Ok, a comic flick I watched last night.Well watched most of it and then said, YUK, cannot finish it...

War in a way I guess.. Two knuckleheads battle to the death with a linen wrapped soldier of a past warrior society. AfikaKorps will trod on same sands.

It's unclear to me, please, what comedic and stale scary movies have to do with the topic, but please...
Mummies were always good for something, long before our years people prepared tea and medicine from the remains, hoping for an eternal life...

"Come and See" (1985)

Du-te și vezi! / Idi i smotri / Иди и смотри (1985)
Link: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x5akrnn

Needs no subtitles, not at all.

Complete German language and English language versions are unknown to me online, maybe someone has a hint ?

Okay, Herr Gorque, this is your next riddle...

The actor, the movie, the year of the production please ?
(The nefarious hand grenade is unfortunately not visible in the photo, but it was always there...) :wink:

Few people used a live hand grenade as a decoration for their own desk...

Herr Gorque was right!

The Assassination of Matteotti (Italy 1973) / Mario Adorf as Benito Mussolini

Source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Assas ... _Matteotti

Herr Mario Adorf excellent as Benito Mussolini, an amazing early performance by Adorf, worth seeing!

Your turn again..! :milwink:
