resolved Relatively Modern movie or tv show Film
What I remember, is a family arriving to a town where everyone acts wierd (typical cult town) the main character is a Doctor with his family. After encountering a sacrifice wood altar at the woods he begins to suspect about the weird behaviours of the people in town. One night they wake him up and drag him to the caves, where monsters/creatures that live and lurk in the dark make him help them gave birth of one of this monsters/creatures that is pregnant, because he is a Doctor. The scene is very graphic and dark. The creatures only communicate with growl sounds, and if I remember well have dark-blue/blue skin. So, it's revealed, the "sacrifices" people of this town made were made to feed this creatures for safety.

Does Blasphemous and Unintentionally Racist Things Keaton and Wyatt Say really exist?
openSuper Robot Wars series where Tifa Adill channels many spirits? Videogame
Hello! I remember seeing this certain Super Robot Wars game or manga where Tiffa Adill gets possessed by many spirits, most of them are male. Also, while being possessed her expressions changes and even her tone of voice as well, albeit more deeper.
Unfortunately, I could not remember which specific Super Robot Wars series/game/manga was that.
Edited by Billie1994openCartoon -- boy uses laser to try to be cool
A cartoon I remember seeing on TV in maybe the late noughties or early New Tens. A boy is using a laser (I can't remember if it's Eye Beams, a Ray Gun, or something else) to zap random things, all the while declaring, "I'm cool!"
The part I remember the most vividly is when he passes by a restaurant or a store or something and zaps away some of the letters on the big sign, so the sign now reads, "CLOSED".
openLive Action Movie Scene Film
A women enters a man's office and the man says shit. The movie is live-action, PG-13, realistic fiction.
openA horror film/anthology segment featuring a brutal ending Film
This might've been a full horror film, an anthology segment, or a short film. The decade is surely 2010s (or possibly 2000s?).
The story centers around some main characters (Adults? Kids?) in a cave, where things go wrong. But what I remember is the horrifying ending, which I will spoiler tag due to its violent nature: There were kids in that cave, either dead or controlled by a sinister force. They exit the cave and reunite with their parents, and all seems well... until they start killing their parents, maybe through cannibalism.

openOld movie about doctor and disabled patients Film
It is an old, live action movie. I remember that at the beginning, a boy is shown to be struggling, with wobbly notes as that differ so much from notes on previous pages. His mom also said that she saw him point at a direction, saying 'Mom, mom' and never spoke again. That boy grows up, becoming a man with a disability. A doctor is the main character (I think), and I also remember the scene where a woman with the same condition as the boy I mentioned does not talk or respond, but when the doctor throws a baseball at her, she catches it. I've seen it once in psychology class in high school, and it now just went into my head. I hope those details will help me, and you, identify it. Those are all the details I can remember.

openThe Greatest Story Never Told comic Print Comic
The Greatest Story Never Told has an entry about a Marvel series that I just can't pin down, mainly cause it's written as vaguely as possible (I tried to find it so I could rewrite the entry to be clearer).
"A six-issue limited series from Marvel Comics told the story of a normal human who was down on his luck and borderline suicidal who gets killed right as an extra-dimensional big bad is opening a rift with a magic artifact intending to unleash the embodiment of Death upon the multiverse. His resulting passage through the gate closes it and bonds him to the weapon making him immortal and causing him to be reborn into another universe anytime he dies as only the weapon can end his life. He eventually foolishly returns the weapon to the Big Bad after getting a promise to leave Earth alone and return him there but upon seeing all the deaths occurring, sacrifices his life and dies a noble hero to end the Big Bad's scheme once and for all. Meanwhile back on earth, you see the heartbreaking disposal of his worldly possessions such as family photos in a trash can while being called a worthless loser."
Any guesses?
openReciprocal Actor Swap
(Theatre isn't an option under Select Medium...)
So, Frankenstein (2011) is famous for it's reciprocal Actor Swap, having Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller alternate the roles of Victor Frankenstein and the Creature. The 2013 Japan production of Mozart L'Opera Rock did the same, with Akinori Nakagawa and Koji Yamamoto alternating as Mozart and Salieri.
My question is, does anyone know of a third example of this — two actors, two roles, alternating? I know that double casting is common in a lot of places, and that there have been actors cast in multiple roles in one production, even playing both Valjean and Javert, but not where the only two actors both did both roles.
Does anyone know of another?
(Incidentally, Nakagawa has also played Victor Frankenstein, in Frankenstein (2014)).

openNazi commander who escaped justice is sent back in time as a prisoner in his own Nazi death camp.
I saw a clip from this TV show (or was it a movie?) where a Nazi who ran a death camp managed to evade all consequences and is now an old man and somehow gets sent back in time to his own death camp as a prisoner and tries to beg for his life with the commander, tell him "I'm you from the future" or something like that. I'm 99% sure it's not a Twilight Zone episode either. I'm trying to remember what it was.
