Okay, I hope a thread like this hasn't been started.
Similar to the Episode help thread in the MST3k discussion section.. Sometimes there are movies you only remember vaguely.
Here's one I'm trying to find. It's about this guy whose beard sort of.. comes to life. Each little hair on his beard is like little snakes or something. I can't remember the title at all, and I don't think I watched any of it except the beginning, and this was long ago.

I have no idea what the film is... but I think this thread is a great idea.
If nobody minds I'm going to sticky this.

It was Stacy Keach and it was an anthology film.
John Carpenter's Body Bags. I reckon.
(The segment was called "Hair".)

Okay, here's a long shot--
I was quite young and only remember vague snippets, nothing about the plot...
Back in the early '80s, WGN used to run this movie (miniseries?) over and over. I must have seen bits and pieces of it at least 5 times.
It was an ensemble thriller and featured a submarine, or some sort of pod with portholes and some key plot element with someone getting pressurized (?). Also, at the end, one of the protagonists fell over a railing to their death below (railing kill).
I've been looking for this for over 20 years, so if you can help, I'll be amazed. But it's worth a try anyway.

Mr. A, do you remember any of the cast?

Sorry, I don't. I was too young to know anyone.
It may have been a typical late '70s- early '80s B-list ensemble thriller. But I couldn't tell you for sure who was in it. It could have been a Quinn Martin Special for all I remember.
Now that I think about it, I'm fairly certain it was a miniseries.

OK, I have one. I used to see this when I was young (early '80's). The movie had zombies in it, and the only thing I remember was there is a scene where the main character is trapped at the top of a lighthouse, with all the zombies closing in. Suddenly the song "Land of a 1000 Dances" starts playing and he is able to escape because all of the zombies start dancing.
I never said it was a Oscar winning movie, but I just cannot remember what that movie was called.

This is a great thread. I had several questions about movies when I first came to this board and made ind. threads for them. Its nice to have it all on one thread. As I recall Chuck was a big help in that department. The guy is like a movie encyclopedia.

I saw a movie in the 70's when I was a kid. It was about this lady who went to visit her girlfriend, but when she got to the friend's house, she couldn't find her girlfriend. There was seemingly nobody in the house. There was one scene where you saw a body in a clothes hamper. Does anybody remember this movie? It used to be on TV all the time.
