Youtube never ceases to amaze me on all the creepy things you can upload and find there during work...

There's a film I've been trying to put a name to for ages and no amount of Googling has so far turned it up.
All I really remember is that it's a cheep 70's or 80's Sci-fi horror that involved aliens throwing living frisbies at people that latch on to their heads and eat their brains...now you know the kind of stuff that I watched as a child. I think I was 7 when I saw Robocop so was desensitised at a young age. I blame my older brothers as my earliest movie experience was being made to watch Ghostbusters on video. That bit at the beginning with the library ghost scared the shit out me and I had nightmares about terror dogs for weeks...but then I was only 3 at the time.

OK it's official, Google hates me. First the Grissom's bridge thing, now this. I think I only saw like the last 30 mins of it once way back in the 80's but I just had a quick look at some clips on youtube and it certainly looks like the same flick. Note for future reference: nobody hire me as a researcher - I suck!
[EDIT] Defiantly the same movie, I totally remember this bit! I know it looks crap, but to a five year old, it was the most disgusting thing I'd seen. Of course my standards are different now as I have since seen Showgirls.

I am a master googler. I can find practically anything on the internet given enough time and a full cup of coffee.

If/when I have kids one day, they will not be exposed to Barney and the Teletubbies and Sesame Street. No, they'll get the same quality programming my dad exposed me to from the age of nil onwards: Ghostbusters, The Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, all the Robocop movies, and documentaries on TV about human reproduction. My reading material was his old college textbooks (I remember reading about the Tunguska event when I was 4 or so) and my music was Beatles and Monkees all the way.
No wonder I'm so damn cool.

Strangely enough, one of the earliest "scary!" memories I have are not of any sort of horror movie, but... wait for it... Cliff Richard.
Yes. Cliff Richard and the Young Ones. Mostly for Vyvyan screaming his head off, but the way the guys shout "LIVING DOOOLLL" still stirs memories of terror somewhere deep down.

For the longest time, Edward Scissor Hands scared the crap out of me. I used to think he was hiding under my bed. Scared me right to sleep, that did.

I remember this one part of a movie whose name I cannot remember. The scene was of a large tunnel in what I believe was a space station. A group of people and a weird robot thing were running across a catwalk while a huge fireball was rolling toward them down the tunnel. Another scene I remember was of a guy getting shot with some gun that blew a hole through his middle. And he reached in and touched his innards before he keeled over. That really grossed me out back when I was like 5.
