Devils and Monsters in Movies Trivia Questions

1. Who played the shining devil who met his match with "The Witches of Eastwick" in 1987?

From Quiz
His Bark Is Worse Than His Bite

Answer: Nicholson

"The Witches of Eastwick" (1987) was George Miller's first major feature in Hollywood. Strangely, Bill Murray was the studio's first choice for the role but after re-visiting Jack Nicholson's stellar performance in "The Shining" the studio soon changed their minds on the man to play the ultimate bad guy. Nicholson's co-stars in this film were Cher, Susan Sarandon and Michelle Pfeiffer who played three women from Rhode Island with latent powers they did not know they possessed. Jack manages to seduce the ladies and, in the process draws the witch inside out... much to his dismay in the end.

2. What killed the Martians in "War of the Worlds"?

From Quiz Operation: Doomsday II

Answer: Microorganisms

In the 1950s movie "War of the Worlds", the military had tried every kind of bomb they could think of to destroy the Martian spaceships, but nothing worked. At the end of the movie, Martian spaceships began crashing. When the Martians were examined, it was discovered that microorganisms which people were immune to had killed the Martians.

3. Elizabeth Hurley stars as the Devil in this remake of a 1967 movie. The movie also stars Brendan Fraser as the person who trades his soul for seven wishes. Which movie is it?

From Quiz Speak of the Devil

Answer: Bedazzled

The original "Bedazzled" was written by the team of Dudley Moore and Peter Cook. In it Cook plays the Devil and Moore the person who trades his soul. Interestingly, Raquel Welch plays Lilian Lust in the 1967 version. In the 2000 "Bedazzled" The Devil becomes the vixen, as Hurley tackles the role. Both Fraser and Moore play the hapless fool with whom the Devil toys to perfection.

4. In "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" (2001), the fellowship run from which creature in the Mines of Moria?

From Quiz Of Course It's Not A Dragon

Answer: Balrog

In a memorable scene, Gandalf the Grey protects the fellowship by fending off the Balrog, allowing Frodo and the ring to escape the deep Mines of Moria. Holding on for his life, Gandalf has to let go and fall into a chasm pulled down by the demon chasing behind. It is discovered in the second film, "The Two Towers", that once the Bridge of Khazad-dûm collapsed, Gandalf and the Balrog continued fighting to the top of the mountain Zirakzigil. After an extensive battle, both Gandalf and the Balrog fell. Gandalf, however, was sent back to Middle Earth as Gandalf the White, a much more powerful wizard. Nazgûls, also known as Ringwraiths, pursued Frodo and the Ring through most of the journey. Ents are tree creatures from Fangorn Forest, and Shelob is a spider-creature fought by Sam and Frodo in Cirith Ungol. They appeared in "The Two Towers" and "The Return of the King" respectively.

Answer: The Passion of the Christ

17. In what 1988 film do Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin come face to face with a rather large sand worm outside their front door?

From Quiz Of Course It's Not A Dragon

Answer: Beetlejuice

Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin, as the Maitlands, have died. Doomed to 'haunt' the house they live in together, the two are forced to seek help in ridding their country abode of its new residents, the post-modern Deetze family (Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones, and Winona Ryder). When they find that their case worker from beyond the grave is unable to help them beyond a couple of helpful tips, they ask Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton) to help. Soon though, they realize this is a bad idea. The couple is unable to leave their house, despite being dead, because they can't leave without emerging in a desert world populated by angry sand worm creatures. Geena Davis' character later uses this to her advantage.

22. In any Stephen King movie adaptation, Satan cannot be far away. In which 1993 horror film does Max Von Sydow play the Devil incarnate thinly disguised as Leland Gaunt?

From Quiz His Bark Is Worse Than His Bite

Answer: Needful Things

There cannot be many actors who have played Jesus ("The Greatest Story Ever Told" - 1965), the Devil ("Needful Things" - 1983) and an exorcist ("The Exorcist" - 1974) but Swedish actor Max von Sydow (born Carl Adolf von Sydow, 1929) has certainly shown his acting chops by playing all three. In this film adaptation of Stephen King's 1980 novel of the same name, Leland Gaunt moves to Castle Rock, Maine opens an antiques store and plays havoc with the townsfolk in a supernatural way. When his store is blown up he leaves the town as mysteriously as he came presumably to cause havoc in another town.

From Quiz Operation: Doomsday II

Answer: Set off nuclear missiles

Years before "War Games", or "Terminator", or "The Matrix", there was a movie called "Colossus: The Forbin Project", in which a computer was hooked up to all the nuclear missiles of the United States, so that it could immediately react to an attack from Russia. However, the computer took over the Russian computer, so then it controlled all the missiles of the world, and told the people what to do. One time it blew up a city with a nuclear missile to prove what it could do.

24. In which movie did a teenager almost start World War III?

From Quiz Operation: Doomsday

Answer: War Games

Every movie I listed involved a computer controlling nuclear weapons. In "War Games", yet another computer was connected to the missiles, and a teenage boy (Matthew Broderick) hacked into the system and played a computer game showing a simulated nuclear war, but the military people thought it was really happening. The boy and his girl friend escaped the military and found the man who created the computer and brought him back to show the military what to do to prevent World War III.

25. In "The Prophecy" Christopher Walken plays the angel Gabriel and this actor plays Lucifer. Name this actor who also plays Aragorn in "The Lord of The Rings" trilogy.

From Quiz Speak of the Devil

Answer: Viggo Mortenson

"The Prophecy" was released in Europe as "God's Army". The movie tells the story of a war raging among the angels. A man who quit the priesthood to become an LAPD detective is the focus of the movie. He quit the priesthood because of the visions he saw of the angelic war and now that war engulfs his life.

26. In "Cloverfield", a monster wreaked havoc on which major city?

From Quiz Of Course It's Not A Dragon

Answer: New York City

J.J. Abrams' 2008 monster movie, "Cloverfield", was quite the significant film in North America. Hyped up by a viral marketing ploy and mysteriously kept under-wraps for months before its box office release, "Cloverfield" was extremely successful, becoming one of the highest-grossing films of the year by January, before most films even got a chance. Filmed entirely on handheld cameras (becoming the one of the first to popularize the 'shaky-cam' style). You either liked or hated the abrupt urgency of the story, a journey of a small group of survivors, traveling across the city to save a trapped friend and evacuating the city before it's nuked to stop the Cloverfield monster in its tracks. The origin of the monster is unknown, and while it's extremely dangerous, a complete image of the creature is difficult to come by. You only see the most of it at the end of the film, but never a full shot.

From Quiz Werewolves At The Movies

29. In which movie was Jason Voorhees and a woman the last survivors from Earth?

From Quiz Operation: Doomsday II

Answer: Jason X

At the beginning of "Jason X", the tenth movie about Jason Voorhees, Jason was in a containment pod, but the machete penetrated the outside of the pod, stabbing a woman. The entire room became cold and froze Jason and the woman to prevent Jason from escaping. The story jumped hundreds of years into the future when some students visited the unpopulated Earth. In the past all of the people had left planet Earth and lived on space stations and other planets. With future technology, the woman and Jason were taken to a spaceship and defrosted. However, when Jason came back to life, he continued his old habit of murdering people.
