It's quite an old one, I have vague memories of it. A bunch of friends discover a load of money and they all end up killing each other for it. It's set in a house for most of it.

I hope that's enough to go off.
 
Lily Allen's dad plays Hugo in the film. He's naked at one point and you see his willy.
 
I'm hijacking this thread because I am also trying to think of a film.

I saw it on tv ages ago when I was really young, maybe about 12-15 years ago. I don't remember too much about it but it scared the clean shit out of me. I think it was about this creepy ass family (like the addam's family but properly murderous) and I think the neighbours were trying to figure out if they were psychos or just a bit weird. The one scene I remember was cops I think opening the boot of a car that belonged to the family and it being filled with skulls.

As I say it scared the shit out of me so I assume it was a horror film. Although it could have been a black comedy or something that I was too young to understand.

Disclaimer: This is a very old and vague memory so it's entirely possible this film never existed and I made it all up.
 
Scrumpet, you might be thinking of The 'Burbs starring a younger Tom Hanks.
 
It is definitely the 'Burbs. The simply, life affirming parable about how if you think your neighbours are weird and judge them instantly for being different, you're almost certainly right, and they're murderous cannibals.

It is definitely The 'Burbs, and it is the greatest movie ever made.
 
I also have a film, it's one where a kid is on a bed and there was a clown under the bed, he's shit scared and leans over to look under the bed and there's the clown and it drags him off into some other world and his parents can't find him.

What is it?

I see what you might have done there.
 
Pennywise didn't show up under anyone's bed. Sewers, basement, showers, more sewers, library, fridge, spooky house, road, restaurant, sewer, asylum, cave......I think that's it.

It is actually Poltergeist

:lol:

It definitely wasn't that. From that I remember he was on the bed, his parents were downstairs and he leant under the bed to look and got dragged under. He screamed and his parents ran upstairs but he wasn't there anymore. It dragged him off somewhere in what I think was some alternate world type thing and I can't remember the scene because it's fuzzy in my head I watched it as a kid.
