What movie is this?

Posted by HopeNo3051

I have a distinct memory as a kid in the mid to late 90s of being in a video store and a movie playing on the screens that I definitely was not supposed to be watching. From what I remember, there’s a 90s aesthetic (so was prob a new release at the time) and the scene was someone examining some goo in a lab (something like that??) the scene felt very dark and foreboding, like the goo was deadly… I’m not sure if that is enough to go off of!

You spent more time explaining the memory of you watching the scene instead of the scene itself. Was it a man or woman, was there colors you remember? Help us help you

A man in a lab, looking at some goo….i think in his hand. There’s another person there, I think a woman, standing behind him. The scene is very dark, like the power went out.

You sure used a lot of words to describe nothing. That being said, the movie you are looking for is Ghostbusters

Re-animator? Were there zombies? It could be anything, goo was a real popular thing in the 90s

Your description kinda sucks, but for some reason I thought of *Darkman*, and that’s a real guess not a joke. Might be a scene when he’s messing with his artificial skin formula.

that sounds like it could be "The Blob" from 1988 or even "The X-Files" movie from 1998. both have that dark lab vibe and intense goo moments. might be worth checking those out!

I have a feeling it could be X-Files…. I will investigate!

Sounds like it could be The Blob remake from 1988 or maybe Mimic from 1997. Mimic had that dark lab feel with something dangerous being studied. If the goo was more alien looking, maybe Species from 1995. Any of those ring a bell?

not saying ignore it, just don’t spiral. handle what you can, let the rest chill.

That sounds so familiar, what a great memory! My first thought was Species, it definitely has that late 90s vibe with scary alien stuff being examined in labs. Hope you find the movie, good luck!
