I have 2 such films and only 2. I've been looking for them for years ever since I saw them each on TV forever ago. Yes yes, these aren't the best films ever but I liked them back when I saw them.
The first is known as Dad Savage and stars Patrick Stewart, Kevin McKidd and Marc Warren
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118915/I'm at my wits end. I've never been able to get more then 10% in a download for this film and I've been trying for years.
The second film is Nightbreaker. It stars Martin Sheen, Emilio Estevez and Joe Pantoliano.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097977/This one always gets stuck at 95.6% with me. I don't know what to do since I don't know where to look.
Any of you ever had this problem?
Nightbreaker is called Advance to Ground Zero in the UK and costs £3.69. I found this out by typing Nightbreaker into the search bar on Amazon.co.uk.

Good to know... except there are no torrents for that either and I don't live in the UK and currently don't have access to online banking

There's a film I can't find but it's because I can't remember the name of it. It was an old black and white Italian film (maybe 50s/60s), it started out on a cliff side/ boat, there was a group of friends but one of them gets lost, I think it was the main characters sister. They search for her but can't find and eventually leave, and then the main character ( a female) begins an affair with the man her sister went on the trip with. The female lead was absolutely stunning.
Any takers? Been annoying the strawberry float out of me since I seen it, it was quite good but I've never heard a word about it since.

You can buy them on DVD from play.com, they cost about 3 quid each. Although they use to have a far larger collection in nicer boxes.

Freebie and the Bean, a '70's cop film with the greatest car chase ever filmed.
It's only on DVD in the US.

Hey, I'm trying to remember the name of some film I saw forever ago. It was kind of like "Walking Tall" if you've ever seen that movie. Some guy returns to his old town to find the woman he loved in the past engaged to some Mr perfect type guy who was rich and powerful. Later it is revealed though that the guy is not perfect but actually a a mob boss running the town. If I recall, the hero teams up with some black guy to fight the criminal. Any idea what the film was called?

It is Walking Tall. It has Dwayne Johnson (aka The Rock) and Johnny Knoxville in it. Was on TV the other day.

No, the film I'm thinking of is much lamer. It's like a fail version of Walking Tall. No not the 70's version of the movie either. I think Ben Afrlek Might have been the bad guy actually. Or someone who looked a bit like him.

So I'm trying to remember the name of 3 films but for the life of me just can't.
One is about 2 british teenagers who survive some sort of accident that kills their entire class. They decide life is short so they have to do everything they can before they die. They use drugs with dirty needles. They hit a police officer. In the end they want to kill a cow but don't have the nerve to do it. That's all I remember about this film.
The other was some epic retarded film where in the end, everybody has sex in a public place (like on the roof of a kiosk) before they all get shot by some bad people (or was it police). I can't remember what the film was called, just that it was truly idiotic.

Are you sure these aren't just weird porns you've watched in the past and mistaken for normal films?

L'Avventura and the actress is Monica Vitti.

Sounds like Cecil B. DeMented.

It sounds very different but could it be Domestic Disturbance (the logic being that Vince Vaughn looks a little like Ben Affleck)?
