Alright,
I have wrestled with this one for years and years and I know there is no hope of ever identifying this film. When I was very young (somewhere between 4 and 8 so that would be between 76 and 80...ish) I was at the drive in with my mother and father. I suspect I was supposed to be asleep because this wasn't a child's movie at all. Everything is awash in that sepia-toned haze you get when you try to recall childhood memories so I imagine even if I am describing this movie semi-accurately I have either added something or forgotten something important but here goes.
I recall a scene where a woman is in bed. For some reason the room seems large in my mind and maybe there were even other beds in the room. I remember the sheets being torn from her and I remember her looking up into the eyes of some mannequin thing that might have been red with false eyes and other features. I do not recall anything happening to the woman, but I could be blocking all of that out due to my childhood brain protecting me from a horror. The next thing I recall is the lifeless figure either gliding or rolling away. I remember it was a pivotal moment in the film and I keep thinking that most of this lifeless thing was red. I specifically remember the fact that the thing glided away and that frigged me up good.
I realize how vague I am being here and I probably haven't given you enough information to solve this riddle, but it is killing me over the last few years that I can't identify it. Maybe if I can something will happen in me, like I might open a door I don't want to or fix a mental problem I have that I'm not aware of but I got to know.
...This madness has gone on long enough!
I thank you in advance,
Chris
