Help out a girl? We're going ahead and throwing a Halloween party this year, and we always do games. One of the games is to guess the horror movie (although, unlike either the lists in here or my personal Top 20 we're going with popular or well-known) from a skewed description of the plot.
The questions are in my LJ [link] and if you could, go through them and give me a sense if they are too hard, too easy, or just right...best way to do that is by commenting me the answers, but any feedback is welcome.
The Apple
BWAH!!!
I do not know
The Reflecting Skin. Session 9
is also good.
Those were fun, Raq! I think I only knew about half of them, though.
Thanks for playing, P-C! I can see how you'd guess PotC for the one, but that's so not a horror movie. Undead zombie pirates and all.
I know which one P-C thought was PotC. And I know what it really was.
OOOH.
Now I remember. I haven't seen it, but is that
The Fog
?
Yeppers.
And Sean, you really didn't need the ? after
Phantasm. I mean, dude. Ice cream vendor?
Feel free to take another look at them. These will be easier for the party guests as they'll be working in small teams (although harder because they are not really pop culture vultures).
And Sean, you really didn't need the ?
Yeah, between the
ice cream vendor,
and the
mortician,
I figured that had to be right, but it's been so long, and I was worried I'd gone all soft in the head.
Aaah. I've never seen that one. Heh.
From the perspective of someone who doesn't know horror at all:
I am only positive of #2 because it takes place at my alma mater and was therefore required freshman-year viewing. I haven't seen them, but I'm pretty sure of 3, 13, 18, and maybe 4 and 8. Is
Blair Witch
there? Because I've actually seen that but none of the descriptions seemed to fit at first glance.
megan, as someone who likes horror, and has seen quite a bit, I've so far only figured out 14 out of the 20.
