Do *you* consider yourself a horror movie expert? Then I am in desperate need of your help! Rather, a friend of mine is. Many years ago he asked me if I could figure out this horror movie he saw when he was a kid. When I was in college, I'd gone through the literal entire horror movie section at EVERY video rental store in the area, from Blockbuster to Ken's World of Video and everything in between. But not even *I* could figure out the name of the movie.
So I searched around online. Nothing. I asked the one person I knew (at the time, at least) who knew more about horror movies than I did (you may remember the Drudgeon, one of my fellow reviewers at Forced Viewing, RIP)(the website, not my friend, who is still alive, I assure you), and he couldn't figure it out, either.
I forgot about it for a while, and then it came back to me a few years back. I tried again, hoping there would be more internet for Google to scour, but no dice. I was so desperate I asked ChatGPT about it. That fuckin' idiot couldn't figure it out, naturally, so I gave up again.
Last week I slapped my forehead. I'm such a silly goose. I have a metric shit-ton of author friends, and almost all of them write horror. Many of them are, indeed, horror movie experts. And I've accumulated a handful of horror movie reviewer friends, too, so what the hell? Why not give this a shot?
So thank you all for joining me tonight. I appreciate you all, and I hope you can help me out. Because if this fails, I only have one shot left. It's a real Hail Mary, so I'm hoping at least one of you knows this flick. I'm going to let my friend take over from here:
I'd say the year I watched it was probably about 1991-1994'ish so it at least wouldn't be anything newer than that.
There was a group of teenagers and they were in some kind of broken down beat up either big house or mansion (likely a house). It was a mix of guys and girls but the personalities didn't stand out to me so I can't identify any characteristics.
There was the main bad guy / entity / demon / ghost thing that had long black hair and a melted like face somewhat that looked like Lemmy. He kept asking everyone who they were / what their name was before he'd kill them. When he got to one of the kids and the kid said his name, Lemmy said something like "I only came back, to protect you my boy".
I remember one guy and girl found a room with an old bunk bed that they decided to have sex in. I think I remember the girl being apprehensive about it and the guy just being like whatever about it. Lemmy was shown underneath on the bottom bunk either standing (tall bed) or kneeling with a sword in his hand overhead sticking straight up that he was about to thrust through before the movie cut to black with him seemingly smiling.
It could have been an 80's movie or very early 90's movie.
Any ideas? Thoughts? Guesses? I'll take anything and everything you've got. Comment below or email me or message me on Facebook or let me know however you know me. I'll forward it all to him, and I hope we get lucky. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
