Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. A young family and their dog are living in a new housing estate. There are paranormal happenings in the house. What movie is this?

Answer: Poltergeist

"Poltergeist" is one of the first horror movies I saw in a cinema with surround sound and I got really caught up in the family's lifelike horror, when their youngest daughter was kidnapped by ghosts. The family just seemed to do all the most intelligent things to get their daughter back.
2. This movie was based on fact. It involved a young mother with an older son and two younger daughters. An unseen presence violently attacked the mother. Which movie is this?

Answer: The Entity

"The Entity" was based on the true story of Doris Bither who was abused by her parents and had several abusive relationships with men. The feelings in the house were extremely negative and even the oldest son harboured dark and resentful feelings towards his mother.

The parapsychologists who looked into the phenomena, think that the paranormal activities were caused by this negative upbringing.
3. A young novelist returned to his home town. He noticed strange behaviour in the town's people. There was an eerie big old house. Which film is this?

Answer: Salem's Lot

"Salem's Lot" was the most scary and atmospheric movie I had ever watched at the time. The creepy antiques shop owner had a mysterious missing partner who turned out to be a hideous vampire. Written by the master Stephen King, this film is truly one of the great horror stories.
4. This movie was a supernatural detective story. A journalist's niece had died. The journalist investigated her niece's death and unearthed an incredibly scary story. Which movie is this?

Answer: The Ring

"The Ring" is probably the scariest film I've ever seen. As the journalist delved into the newspaper archives to find out what was going on, you find yourself engrossed in the horrific story.
5. A young boy was being bullied at school. A young girl who was much older than she looked helped him take revenge. What is this movie?

Answer: Let The Right One In

"Let The Right One In" was a surprisingly really good movie. When I first saw the subtitles, I thought I wouldn't enjoy it but I stuck with it and really enjoyed it. The fact that the young girl had such a dark secret was pretty horrific but the love that she and the young boy felt, was so innocent.
6. An American nurse was working abroad. The house was haunted with an evil, vengeful spirit. Which movie is this?

Answer: The Grudge

"The Grudge" scared me to bits. It was a great story rather than just a slasher movie and the strange noise that the spirit made was so spooky. The part of the movie, when the vengeful spirit was creeping about that big office building was incredibly scary and I held my cushion really tight!
7. This movie was set in Spain, in a large mansion house. There were numerous sightings of ghostly children. Which film is this?

Answer: The Orphanage

"The Orphanage" was an exceptionally creepy and atmospheric movie. Laura was an orphan herself and she decided to buy the orphanage where she was raised. Her husband Carlos and their adopted son Simon, who was HIV positive moved into the eerie mansion but her son Simon was keen to introduce her to Tomas, his new ghostly friend.

It turned out there were lots of lost spirits in the house.
8. This movie was about an American ambassador to Italy and his wife. There was a priest who was desperately trying to tell him something. What is this movie?

Answer: The Omen

"The Omen" got you going right from the beginning. It was a terrific story of how the devil was trying to get one of his spawn into a position of power. The effect of the shadows up the wall, of those big Rottweilers has never left me!
9. There was a party at a sorority house. A girl had gone missing, then there were obscene phone calls. Which film is this?

Answer: Black Christmas

"Black Christmas" was the movie that started all the slasher type movies like "Nightmare on Elm Street", "Halloween" and "Friday the 13th". The fact that the psychotic murderer was hiding in the attic, was just mind blowing. The story was so suspenseful and eerie but you never saw more than an eye or a blurred image of the maniac.
10. There was this sweet little boy who was a psychotic murderer and there was a teenage babysitter. The little boy grew up and came back to his home town. Which movie is this?

Answer: Halloween

"Halloween" was an absolutely terrifying movie. The music, if nothing else scared you. The unbalanced little boy, who heard his big sister making love to her boyfriend, then knifed her to death was a real shocker. Then it jumped to fifteen years later when he escaped from the institution and went back to the town to get revenge.
