Help with the names of 2 movies

****in' A, man. I got a rash, man
I remember watching an asian gangster movie years ago and some guy get shot in the head but he doesn't die and the bullet can't be removed. This turns him into a complete nut job.

The other movie is set in the future and the government makes everybody of an average intelligence so they are easily controlled and manipulated. The main character in the movie (Henry I think) is a really intelligent guy who gets a job in the government and ends up committing suicide on TV.

Sorry if it's a bit vague.......it's been years

"Harrison Bergeron" (1995) which premiered on the cable network Showtime. It also goes by the name "Kurt Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron" as it is kinda loosely based on one of his short stories. It stars Sean Astin, Eugene Levy, Howie Mandel and Christopher Plummer.

That's the one

What do you think of this movie?

From what I remember this movie was very good. Had a nice message about media manipulation and mind control.

Any luck with the other movie?

Oh, and that's John Woo's Bullet in the Head (1990). Yes, the answer was just that obvious.

LOL I feel dumb now

Thanks a lot anyways



For that matter, someone help me with this one, kids create a psycho carnivale? All I remember about it, other than it scaring the crap out of me



k i'm new to the site and i can't make a thread because i need 25 posts
but anyways
i'm trying to remember a movie's name but i can't
it came out in theaters maybe a year ago or so
it's about aliens that take the form of attractive ladies, then they seduce men and kill them... does anyone remember the name of this movie?



In Soviet America, you sue MPAA!
Could be a few things, but given the "year ago or so" my guess is either Species 3 or Decoys.


Edit, scratch that because you said it came out theatrically. In that case, Species 2?
