    6- DS, the kids may not be dancing, but playing...

    I got 40 with the help of one of my co-workers. I'm baffled by the lady with the two babies and the one with the barrel of water...

    I'm on 37 at mo. A few that I BET are really easy, but I just can't nail.... the Baby on its back clutching at what appear to be leaves.... the 3 kids dancing... the basket guy... death in the graveyard... the stairs... and the two guys back to back on the stairs... and the 2 sweetcorn guys... argh!

    I don't think I've actually found 50 clues yet either :p

    They're a particular kind of leaf, Barmy - a culinary herb, in fact.

    I'm up to 34. What's up with the planets? I've tried "Clash of the Titans" and "When Worlds Collide," both unsuccessfully... Both fish are leaving me blank, and the candle. I'm still blank (pun not intended) on the men with the O's. Other than that I think I'm most stuck on the same ones that have been mentioned before.

    I'm up to 41. The bottom right corner is hard. I've no clue about the guy with the baskets, the chained guy, the pencil guy, the black hole and the golden thing with shovels. Let's see what else; the two guys on the stair, the howling wolves, and Mars and Jupiter.

    I don't know the woman with the two 'kids' either, but if you ask me, one looks more like a monkey.


    Barmy, that aren't two corn guys, since they got all kinds of baby corn with them. And look at Colthrun's hint (thanks, didn't have that one either) for the three dancing kids.

    Rally, one fish is a ... and the other isn't a fish, it's more like a different sort of creature. And do you mean the candle in the shape of a house? (That's also already a hint). The 'O'-men require a bit of creative thinking :)

    Thanks for the tips.

    You'll kick yourselves with the WORLDS clue :p

    If he's strapped up in a straight jacket, what is he? ;)
    What's usually on the end of a pencil?
    You've just answered the wolfs one yourself ;)

    Thanks Barmy, I'm up to 43. I got the planets and the pencil guy (never even heard of that last movie; I admit it, I used IMDB).

    Crazy, insane in the brain, completely bonkers... I guess I have to give that some more thought. Same goes for the wolves.

    :doh:

    Payback - those aren't shovels on the golden thing, and their position is significant. Get away from shovels, and what does the whole thing look like?

    I'm stuck on 25.

    And DR, that basket one is not a 'new' movie - it's a crappy remake of a classic older movie.

    I can't get the little fish in the pond.

    I didn't know it was a remake. Hmm. I actually originally thought that one was Basket Case.

    As for the one you can't get: It's not a fish, and think of other names for a murky pond.

    The original is a complete classic.

    Hmm, I can only come up with "An Eel in a Bog"?

    Thanks Rally. After your hint, I saw it immediately. 44!

    DR, which ones are you missing?

    What's another name for a knife? And no, it's not Dagger!

    Anyone got the Death guy yet? Or the collection of dark houses next to the birds?

    What's a collection of houses called? :p

    I admit the mommy with the kids I would not have got had I not done the 6 coins one just before. They're the same type of hint...

    Oh, God. I tried 'Village of the damned' and all kinds of combinations without realising I'd put the right answer in each time...

    I'm on 49 now, just missing Death :p

    @ Mes

    I'm missing the dark cavern in the bottom right, and the damn woman with a baby dangling her other kid. They're both driving me batsh*t. :mad:

    @ Vuk - that didn't help at all. :skeptic:

    @ Barmy - this one is tough, and one of the less obvious of the bunch. As was hinted to me before, think Stephen King...

    Got it. Completed!

    I must add, with the help of a mate here. He gave me the answers for the stairs, the 2 guys back to back (I should have got that one!) and the 'spy' in the window (bloody lame answer if you ask me).

    The hardest one I found was the baby one, simply because I'd never heard of the movie before, but I nailed it after going through a few herbs :lol: .

    31.

    I have started a new tactic. I am thinking of famous 'dark movies' and then trying to find the clues that fit. I have found two more that way.

    Still can't get any of the ones involving stairs.
