if you wanted to clear ALL movies in a level, you could just do a for-in loop do a removeMovieClip() on all the movieclips. If you're trying to keep some of the clips, one thing you could do is add an "id" (or some other identifier) property, then wehy you do a for-in loop you could test for that particular id.
