archetypical country sheriff is after him. I think he kills the monster in the end.
        5.I am not completely sure but I think it's a Roger Corman production. It's a cheap, b-movie.
        anyone knows what's the movie I am talking about?

          The Beast Within (1982)
          Saw it on Joe Bob Brig's Monstervision. Woman gets raped by a mantis monster. The child grows to a teen, and goes on a killing spree.

            Yes, it does sound like THE BEAST WITHIN although in that movie it is supposed to be a cicada monster.

              oh, the monster was supposed to be cicada? I always remembered it as a locust. thanks for clearing this out as well. 😉

                yep, that's it. it was a mantis, not a locust. thank you very much.

                  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

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