'Shells'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Still haven't gotten the bunch of houses on the left.
It's not a city or a town.
Ditto the glowing eyes in the dark.
What geographical feature usually surrounds mountains. Where are the glowing eyes?
And P-C, for the mountain-top (what's another word for mountain-top?), look closely at it. What is notable about it?
A-ha! Thanks for the hints. Got the houses and the eyes.
One left to go!
Huh. The orange-roof house/barn is not letting me click on it. I swear a box came up before when I clicked on it before. OK, then what the hell am I missing?
No wait. I already got that one.
But I've clicked all over that damned illustration and am still one short. Can't even imagine where it is. Bah.

The broken tree on the left isn't anything. It lights up for the bug in the glass and the monkeys. (Is there a term for hotspot slopover?)
The mountain in the background.
This was the "not a movie." TV show.
The screaming lady.
The movie title is right there in your description
The dark opening underneath her
Kicked my butt, too, but what color is in that opening?
Hey, P-C, did you get the mountain one?
Nope.
The screaming lady. You're SO CLOSE to the answer. Think simpler. Think verb.
D'oh!
What is notable about it?
Erm? There are three?
I'm still missing the mountain, the cavernous entrance underneath screaming lady, the dude with the lantern, and the guys back to back.
This was the "not a movie." TV show.
Well, I'm dashed.
Kicked my butt, too, but
Err, it looks black to me.
There are three?No there aren't. Check your math. And think of topographical terms.
The space beneath the lady is a particular shade. Think about the theme of this exercise and perhaps about diesel.
The guys back to back flummoxed me until someone upthread (thank you!) mentioned one of the stars. She's someone we here know very, very well.
Erm? There are three?
No. Your count is high. And it's the very top of the mountain. The pinnacle, perhaps. Or even the.....
And count again.
the cavernous entrance underneath screaming lady
It's very, very, very dark in there.
the dude with the lantern,
What is the lantern doing?
and the guys back to back.
They look unhappy with each other. Like there might be some bad blood between them. Some issue left unresolved.
OK, I don't know what I was smoking about the orange roof. It isn't anything. The last clue is that tunnel-looking entrance and Raq's hint helped me get it.
Woo-hoo! Done. What an excellent time-waster. Thank goodness I wasn't planning on working much today.
I'm still missing the mountain
Famous as a TV show first. The same director made the film that one of the M&Ms represented

What colour is the cavernous entrance?
