There is a movie, horror, thriller, that has a scene, or more, or individual, or group of people wearing these masks, I only can recall how it scared sh.t out of me, any ideas?
Also, probably another movie, thriller, horror, where person (priest?) has visions of something (lightning, sharp object) killing someone (him?) and these visions I think get more real over time, object closer and then eventually someone is killed/electrified/pierced?
@kelt,
The first film is tricky, during plagues they would wear strange masks that had sweet smelling stuff in it because they thought bad smells caused disease. Consequently, there's a lot of that in films about medieval plagues.
The second one may be the Omen. David Warner's character is a photographer and his photographs show how people will die, particularly the priest played by Patrick Troughton, (the best ever Doctor Who,) and himself. David Warner is decapitated, Patrick Troughton dies as below.
Yes, it is omen, thank you
first movie wasn't about plague for sure, it was some thriller/horror, that just had a scene with people (or individual) dressed in that mask. Movie was something similar to Witcherman, The Village I think...
@kelt,
I saw a weird film that appeared to be set in colonial America but it turned out it was an isolated community in the middle of a wood with all sorts of legal protection.
Just googled and found this.

@izzythepush,
Yeah, know the movie and saw it, it's not that... But something similar I believe
@kelt,
Are you sure it's a film? One of the Christopher Ecclestone Doctor Whos had a story with gas mask kids.
There's also other mythological creatures of similar appearance like Springheeled Jack.
@kelt,
That pring heeled Jack i probably where KISS got their shitty dresses.
@kelt,
I'll have a think. It's the sort of thing that turns up after a sleep or something like that.
Had another look, three films came up, one is Kubrik's
Eyes wide Shut, but that might be a long shot. The two others are.
The Plague Doctor.

The Sickhouse.

@izzythepush,
forever Amber had scene or two with the "yarrow beaks"
@izzythepush,
Have looked into all these movies before I asked here, it was none of those unfortunately... This is driving me crazy...
@kelt,
When did you see it? Was it in black and white or colour?
Some idea of time might help to narrow it down.
I looked at some Hammer films but this is the closest I got.
This one has masked figures at the end.
