Horror QUIZ #21: True or False?

March 17th 2008 22:38
Halloween (1978) young Michael Myers
It’s one thing or the other, a 50/50 chance. How do you fancy your luck? Game for a gamble?

1. Michael Myers’ murdered sister’s name is Janet.

2. American Psycho's Patrick Bateman is based on a real life merchant New Yorker.

3. Carrie White is a virgin.

4. Interview With the Vampire nearly went into production in the early-to-mid 80s with Rutger Hauer as Lestat and Eric Roberts as Louis.

5. The Descent's main cast is entirely female.

6. Ridley Scott was to direct I Am Legend in the mid-90s.

7. Psycho was originally filmed in colour but Hitchcock later changed his mind and had all prints made in monochrome.

8. I Spit on Your Grave's notorious gang rape sequence goes on for approximately 40 minutes.

9. David Cronenberg’s Frankenstein has finally been green-lit for 2010.

10. On the set of The Exorcist William Friedkin would sometimes fire a pistol close to an actor’s head in order to get the reaction he wanted.

11. A real cadaver was used during the autopsy scene in Buio Omega (Beyond the Darkness).

12. Joe Pilato’s line “Choke on ‘em! Choke on ‘em!” in Day of the Dead was improvised in a moment of contempt as he gagged on the stench of the real rotting offal being used as his own innards.

13. James Cameron’s debut feature was directing the sequel Piranha II: Flying Killers.


13 … You’re a walking, talking polygraph machine!
9 – 12 … You’re almost good enough to be a traveling salesman!
5 – 8 … You need to practice your poker face more often.
1 – 4 … I think you should stick to fibbing about wearing clean underwear!

Check your answers by right-clicking and highlighting over the black space below.

1. False 2. False 3. 4. True 5. True 6. True 7. False 8. True 9. False 10. True 11. False 12. True 13. True

hey bryn!

not an easy quiz, i surprised myself w/ a 9. just had to take a minute to thank you for a great site. i was weeding out my bookmarks last night, lamenting the sad state of my horror resources, and now here you are! some wouldn't agree, but i was in desperate need of a decent enabler for this addiction.

i found my way here while trying to hunt up some information about la bête 2008 & whether it's a remake or a different animal entirely [well that wasn't planned, but ok!]. i'm trying to pull myself out of a recent obsession w/ 70s horrors, so it's likely i've been missing something right in front of me. if you have any info on that, i'd love to hear it. i typically hide, but you have a new regular visitor in me!
