Look at the number of pennies.

Those aren't zeroes, they're Os.

Someone linked to this about two weeks ago, and it took me and the husband and two kids to get most of them.

The three children dancing in a circle

Think of other ways children play.

50/50, baybee! Thanks to dcp.

Beej: don't overengineer your first one. That was a "duh" for me also, when I described the clue out loud.

I don't think the M&M is anything other than the Lynch movie. The stairs are something else.

And yeah, it says "Dark" movies, but one isn't even a movie, per se, and one, maybe two, are comedies.

Sean: the fish swallowing a string of pearls is more about the surrounding than the specifics of the "fish"

Some of the rest of yours were the last ones I got also. I got a couple by running through famous horror movie titles and realizing what matched.

The three people looking at a map

They are more specific than "people." Look at their age and gender, and what they are.

Don't overengineer these:

The three children dancing in a circle. (playing ring around the rosie maybe, or another game?)

The woman wrangling two kids. (what is a woman with kids?)

The guy in a straitjacket.

The stairs.

The pile of jack-o-lanterns. (when do jack-o-lanterns happen?)

Endgame ones for me were the tunnel mouth, the big roach, the blue dress, and the aforementioned Ring Around the Reaper and the two dudes. (I thought "The Odd Couple" was a dark movie!)

(probably serial killing)

the juggled pennies?

This is a groaner.

The guy with the telescope in the rickety building

This one seems to be more an iconic image from the movie than a rebus of the title. Although I think it was binocs in the movie.

The guy with baskets on his head and feet

What are baskets made of?

The guy WAS a groaner. And you are right about the optical device in the movie, I think.

I'm so dim. I'm STILL not getting the pennies or the woman. Glerg. Cement cranium!

Pennies, for Beej only:

how many pennies? how much money does that come to? What movie sounds like that?

I just want to say, that a few of the titles are not what I'd call 'horror' films per se. Not even all that dark, in some cases.

Very true. I'm not a even a horror fan, I haven't seen most of the movies in the game, I've just heard about them. Don't overthink the clues. Some are pretty literal, like 7, but some are supposed to be punny, like the woman with the kids, which was the one that took me the longest.

Beej:

and the Ballgown is the David Lynch movie, but what else? Not the Stepford Wives?

Start with the color

and the planets nothing to do with Mars or When World's Collide?

Mars is correct, but nothing to do with Jupiter or Saturn

Sean:

The fish swallowing a string of pearls or something

Not entirely a fish.

The three children dancing in a circle.

A more general term than dancing, for children.

The woman wrangling two kids.

A pun about the woman.

The guy with a lantern.

It's not about the guy. It's about the lantern, but other objects would have worked as well.

The guy in a straight jacket

He's in a straight jacket, so he must be....

The three people looking at a map.

a/s of the people, and why are they looking at a map?

The group of people wearing zeroes and arguing.

Those aren't zeroes.

The stairs.

I can't think of a good clue. Second word is a synonym for stairs.

The pile of jack-o-lanterns.

Their own special day.

Oh, sweet weeping everything. I got the pennies. Thanks Raq.

dcp, I got the dress one pretty early on, but the others surrounding the dress? Not so much.

And finally the stairs!

Hint for that one: count

And the woman! Now that one hurt.

Could someone link me to that quiz again? I got up to 10 yesterday and then ran out of time.
