Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In the 'Halloween' series, what was so frightening about how Michael chased his victims?

Answer: His pace was never more than a walk.

Michael was known for his relaxed gait. It was the utter confidence of the walk that was so scary. It was as though he knew he'd get his prey anyway, so why exert himself? This aspect of the classic series was spoofed in 'Scary Movie' as the killer walked after Carmen Elektra's character in the opening scene.

2. Who wrote the script for 'Scream'?

Answer: Kevin Williamson

This was his first movie script and was a hit. He also created 'Dawson's Creek'. 'Scream' was spoofed throughout the movie, serving as a tie between most of the scenes.

3. When the Wachowski brothers made 'The Matrix', they put a slight tint on all of the scenes that took place in the matrix. What color was that tint?

Answer: Green

The tint was supposed to make the scenes in and out of the matrix carry a different sensory experience. 'The Matrix' was spoofed in 'Scary Movie' when Cindy and Ghostface fought in Cindy's house.

Answer: drowned in a toilet bowl

This movie was suspenseful because it made the viewer expect one mode of death, then delivered another. 'Scary Movie' spoofed it when Cindy got hit by the car at the very end of the movie.

5. Who of the following was NOT in 'Cruel Intentions'?

Answer: Jennifer Love Hewitt

This 1997 remake of 'Dangerous Liaisons' was very popular among its teen audience. 'Scary Movie' spoofed its girl-on-girl french kiss when Cindy and Bobby got their tongues tied in a knot with their kiss.

6. Who composed the theme music for 'Friday the 13th'?

Answer: Harry Manfredini

This easily recognizable and very creepy score was spoofed when Ghostface was high and started whispering the theme.

7. True or False: Aside from the 'Look Who's Talking' series, 'Pulp Fiction' was the first movie John Travolta had done since 'Grease'.

Answer: False

In fact, Travolta had participated in 19 projects, including the three in the 'Look Who's Talking' series. However, none of them were particularly successful. 'Pulp Fiction' was spoofed with the bondage gear donned by Cindy's dad near the end of the movie.

8. 'The Usual Suspects', directed by Bryan Singer, was a very successful suspense movie. Which of the following characters was the first to die?

Answer: Fenster

The others found Fenster's body in the cave at the beach. 'The Usual Suspects' was spoofed during the ending sequence as Cindy figured out who the real killer was.

9. 'Basic Instinct' confirmed Sharon Stone's status as a sex symbol. Which of the following movies, all starring Stone, did NOT capitalize on that status?

Answer: 'Last Dance'

Stone's sex appeal played small part in the prison drama 'Last Dance'. Her famous uncrossing-crossing of the legs scene from 'Basic Instinct' was spoofed in 'Scary Movie' when Ms. Mann did the same move, with a slightly different outcome.

10. True or False: 'Beetlejuice' was Winona Ryder's first film.

Answer: False

It was actually her third, but the two that came before were hardly successful. 'Beetlejuice' was spoofed when Cindy danced in the air and got Ghostface to join in.
