What is this movie???

[thehellyousay]

Circa '85 I was sleeping over at a friends house who had a tv and cable in their room. We were flipping back and forth between the movie channels and Turkey TV on Nickelodeon.

One of the movies had a scene that has stuck with me, but I can't seem to figure it out. Hell, I don't even know if it's technically horror and I have very little to go on. What I remember is a night scene with a man raping(?) a woman. The man is attacked by dogs. From what I think I remember is a it's in the woods near a bus. I believe the woman makes her way to the bus for shelter.

I know it's not much to go on and I've come up empty. I thought it may have been White Dog based upon a synopsis, but no dice.

Any thoughts?

No bus, but could be Humongous?

[thehellyousay]

I don't think I've seen that, so I'll throw it on the watchlist to see if it's the one. Thanks for the suggestion!

Maybe, The Final Terror?

Maybe After Midnight... That has a segment with girls and dogs.

[thehellyousay]

I had just seen the poster for The Final Terror last night. I'll try to find that one too.

I've seen After Midnight and it's not the one... sadly. At the latest, the movie I'm seeking would have to be 1986 or before.

Thanks for the suggestions!

The Pack?

That was my first guess too. Except for the bus part, it fits perfectly.

Not a horror film but a guy is savaged to death by dogs near a bus in the drama THE GREAT SANTINI.

There's a bus but no dogs in The Final Terror.

[thehellyousay]

Thanks for the info guys, I'll move Humongous up on the list and add The Great Santini.

Maybrick, I've always thought it could be the Pack, but found no mention of the type of scene I saw. I guess I'll move it up anyway just to make sure.

Walking Dude, Thanks for that. I still want to see The Final Terror, but I'll make it less of a priority.

Thanks again, everyone!

Was thinking that movie too. But haven't seen it in a long time.

It came out 1977 , and it has a yellow truck in the movie. It's not a bus, but could kinda look like that because it was one of those extended cab truck sorta thing. So maybe that's what you saw.

But I don't remember any rape in that movie.

And there was a scene with a woman taking cover in a yellow VW while the dogs were attacking around the car. That seen was in daylight, not at night.


But Humongous (1982) does have a rape scene, but absolutely no bus.

In that film the woman is attacked by the man who chases her into the woods then rapes her. Her own dog (pretty sure it was specifically a German Shep)comes to save her and mauls the guy. It wasn't a bunch of dogs. Then she kills the guy off by bashing him in the head with a large rock or something. This all happens right in the beginning of the movie, before even the credits.

So if that's what you saw, then that's your movie thehellyousay.

I've got Humongous on the way, so I'll know soon enough if that's the one. I could be just mixing up the bus thing with something else that night (or just remembering wrong).

Glad to hear the scene in Humongous is at the beginning!

I'll post back if it's the one.

Thanks again!

There is a pack of dogs (caged), but you are correct in saying that the post rape scene dog mauling is done by a single Shepherd.

I know Humongous cops a lot of flack, but that scene is really well done, effects and dog training wise.

Yes that's right, I forgot about the caged dogs(the one she was near at the party). Then they kept cutting back to cage of dogs barking or something. Good pick up.
