Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who was the remaining survivor in the 2008 film 'The Ruins'?

Answer: Amy

The role of Amy was played by actress Jena Malone. At the end of the film, she managed to drive away from the Mayan ruin in the jungle where her boyfriend and friends were killed. They were there on vacation and wound up being kept as prisoners by the Mayan locals.

The reason was that the vines in the Mayan ruin were deadly! Anyone who touched them would become infected with these vines growing under their skin, which caused death. The alternate ending of the film on DVD showed Amy driving away, but with vines moving under her forehead, showing how she had became infected as well.

Then there was another scene where a cemetery caretaker found some red flowers on Amy's grave that were imitating the same whistling sound that the caretaker was whistling while walking through the graveyard.

This great film was directed by Carter Smith. Ben Stiller was executive producer.
2. Which of these films had a scene where a young boy gets grabbed and pulled out of his bedroom window by a tree?

Answer: Poltergeist

Poor Robbie Freeling was so scared of that creepy looking tree that sat right outside his window. It was while Robbie was being saved by his parents that his younger sister, Carol Anne, was pulled by an unseen force into her bedroom closet. This 1982 classic was directed by Tobe Hooper.
3. Which of these films was about killer plants that walked and killed people after a meteor shower hit the Earth?

Answer: The Day of the Triffids

This 1962 film was directed by Steve Sekely, and starred Howard Keel. After a meteor shower blinded almost all of the Earth's population, giant plants that uprooted themselves and walked on land wound up killing people and animals. They would feed off them so they could produce more triffids to take over the Earth.
4. In the 1982 anthology 'Creepshow', one of the segments starred Stephen King as a man named Jordy Verrill who found a meteorite in his yard. After touching it, he became infected with an organism that eventually wound up covering his whole body with a plant-like growth. What was the name of this segment in the film?

Answer: The Lonesome Death of Jordy Verrill

Poor Jordy couldn't take it anymore and blew his head off with his shotgun when he realized he was destined to become a full blown plant. This film segment was taken from a short story by King titled 'Weeds'.
5. Which 1990 film was about a nanny who would steal infants and feed them to a tree in the forest?

Answer: The Guardian

Jenny Seagrove starred as an evil nanny who would take on jobs in order to steal infants from their families and feed them to a Druid tree that she worshiped. The tree came alive when she brought the babies to it, and even killed for her when she was in danger. It turned out this ritual was done to keep her in human form, since she was actually a tree herself.
6. In the 2007 film 'Ahh! Zombies!(Wasting Away)', what was it that the four friends ate that wound up turning them into zombies?

Answer: Green soft serve ice cream

The ice cream became infected with a biological chemical, which was the reason for it turning green. The two couples were in the bowling alley when they ate it. At first, they were not even aware that they had become zombies. The scenes of them in their true zombie form were shown in black and white instead of color, making the film unique.
7. Where was it that Danny was attacked and infected by a zombie, in the film 'Zombie Honeymoon'?

Answer: On the beach

In this 2004 independent horror film, Denise and Danny were laying together on the sand by the ocean when the zombie emerged from the water. She couldn't wake Danny in time, and the zombie held Danny down and spit up a black disgusting fluid into his mouth. She knew something was wrong with Danny when he soon began craving meat, since he was originally a vegan.
8. What was the name of the mall that people took refuge in George A. Romero's 1978 film 'Dawn of the Dead'?

Answer: Monroeville Mall

In order get away from the growing number of zombies that seemed to be taking over, some of the people managed to get inside of Monroeville Mall and locked themselves in to protect themselves against the ravenous horde of the undead. This seemed to be a good idea for awhile until a biker gang managed to break into the mall, which caused the zombies to make their way in as well! This classic by Romero was the sequel to his 1968 classic, 'Night of the Living Dead'. Ken Foree and Tom Savini starred.

A remake was released in 2004 which starred Sarah Polley and Ving Rhames.
9. What was the name of the 2007 horror film that was about people in Manhattan who turned into rat-like zombies?

Answer: Mulberry Street

This one was part of the second 'After Dark Horrorfest'. The film focused on residents of an apartment building on Mulberry Street. They had to fight for their lives against people who had turned into vicious half zombie, half rat like monsters due to a deadly infection outbreak.
10. Which of these films that starred Carrie-Anne Moss was about zombies that were turned into servants for families?

Answer: Fido

This 2006 horror comedy from Canada took place in the 1950s. The dead were turned into zombies due to a space radiation outbreak. A corporation named Zomcom helped humans to be able to live normal lives with zombies as their servants by creating a collar that was put on the zombies, along with a remote control to help keep them from attacking their owners.

This was a totally normal thing to do, and anyone who didn't have their own pet zombie was considered somewhat of an outcast.
