Actually, there are two movies that I only remember very vaguely. I only saw parts of each one, both when I was pretty young, and I think one or both of them is very obscure.
One was a horror film shot in black and white. Seemed kind of artsy. I don't even know if it was a short film, part of an anthology, or a feature. I saw it on cable. I don't remember there being any dialogue. There was this woman alone in a house with a ventriloquist dummy. The dummy had come to life--you never saw it walking around, but I think there were POV shots, and it kept turning up in different parts of the house. The woman, terrified, is trying to hide from it. She gets down on the floor and peers through the crack under a door, and the dummy is lying on its side, looking in at her. This must sound utterly ridiculous, but what little I saw of this film scared the living crap out of me.
The other film started, I believe, with a woman in the obstetrics ward giving birth to a really hairy baby. That's all I saw. But, once again, disturbed the hell out of me.
I'd be very much interested in tracking either of these down, but have no idea what they were. Do you?
