What movie is this?

JediKooter · 07-12-2010, 02:37 PM

I don't know if there is a thread for specifically asking for "What movie is this?" other than individual threads asking about a movie. That make sense???

Anyway, my intention of this thread is for it to be a one stop shop for asking for help in trying to figure out what movie it is they are looking for.

I'll start it off...

Movie came out in the 70s around the same time Damnation Alley came out. I remember that because I saw both at the same time with my mom as a double feature. It's about this guy who rides his dirt bike and finds a meteorite (or something similar) while out riding and makes necklace out if. Well, something is 'different' about the meteorite and it starts to have an effect on him and he gets a sore on his chest where the necklace touches it. Eventually it turns the guy into a zombie looking dude who goes around killing people in the small town that he lives in.

That's all I can remember and my searches for the name of the movie have been fruitless.

Rage had a motorcycle accident and zombies, but no meteor...

He's not really a zombie, he just looks like one after the transformation. I think I remember a scene where he goes to the doctor and the doctor cuts out the part of his chest where it is changing, but, it grows back or something like that.

Sounds familiar. Something like Laserblast?

Kodos · 07-12-2010, 04:31 PM

I think it's Laserblast. Possibly Laserblast 1978.

I am a member of a secret cult which worships Eddie Deezen.

Also I just watched the MST3K version of it on Netflix.

Bad-example · 07-12-2010, 05:04 PM

I have one. Movie from the late sixties or early seventies about a guy thrown in jail that gets a magic invisibility ring from a dying prisoner. There is a bank heist involved. I remember it being a comedy, bordering on farce.

Any idea?

cartman · 07-12-2010, 05:11 PM

Matchless?

Bad-example · 07-12-2010, 05:15 PM

Nice one, Cartman. Thanks.

The 70s interpretation of Lord of the Rings was pretty far out there.

That must one super duper secret club. More secret than Fight Club. Crap, someone's going to kill me now I bet, right?

Leave it to good 'ol MST3K. That is amazing because I only saw it once and I was about 7 and I could only remember those few details.

What 1970's movie featured a woman getting her throat slit using a broken fish tank? (I know the answer, but figured it'd be a fun one.)

JediKooter · 07-13-2010, 12:02 PM

Almost sounds like something that would in one of the Death Wish movies.
