5. Name a movie nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Horror Film which is NOT American.

POINTLESS:

0- The City of Lost Children- princess_lotti
0- House of Mortal Sin- Acidburn
0- Cronos- Jaspine Thompson,
0- Shaun of The Dead- Jonjo
0- The Woman in Black- •Josh•
0- Wolf Creek- Ultraviolence1989
0- Mama- Alex!
0- Santa Sangre- burbe
0- Hellraiser- Jade

1- The Wicker Man- Joe., Chez Wombat,
1- The Medusa Touch- Oliver, Regina
1- The Babadook- Jack, J▲hq
1- The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane- HausofTroye, CodySlayberry

WRONG ANSWERS:

20- The Ring- Dan (although the original is Japanese, it was the American 2002 version which received a nomination and also won the Saturn Award for Best Horror Film in 2002)
20- Final Destination 3- HarryEzra (the birth of #GothicLarry, but very sadly is a wrong answer as it’s an American film!)
20- A Serbian Film- Dobbo (not nominated)

There is quite a lot of pointless answers here if you just take time looking at all the obscure ones kink.gif Some very good films here, Babadook, The Wicker Man and Mama are probably my top 3 from that list! I feel so cruel having to give you so many points for Final Destination 3 Harry as it's ICONIC cry.gif But I'm no lenient quizmaster tongue.gif (you will particularly see this for Q6 where another slaughter is coming....) and Dobbo I had to check several times I wasn't using your Q7 answer there! But A Serbian Film has never received a nomination for the Saturn Award.

So glad I read the questions very carefully and wasn't caught out by the American thing either time!

(I think the most pointlesses I've ever got in a row is 2 so quite amazed right now lol)

OH I THOUGHT IT HAD TO WIN

Anyway I'm doing crap but I'm waiting for the FD5 and bonus question answers because I really wanna know what Lotti is really afraid of. Looks like I'm not a horror fan after all sad.gif

(Watch it be nothing ~)

6. Name a horror movie released this decade starring a ginger female.

POINTLESS:

0- Dark Skies (Annie Thurman)- Joe.
0- Kristen Connolly (Cabin In The Woods)- Jonjo
0- Crimson Peak- •Josh•
0- Jessabelle (Sarah Snook)- Jade
0- Splice- HausofTroye
0- Carrie- Oliver, Regina

5- Oculus (Karren Gillan)- princess_lotti, Chez Wombat, Jaspine Thompson, Ultraviolence1989, burbe, Cody Slayberry

20- Spiceworld The Movie- Dan
20- The Final Destination- Jack (although it features ginger characters none of the leading females are ginger as far as I can gather!)
20- The Conjuring- Alex! (Also from what I can gather most of the starring females are brunette!)
20- Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2- Dobbo (sorry I’m not going to class this as a horror film kink.gif )
20- The Wolfman- J▲hq (once again, I googled Emily Blunt in the Wolfman and she appeared to be brunette in all but one picture, and the only picture she had red hair didn’t seem to be a film still!)
20- The Forgotten (Julianne Moore)- Acidburn (released in 2004)
20- Santa Sangre- HarryEzra (released in 1989)

Okay this question took me AGES to point up drama.gif Firstly I was very strict on what I permitted as ginger kink.gif The word "starred" meant that the character had to be of significance to the movie, and not a lowly supporting neighbour or something laugh.gif For movies I haven't seen I tried to judge the cast fairly to interpret whether the character was relevant enough kink.gif HOWEVER, what unfortunately caught Acidburn and Harry out was the "this decade" bit, all three of their movies starred ginger actors but weren't released this decade! (2010 onwards)

Omg I was stuck for AGES on this question as none came into my head. Glad that this answer paid off after digging around for quite a bit!

7. Name a horror movie which was controversial when it was released.

POINTLESS:

0- Nekromantik - Joe.
0- Anthropophagus- Oliver
0- A Cannibal Holocaust- Jonjo
0- A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge- Cody Slayberry

1- The Exorcist- Ultraviolence1989, HausofTroye
1- Silent Night, Deadly Night- Regina, Jaspine Thompson,
2- I Spit On Your Grave- Acidburn, Alex!, burbe
3- The Human Centipede- princess_lotti, Jack, •Josh•, Dobbo
3- Psycho- HarryEzra, Chez Wombat, J▲hq, Jade

WRONG ANSWERS:

20- Kiss The Stars M/V- Dan

Okay this round went a lot better, and I actually found this one interesting/disgusting to look up. I definitely won't be visiting the Wiki page for A Cannibal Holocaust again, and I will 100% never watch it sick2.gif I've always thought of Psycho as an iconic horror film (which I STILL haven't seen) and I found reading about that controversy quite interesting! I won't detail all the controversies here as they're mainly NSFW but well done to 19/20 of you wink.gif

((DAMMIT Dan I have that song in my head now))

Didn't know Sarah Snook was in Jessabelle, may check that out now as she was excellent in Predestination! Also how did I forget about Jessica Chastain!

Karen Gillan was excellent in the fantastic Oculus, such a great performance and easily the first performance that popped into my head wub.gif

okay I'm also going to give you both the benefit of the doubt there as well! As you both just put Carrie I assumed you meant Chloe and forgot about Julianne sorry kink.gif
