Bit of a tricky one here, as the missing actor is Ken Foree. If you don't look carefully it can catch you out! haha!

Answer: 1996

We have lost a true gore genius.

4. Who directed 'Return of the Living Dead 2'?

Shame she hasn't done much else since then.

Answer: Kyra Schon

Lovely little Kyra went on to very little acting after her menacing role as the killer girl with the trowel. Shame.

Answer: Cornwall

Be ashamed if you picked Londonshire. It doesn't even exist!

19. What was the budget for Romero's 1978 classic 'Dawn of the Dead'?

22. What is the name of house in the 1990 'Night of the Living Dead' remake?

23. Who WROTE the travesty known as 'Children of the Living Dead'?

Answer: Karen Lee Wolf

Don't blame director Ramsey - this was all her fault. John Russo was a Producer and Hinzman the Director of Photography.

He turned in an excellent script but the executives didn't like it and turfed him off the project. His original script can be found on the internet.
