Horror QUIZ #27: Know your zombie movie, know your vampire movie, know your werewolf movie …

June 18th 2009 23:41

I recently was sent a link through to a true or false quiz. Twenty movie titles separated into ten true or false questions. You had to decide which was a real movie title and which was the fake one. The first and last ones were the easiest: Diary of the Dead or Cookbook of the Dead? Bed of the Dead or Document of the Dead? Providing you know your George Romero movies they were dead easy. The others were a tad more difficult as the question masters had dug up some very obscure, but very real, movie titles, such as Legion of the Dead, Orgy of the Dead, Cruise Ship of the Dead, and the clincher, Nudist Colony of the Dead. Yup, it seems a lot of fly-by-night filmmakers have been very keen to try and cash in on Romero’s seminal series of exploits of the zombie kind.

It gave me inspiration to concoct a new quiz (since I haven’t posted one in nine months!). A series of straight forward multiple choice questions. But with a twist: choose the real sub-genre movie title amidst the fake ones, or is it the fake sub-genre movie amidst the real ones? You decide.
