Horror Movie Killers Trivia Questions
1. It was a murderous mother who enjoyed hacking up young friends and lovers at a famous camp in this very early '80s horror classic. Which one was it?

From Quiz Horror 101: Malicious Moms... & Dastardly Dads!

Answer: Friday the 13th

Pamela Voorhees, mother of the infamous killer Jason Voorhees, was not only responsible for the murders at Camp Crystal Lake in the first film of the franchise, but she was also the reason that her only child Jason had some deep mommy issues and wound up becoming one of the horror genre's most ruthless killers! 'Friday the 13th' came out in the year 1980 and made such an impact with horror fans, that not only did it pump out many sequels and a remake, but it was also an influence on many other horror films with very similar plots of teens getting offed at camp!

2. A little boy named Robbie Freeling got dragged under his bed by a creepy clown doll that came to life in this 1982 horror film. Name it.

From Quiz When Good Toys Go Bad!

Answer: Poltergeist

Oliver Robbins played the role of Robbie. The house his family lived in was built over a cemetery in which only the headstones were moved... which meant there were unrested spirits haunting their home. A lot of strange things happened, including Robbie's creepy clown doll coming to life and hiding under his bed one night before dragging him under there as well. Tobe Hooper directed this classic gem of a film that starred Craig T. Nelson and JoBeth Williams.

3. In the series "Friday the Thirteenth", Jason Voorhees was not the original killer. In fact, it was his mother, Pamela Voorhees. Here's the question: why was she a killer in the first place?

From Quiz Name That Horror Movie Killer!

Answer: She got mad at the camp counselors for letting Jason drown in the lake.

While Jason was in the lake, the camp counselors were not paying attention, leading to his death by drowning. Furious, Mrs.Voorhees took a machete and started killing all the camp counselors at Camp Crystal Lake. Her rampage lasted until one of the counselors cut her head off. Jason then came up out of the water, and grabbed his trademark weapon, the machete.

4. Which film that starred Danny Aiello and Garrett Morris was about victims who became addicted to a deadly ice cream type substance?

From Quiz Horror 101: You Ate That?...What a Dummy!

Answer: The Stuff

This 1985 film was directed by Larry Cohen. Something very bad would happen to those who ate the white substance that wound up being marketed as ice cream to the public. People became addicted and couldn't stop eating it. After doing so, they had become sort of zombie-like, before finally being eaten alive from the inside. The stuff was actually a parasite that had left its victims as nothing more than an empty shell.

5. What was the name of the killer clown in the movie, '100 Tears'?

From Quiz Horror 101: Send In the Clowns...Put Out the Cats!

Answer: Gurdy

'100 Tears' was released in 2007, and was directed by Marcus Koch. This film was about a serial killer clown named Gurdy, who stalked and killed his victims with an oversized meat cleaver. Two investigative reporters were on his trail trying to get the scoop, since they saw it as their chance to get their big break in the business. Unfortunately for them, they wound up getting too close to their subject, and became part of the story.

6. This bad guy first appeared in 1978. He was first known as "The Shape" and doesn't talk much. It's apparent he may need counseling to deal with his family issues. Who is he?

From Quiz Thrillers, Chillers, and Ravenous Killers

Answer: Michael Myers

As a child, Michael Myers killed his sister, Judith, on Halloween. He is sent to Smith's Grove Sanitarium where he meets Dr. Loomis for the first time. Loomis works with Michael for years, and is perhaps the one person who knows Michael best. While the original "Halloween" does not show why Michael is so bent on killing his entire family, the 2007 Rob Zombie remake delves into Michael's childhood. Rob Zombie's "Halloween" shows Michael taking abuse from his mother and her boyfriend. It also outlines his tendencies for masks and cruelty to animals. Nearly all of the movies in the "Halloween" series feature Michael hunting down and killing the rest of his family. The only "Halloween" movie Michael does not star in is "Halloween III: Season of the Witch."

Jack took his family to the Overlook Hotel where he would work as a winter caretaker while also writing his novel. While there, Jack became possessed by the evil that inhabited the hotel, and then eventually tried to kill his family because of it. This creepy film was directed by Stanley Kubrick.

10. Brad Dourif was the voice of this killer doll from a very popular film franchise that started in 1988. What was the doll's name?

From Quiz When Good Toys Go Bad!

Answer: Chucky

Dourif played the role of serial killer Charles Lee Ray. His spirit went into a "Good Guy" doll named Chucky, which was given to a young boy named Andy. Things went south from there. Chucky went on to terrorize numerous victims throughout the years, considering that the original 1988 film titled 'Child's Play' went on to spawn numerous sequels.

The Monkey toy became possessed with an angry spirit after a woman named Elmira Johnson tried communicating with the spirit through a Ouija board.

The father's girlfriend got trapped under the monkey's spell and tried to kill Michael... twice! Things don't end well, to say the least. This film was directed, produced, written and edited by Kenneth J. Berton.

15. In this bloody slasher, someone is brutally murdering some bowlers at the local bowling alley while wearing a bowling bag over their head as a disguise. What is the name of this 2008 horror movie that is written and directed by Ryan Nicholson?

From Quiz Horror 101: Sports Slashers & Fatal Fitness!

Answer: Gutterballs

The members of rival bowling teams have a lot to fear when a killer is stalking and killing them at a disco themed bowling alley called the Xcalibur Bowling Centre. The movie posters and film taglines emulate and spoof other horror classics like 'Maniac' (1980) and 'Happy Birthday To Me' (1981).

16. In the series "Scream", the killer is always a different person in each movie. What is the one who wears the costume called?

From Quiz Name That Horror Movie Killer!

From Quiz Horror 101: Gruesome Twosomes... & Horror Hounds!

Answer: Ida

The role of Vincent was played by Rory Calhoun, and his sadistic sister Ida was played by Nancy Parsons. There was something very disturbingly different about Vincent's smoked meats. They were made with the flesh of their human victims. The victims were trapped, buried with only their heads sticking out of the ground, and their vocal cords taken out so they couldn't scream. Then they were fed and cared for until it was time to kill them. Ida was Vincent's partner in crime when it came to helping with the 'secret ingredients'! She would assist in the trapping and the murdering of the victims. Creepy!

18. In the original movie (released in 1980), this psycho killer goes on a murder spree at Camp Crystal Lake. Who is it?

From Quiz Thrillers, Chillers, and Ravenous Killers

Answer: Pamela Voorhees

Pamela Voorhees gave birth to Jason when she was just 16 years old. Because of his deformity, she wouldn't allow Jason to go to school. Pamela and Jason were very close to each other. When Pamela gets a job as a cook at Camp Crystal Lake, Jason goes with her. The kids tease Jason, making fun of him for not being able to swim. In an effort to prove the other kids wrong, Jason jumps into the lake. His body is never found and he is presumed dead. Pamela blames the camp counselors and goes on a killing spree.

From Quiz When Good Toys Go Bad!

Answer: Annabelle

An evil spirit manifested itself in Annabelle, and this caused the doll to haunt its owners. Since this film was based on actual events, there was in fact a real Annabelle doll, only it did not look like the one in the film.

'The Conjuring' was directed by James Wan and starred Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson as paranormal investigators Lorraine and Ed Warren.

22. This 1989 horror/comedy is about a killer lawnmower who slices and dices people on a country club golf course. What is the title of the film?

From Quiz Horror 101: Sports Slashers & Fatal Fitness!

Answer: Blades

This hilarious low budget movie is an obvious spoof to the 1975 classic 'Jaws' in so many ways. Only instead of a shark doing the killing, it is a lawnmower. One of the similarities includes balloons being tied to the mower to know its whereabouts, instead of the yellow barrels used to follow the shark. It is distributed by Troma Entertainment.

27. In the movie "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre", a killer kills people with a chainsaw. What is his name?
