Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Eileen Marie Davidson was a famous soap star who starred on 'Days of Our Lives', 'The Young and the Restless', 'Santa Barbara' and 'The Bold and the Beautiful'. But she also starred in a 1983 slasher film. Which one was it?

Answer: The House on Sorority Row

Eileen Davidson played the role of Vicki in the film. It was about a group of sorority sisters who accidentally killed their house mother because of a prank gone wrong (this was not unusual in '80s horror films). They decided to cover up the murder and not tell anyone... which resulted in them getting killed off one by one! Davidson was a Daytime Emmy Award winner in 2014 for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role in 'Days of Our Lives'.

She also had seven Emmy nominations between the years of 1986-2003 for her roles in 'Days of Our Lives' and 'The Young and the Restless'.
2. The 2004 horror movie titled 'Riding the Bullet' and the 2005 horror film 'Venom' both starred a well known soap actor. Which one of these was it?

Answer: Jonathan Jackson

Jonathan Jackson was most famous in daytime soaps for his role on 'General Hospital' as Lucky Spencer, who was the son of fan favorites Luke and Laura Spencer. The role won him a total of five Emmy Awards. 'Riding the Bullet' (2004) was taken from a story by Stephen King, while 'Venom' (2005) was about a group of teen friends who were relentlessly chased by a possessed man named Ray Sawyer through the Louisiana swamps.
3. Which longtime star of 'General Hospital' had a starring role in the 1994 movie 'Shrunken Heads'?

Answer: Rebecca Herbst

Rebecca Ann Liberty Herbst had been playing the role of Elizabeth Webber (Elizabeth Spencer while married to Lucky) since 1997. She also appeared in 'Days of Our Lives' and the short-lived nighttime series 'General Hospital: Night Shift'. She won the Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Younger Lead Actress in 1999, and had four award nominations.

In the Charles Band film titled 'Shrunken Heads', she played the role of Sally. The movie was about three murdered kids who became reanimated into shrunken heads by a voodoo priest.

This was so they could exact revenge on who killed them.
4. Actor Rick Hearst has starred on many daytime soaps. Aside from playing the role of Sonny Corinthos' brother Ric Lansing on 'General Hospital', he also appeared on 'Days of Our Lives', 'Guiding Light', 'The Young and the Restless' and 'The Bold and the Beautiful'. He also starred in a horror/comedy film that was directed by Frank Henenlotter. What was the name of the film?

Answer: Brain Damage

'Brain Damage' was released in 1988. Hearst starred as Brian, who had to kill humans for the leech-like monster that feeds off of brains. This parasite was named Aylmer, and it would secrete a blue fluid into Brian's brain, which would make him hallucinate.
5. The 2013 horror film 'Curse of Chucky' had a soap star play the role of Father Frank. Which actor was it?

Answer: A Martinez

Adolfo Larrue Martinez III had roles in many soaps which included 'Santa Barbara', 'General Hospital', 'One Life to Live', 'The Bold and the Beautiful' and 'The Young and the Restless'. 'Curse of Chucky' starred Brad Dourif and his daughter Fiona as well as Martinez.

It took place 25 years after the original film, and was noticed to have gone back to its darker roots and away from the comedy flavor the last couple of films in the franchise had.
6. Actress Fiona Hutchison played the role of Gabrielle Medina (who also went by last names Holden and Buchanan) on the popular ABC soap 'One Life to Live'. She also starred on 'Guiding Light' and appeared briefly on 'As the World Turns'. Aside from these roles, she also starred in a horror film in the '80s. Which one of these films is the correct answer?

Answer: American Gothic

'American Gothic' (1988) starred Yvonne De Carlo and Rod Steiger as a religion-crazed couple who, along with their nutty children, tormented and murdered a group of friends who wound up at their house after their plane had engine trouble. Hutchison played the very feisty and defiant role of Lynn.
7. Actor Sean Kanan was known on 'General Hospital' for his role as A.J. Quartermaine. He also starred on 'The Bold and the Beautiful' and 'The Young and the Restless' as Deacon Sharpe. Which one of these horror films did he star in earlier in his career?

Answer: Hide and Go Shriek

The year 1988 gave us the horror gem 'Hide and Go Shriek'. It was about a group of friends who decided to spend the night partying for graduation in a furniture store that was owned by one of their dads. Would have been fine if it wasn't for the fact that they ended up missing one by one... due to someone who was hidden in the store killing them off! Sean played the role of John Robbins.
8. Which of these soap stars had a starring role in the 2006 film 'The Turistas'?

Answer: Josh Duhamel

Josh Duhamel played on the soap 'All My Children' as Leo du Pres. It was his first acting role. 'The Turistas' was about a group of people who were visiting Brazil and wound up being drugged and captured by a group of bad people who wanted to steal their organs for harvesting.
9. Actor Billy Warlock had a role on 'General Hospital' as A.J. Quartermaine (he replaced original actor Sean Kanan), among other roles he's played throughout his career. He also starred in a bizarre 1980s horror film. Which of these was it?

Answer: Society

'Society' was one of those oddball films that has to be seen to be believed! Warlock played the role of Bill Whitney, a teen who had always felt as though he didn't quite fit in with his parents and sister... and he soon came to realize that there was a very good reason for that! Aside from starring on 'General Hospital', Warlock also starred on 'Days of Our Lives', 'The Young and the Restless', 'As the World Turns', and 'One Life to Live'.
10. Which one of these soap actresses starred in the 2000 horror slasher 'Bloody Murder'?

Answer: Jessica Morris

'Bloody Murder' was about a group of teens who wound up being stalked and murdered by a killer with a mask, which was pretty similar to other '80s slashers. It spawned a sequel titled 'Bloody Murder 2: Closing Camp'. Jessica Morris starred as Julie. Morris starred in several other horror films as well, such as 'Dead Man's Hand' (2007), 'Decadent Evil II' (2007), 'Dangerous Worry Dolls' (2008), 'The Dead Want Women' (2012) and 'Sorority Slaughterhouse' (2015), to name a few. Morris starred on 'One Life to Live' from 2001-2005 in the role of Jennifer Rappaport.
