O.K. - I know I was really young when I saw it.

All I can remember was a family sitting around maybe a dinner table or in a living room.

Kids, parents.

And these guys maybe dressed in black broke in and shot the entire family up with machine guns.

Blood on the walls and such.

But when the guys escaped, they all drove off on dirt bikes or motorcycles and maybe did a jump off the family's front yard.

I'm guessing around 84-86?

Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe link to the scene if you find it.

Hmm...I'm guessing it doesn't star the usual suspects like Charles Bronson. I don't think any Stallone or Arnie movies were quite like that, same for Kurt Russell, and it seems too soon for JCVD or Steven Seagal. Was this sort of a B-movie or sorts? Something that would get a premiere on HBO "Where the action is" nights that weren't for bigger movies?

It may have.

I remember that scene pretty well.

I want to say the guns may have had silencers on them.

Kinda wish I could figure it out.

maybe you accidentally got caught in a time flux and saw The Punisher

Sounds like a mob movie.

The Chinese tend to use dirt bikes in such films.

Need more info.

That's all I have.

The scene is fading from my memory and I don't want to lose it. Been wanting to ask this for several years.

I gotta say this sounds exactly like E.T.

or perhaps Gremlins?
