Freddy est un film de Robert Thomas sorti en 1978.

Synopsis

Parce qu'il a d'énormes difficultés d'argent et parce qu'il ne peut s'offrir la publicité nécessaire à la bonne marche de son cirque, le directeur-clown Freddy a recours, pour la énième fois, à la baronne de Berg, sa "bienfaitrice", qui pratique des taux d'intérêt usuraires. Ce n'est pas de gaîté de cœur que Freddy accepte de revoir celle qui ne consent à lui prêter que parce qu'elle est follement éprise de lui. Mais, cette fois, malgré ses problèmes, Freddy refuse les conditions proposées. Or la baronne est assassinée et la police a tôt fait de le soupçonner. Freddy, qui n'est pour rien dans cette affaire, imagine pourtant un stratagème propre à redonner un nouvel essor à son entreprise. Grâce au complaisant inspecteur Paulus, il bénéficie donc d'une arrestation mouvementée et son procès est largement retransmis par les médias. Le cirque ne désemplit bientôt plus et quand Freddy est acquitté, après le témoignage d'Eva, la nièce de la baronne, il peut reprendre sa place dans l'euphorie générale. C'est alors qu'apparaît une jeune femme, Margot, qui prétend être la meurtrière. Elle exerce aussitôt un chantage sur Freddy, lequel, après avoir mené sa propre enquête, découvre qu'elle lui a menti en même temps qu'il confond Eva, la véritable criminelle.

By the year 2056, an epidemic of organ failures has devastated the planet. The megacorporation GeneCo provides organ transplants on a payment plan. Clients who default on payments are hunted down by Repo Men: skilled assassins contracted by GeneCo to repossess organs, usually killing the clients in the process. The CEO of GeneCo, Rottissimo "Rotti" Largo (a listed in a newspaper article about his kids), discovers he is terminally ill. Rotti's three children, Luigi Largo, Pavi Largo, and Amber Sweet, who changed her last name as a stage stunt to replace a popular singer she's jealous of, bicker over who will inherit GeneCo. Rotti believes none of his children are worthy heirs, as they consistently embarrass him with their robust attitudes, and instead plans to pass on his fortune to Shilo, the daughter of his ex-fiance Marni.

Scooby-Doo and the gang travel to Atlantic City, where Fred enthusiastically takes them to see The Brancusi Circus. They arrive to find that the circus does not open until tomorrow, but decide to look around when they notice that the front door is unlocked. Whilst searching, they meet a man who is pursuing a werewolf that has intruded into the circus. The werewolf attacks the gang, but is eventually scared off by Velma, using a spotlight. The man thanks the gang and introduces himself as Marius Brancusi, the ringleader. Marius inherited the circus from his uncle last year and has been working to modernize it. He informs the gang that the werewolf they had encountered has been shadowing the circus for a few months, has scared off many of his artists, and has stolen jewelry wherever they are. He even suspects that the werewolf might be one of his own artists. Velma notices that this incident alludes to a case during the 18th century, in Ingolstadt, where a werewolf named Hans collected a combination of jewels which enabled him to change into a werewolf at any time. After the gang tells Marius that they solve mysteries, Marius hires them to go undercover as circus performers.

Flik, an individualist and would-be inventor, lives in a colony of ants in the middle of a dried creek. They are led by Princess Atta and her mother, the Queen. The colony is oppressed by a gang of marauding grasshoppers, led by Hopper, that arrive every season demanding food from the ants. One day, when the annual offering is accidentally knocked into a stream by Flik's latest invention, a grain-harvesting device, the grasshoppers demand twice as much food as compensation. The ants trick Flik into accepting his plan to recruit "warrior bugs" to fight off the grasshoppers. While Flik actually believes in the plan, the other ants see it as an opportunity to get rid of Flik and save themselves trouble.
