Guess I came along and killed another trivia thread.
Okay, here's another hint, not a quote.
The technical advisor on this film was Anton Szandor Lavey.

Give it a few days Scott and maybe someone can grab it! We'll have to keep up with the master of horror trivia I'm going to have to start doing research to get that answer! In the meantime, you can add another question if you like! We can do it so two questions are always being asked, and try to balance the easy ones with the harder...

Ok, I have to make the guess now, although I've cheated a little. The funny thing about this is that my parents were actually discussing this movie the other day and how much they hated it. It had William Shatner, Ernest Borgnine, John Travolta and a whole bunch of others, but it was so different from everything they'd done before. I assume Shatner is the one you are talking about Scott. Anton Lavey is of course the founder of the Church of Satan and the writer of the Satanic Bible. I'm sure his involvement in the film makes this horror movie even more 'creepy' The movie: "Devil's Rain", circa 1975, although I've never seen it. Now my curiousity is peaked! My parents are NOT horror fans at all, so they're hating the movie doesn't tell me much... I'm pretty sure I'm right, what do you say, Scott?

That's the one Cobie! People who aren't horror fans will not like it. That simple. But those of us who do like horror and real cheesy 70's horror (the kind I was raised on ) will enjoy it. I've only caught it maybe twice since I saw it at the drive-in (which I had to have been no older than 7) but it is one that I still can remember vividly. Next scene is yours Cobie.

Now that I'm interested, I'm going to have to rent it! Sept-Oct is my favorite season to watch horror anyway, although my horror-addicated roomates from college are no longer close enough to watch our favorites.
Here's two, one being from a cheesy movie that I've expressed my love for before:
-A small silver orb with two spikes and knives flies down the hall and impales the head of one of two guys. A huge arc of blood sprays forth.
-The underwater battle between a zombie and a shark in one of the most gory Zombie movies of all time. I'm pretty sure no other movie has a zombie shark in it. *note- this one is also pretty obscure and was banned in Europe and the UK or some time!

No 1's gotta be Phantasm, or one of its sequels.
No 2 - banned over here, so I've got no idea. Sorry. But Zombies and sharks - sounds right up my tree.
Hic!

You're right on the first one, Numf! It's the first Phantasm I was thinking about, although I guess any of the three sequels could have counted. I love those movies, especially b/c of their cheesiness. And Zombies and Sharks does sound right up your ally

Numf, I believe yours is the John Carpenter remake of "The Thing". Cobie, your zombie/shark movie is "Zombie", one of the best zombie movies around. One of the guys I play poker with has an original theater poster from Zombie hanging in his office. And he won't let me have it.

Same here Scooter. "Zombie" is definately it, and is worth the price of admission alone for that scene IMO.
You're up for two questions!

Okay the first one:
One of the strangers is allowed to participate in the barrel roll during the town's anniversary celebrations. But the townsfolk seal him in the barrel with nails before rolling him down the hill to a bloody end.

The second one:
We see a guy looking at a wedding picture of his wife. Then the scene cuts to a shot of a semi-conscious girl chained to a wall. She has red stuff trailing from her nose and mouth. A transparent tube runs along her leg, showing bits of red fluid slurping down the tube. A motor is running in the background. She passes out. A fellow in a pointy hood and overalls checks her out. He removes the tube from her arm. Cut to a shot of pigeon in a coop.

I would think the first one is easy, the second one not so much. Do you just need more time or another hint?

I don't know about anyone else but I need a hint. I used to think I had a good knowledge of horror films but I see I've really met the masters here...

The first movie begins with a car full of young people, three couples, being diverted to a small, Southern town. They are eventually made the guests of honor at a Confederate centennial celebration.
I'll have to think on the second movie to come up with a good scene.

Scott, is the first one "Two Thousand Maniacs"?
I saw that about three years ago, and I remember a specific bloody barrel role sequence in it.

Yep, the first one is Two Thousand Maniacs. The first time we saw it my mom would make us hide our eyes when the bad stuff happened. Lot of good it did. Been racking my brain for another scene for the second one. This is the best I could come up with. There is a ring at the door (I seem to remember it being a motorhome but it could have been a trailer) and when a woman answers the door she finds the family dog hanging from the porch, drained of blood.

That's not it Dr.
This movie came out in the mid 60's but was a big hit at the drive ins during the early 70's. There was a narrator at the beginning who sounded like James Mason (though it wasn't).

I have no idea, Scooter. Perhaps you horrorphiles will enjoy this link: http://www.brian-oshaughnessy.com/horror_history.html It certainly should give you a spectrum of titles to choose trivia from and the intro, alone, is worth a read.

Dang. The site is blocked from work because of 'nudity'. Now I really have to see it. One last hint on the second movie. The baddies were supposedly Druids and they were doing what they did because of their Queen. I can't tell you want it was because that would give the movie title away.

Here's mine:
A Classic Horror Movie monster ripping off someone's fake arm out of the socket, after really doing it to him many years earlier.
This is probably an easy one, but in case you're not sure, this movie features at least three classic horror actors.
