Answer: Aliens

The emoji with its large bald green head and big eyes is very reminiscent of 'little green men' of pop culture and instantly recognisable as an alien. 'Alien' was a very successful movie which starred Sigourney Weaver as Ripley, the sole survivor of a formidable alien.

Answer: Beetlejuice

A drink carton with a apple on it probably contains juice. Put it with a beetle emoji and you have 'Beetlejuice' or Betelgeuse.

A dragon and a pen emoji might suggest a dragon tattoo and this is reinforced by the hint to get inked.

A journalist and a tattooed computer hacker investigate the decades old disappearance and possibly murder of the grandniece of a wealthy businessman.

Answer: Zodiac

Each emoji represents an astrological star sign and together they form the zodiac. 'Zodiac' is a dramatised version of the hunt for the Zodiac Killer who terrorised San Francisco in the '60s and '70s as told through the eyes of Robert Graysmith, the newspaper cartoonist who obsessed over the case.

Although there are many theories as to his identity, the Zodiac Killer was never caught despite all the letters, ciphers and other clues they sent to the newspaper where Graysmith worked.

Answer: Forbidden Planet

The circle/backlash or 'do not' sign is a universal symbol for 'prohibited' and with an Earth emoji might suggest the movie 'Forbidden Planet' starring Leslie Nielsen, Walter Pidgeon and Anne Francis. Although based on an original film story, it does have a lot of similarities with and has been compared to Shakespeare's 'The Tempest'.

The crew of a starship investigating the disappearance of a previous expedition to a planet, encounter the sinister Dr Morbius, a man with seemingly great powers; his daughter, Altaira; and his slave, Robby the robot who all bear a lot of similarities to Prospero, Miranda and Caliban.
