Question 1 of 5
1. My favorite film of all time is categorized as a horror. The black and white flick was released in 1960. Its (very) famous director insisted that theaters not allow viewers in to see the film at any time except if they were there for the beginning. Candy corn, a bird fetish and a budget of $800,000 made up this remarkable film. It is based on a popular Robert Bloch novel. Which film is it?

Answer: (one word)
Question 2 of 5
2. The late 1930s was when this next gem was released. Nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, it only won two, one of them being Best Song. (You all have heard this song plenty of times.) MGM agreed to use the tagline 'The Greatest Picture in the History of Entertainment'. The film's young star went on to work in numerous movies and record several albums. Which film is it? Hint


Question 3 of 5
3. This next film is one of the largest grossing films of all time. With the budget set at $200 million and a runtime of over three hours, the film also has one of the biggest cast lists ever. The movie includes a handsome young actor, a large indoor tank and a number of special effects. Which film is it? Hint


Question 4 of 5
4. This next film was released in 2000. The autobiographical movie is filled with tunes and had a music budget of $3.5 million. The director went on to have (major) success with a flavor up in the air. The movie didn't even have a title for the longest time. Which film is it? Hint


Question 5 of 5
5. This mid 80s film includes a pack of actors that each went on to have major success. They only met once, but it changed their lives forever and brought the director success as well. The group hangs out in an educational facility in 60062. Which film is it?
