I need help with a couple movies, didn't know if it would be better to make a new thread or hijack an old one, I wish we had a sticky or something, none of the forums I go on do but...
2 movies I remember watching as a kid, that would put them in mid to late 80's to early 90's when I saw them on TV.
FOUND THIS, Called The Witches 1990, watched the trailer and it's a
ed up movie alright, just as I remember and it's a kids film to boot!
First one might be easier, I remember there were these witches and these kids, all I remember is if the kids got hit with a spell or something they would burp and shrink down and become rats or something similiar, they might have been able to talk, live action movie, thought it took place in a harry potter school setting but I could be wrong, might be a disney thing.
Second one is probably more obscure. I think it might have been a good and bad alien duking it out, live action as well. I only remember two scenes and I think they are from the same film. The first has a guy driving a forklift or something similiar, he's black with sunglasses and a walkman and he's really into the music. This alien or whatever grabs him and I thought he used these filaments to suck his blood or something. The other scene had the alien stabbing a white guy in a suit with a knife and pulling out this round glob from his stomach, I don't know if it was an alien to, I thought it was grey and not human anatomy. I realize how messed up that all sounds but I know I saw it. Also I think the aliens looked human but may have had minor alien features.
I also need help remembering a short story. Might be Ray Bradbury, Issac Asimov, or Robert A Heinlein since I have read a lot of their stories over the years.
I believe this is called That Woman On The Lawn by Ray Bradbury, couldn't find it online but I'm pretty sure that's it. It's about a man who is sleeping in his house one night. He hears crying and goes outside to find a young woman in his backyard maybe with a picture of someone who she loved but didn't reciprocate. The end revealed that it was his mother when she was younger and someone he was experiencing this, and he reassures her she will meet someone soon (his father).
Any help would be appreciated!
