Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the organisation for which "The Boys" work?

Answer: Astro Investigation and Defence Service

"Wish we'd changed that name" says Ozzy. Believe it or not, this bunch is an official government organisation!

2. What weapon does Barry use to despatch the first alien on the beach?

Answer: Pistol

All of these others are used at some point for the purposes of mayhem and violence; as well as a bayonet, an axe, a chainsaw, a mallet, numerous machine guns ... the list goes on.

3. What is written on the road-block that Ozzy and Frank erect to keep away intruders?

Answer: Road Closed - Nuclear Contamination

Frank points out that the nearest nuclear reactor is in America. Ozzy, however, has an answer. "Yeah, but it could have been an explosion on one of those Springbok warships" he says.

4. Derek's bizarre car has cardboard cutouts of four people looking out of the front windscreen. Who are they?

Answer: The Beatles

The Beatles are in their "Sergeant Pepper" costumes. The car was not built especially for the film, but had been converted previously by one of the film crew.

5. What does Derek say when told that the aliens will take over Auckland next?

Answer: "Yeah, well that wouldn't be so bad."

Presumably Auckland is that sort of place.

6. What does Derek do to try to make the captured alien talk?

Answer: Hammers a bayonet into the sole of its foot

Both Derek and the alien - Robert - are played by the director, Peter Jackson. This must have made filming the fight sequence a bit tricky.

7. What does Lord Crumb say when drinking the "chuck"?

Answer: "Aren't I lucky? I got a chunky bit."

Rather worryingly, Frank seems to quite enjoy the taste once he's had a sip...

8. When we next see Giles the charity collector after his capture by aliens, where is he?

Answer: In a cooking pot

"Soaking in Reg's eleven secret herbs and spices", as Lord Crumb delicately puts it.

9. How many aliens fall out of the tree when Frank rakes it with machine-gun fire?

Answer: six

As a result of a series of lucky shots, presumably. Fortunately, the aliens themselves are nothing like as accurate.

10. After his hat is shot off, how does Derek secure the loose piece of his skull?

Answer: He uses the belt from his trousers

Fortunately, his trousers don't fall down, one of the few indignities that he doesn't suffer during the film.

11. Who owns the car that is blown up by the rocket launcher?

Answer: Frank

Needless to say, he isn't too impressed, even if the two aliens inside are blown to pieces as well.

12. How does Derek get into the house during the final assault?

Answer: He cuts a hole in the wall with a chainsaw

There is a splendid camera shot of him standing silhouetted in the Derek-shaped hole (including a slot cut for the chainsaw).

13. The third rocket goes straight through the house, narrowly missing Lord Crumb and Derek, only to blow up what?

Answer: A sheep

Talk about gratuitous violence against innocent creatures. And did you see there isn't even that usual bit in the credits saying "No animals were hurt during the filming of this motion picture"? Suspicious, or what?

14. Which of these is Peter Jackson NOT credited with at the end of the film?

Answer: Music

He also produced and edited the film. Michelle Scullion wrote the music.

15. Who are credited as "Special Assistants to the Producer"?

Answer: Joan Jackson and Bill Jackson (Mum and Dad)

Presumably making sure that he had breakfast before he went filming in the morning, and washing all the blood off his clothes when he got home... This whole amazing film took four years to make, with a crew made up of various of Peter Jackson's friends, filming at weekends, and financed from Peter's day job with a newspaper.
