    Movie title
    I am looking for an old movie that I saw several years ago about a man making a deal with the devil to become rich, He had to go 7 years without a shower or shave and would always have money in his pocket. If he could go 7 years, he would than become rich.

    The movie is called Bearskin. It's from a series of short films based on fairy tales by the Grimm brothers.

    I am also looking for the titles of a couple of other movies. One was thriller about this lady that gets this doll as a gift I think. They tell her that the doll will come to life if this chain falls off, she gets mad and slams the doll on the coffee table and the chain falls off and it comes to life and starts killing. And the other one is I think a si/fi movie of time standing still, It's hard to explain this one, Everyone in this town looks like they are not moving, but when this guy looks every little while he can see that they have moved, like in very slow motion. I can't really remember what happens in the movie except it seemed like it was kind of scary. I think the town was being invaded by something.

    I found the movie you bearskin, but it doesn't sound like the movie I was thinking of. In the movie the first couple of years are easy for him to go without a shower and shave, but as his hair grows people don't want anything to do with him. Two sisters fall in love with him when he's still good looking but when he comes back a few years later one of them wants nothing to do with him. One of the sisters kills herself when she finds out who it is after he is able to shave. I remember the devil said that he still wins, because he got two souls for the price of one.

    Amazon.com: Bearskin (From The Brothers Grimm) [VHS]: Tom Davenport, Richard Bauer, Robert Rauchenberg: Video

    Bearskin seems like it's the one you were talking about.

    The first movie sounds like it's from Trilogy of Terror (1975) (TV)
