Can you think of any films which contain clips from other films, for example Pulp Fiction in Hostel or Halloween in Scream. I'm thinking of researching this for my dissertation next term and want to watch as many examples as possible. Thanks!!

I think a lot of christmas/holiday movies have "it's a wonderful life in them" pretty sure home alone did and also one or more of the national lampoon vacation movies have.

Rambo III (I think, or maybe II) in Gremlins II.

Off the top of my head...

Evil Dead in Donnie Darko
The Thing (original) in Halloween (did you see what Mr Carpenter did there, did ya, did ya?)
The Quiet Man in E.T.
Frankenstein in Gods & Monsters (or was it Bride Of Frankenstein... can't remember right now)
Bride Of Frankenstein in Bride Of Chucky
Saturday Night Fever in Short Circuit
Spaceballs in Spaceballs... ok, that ones a stretching it a bit.

Thats all I can think of right now.
