Answers

  1. D. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre – Sally Hardesty (Marilyn Burns) is the sole survivor, rescued hysterically in a pickup truck after Leatherface’s rampage. The others have different final girls: Laurie (Halloween), Nancy (A Nightmare on Elm Street), Sidney (Scream).
  2. C. Halloween – Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) fends off Michael Myers and survives Haddonfield’s night of terror. Distractors feature other slashers: Sally (Texas Chain Saw), Sidney (Scream), Jess (Black Christmas).
  3. A. Friday the 13th – Alice Hardy (Adrienne King) decapitates Pamela Voorhees and escapes Camp Crystal Lake by canoe. Others are unrelated slashers with distinct killers and survivors.
  4. B. Black Christmas – Jess Bradford (Olivia Hussey) evades Billy’s attacks and flees the sorority house. Distractors involve later slashers or dream killers.
  5. A. Carrie – Sue Snell (Amy Irving) survives Carrie’s telekinetic rampage and has the nightmare grave scene. Others feature slasher survivors, not supernatural revenge.
  6. C. Alien – Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) is explicitly the last survivor after nuking the Nostromo. Others involve different sci-fi horrors like Antarctic aliens or ghost ships.
  7. A. The Evil Dead – Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) battles Necronomicon-spawned Deadites and survives the cabin. Distractors parody or remix cabin horror tropes differently.
  8. B. A Nightmare on Elm Street – Nancy Thompson (Heather Langenkamp) defeats Freddy Krueger by pulling him into reality. Sequels and others alter the formula or focus elsewhere.
  9. C. Scream – Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) kills Billy and Stu in Woodsboro. Imitation slashers like I Know What You Did have different weapons and plots.
  10. D. The Silence of the Lambs – Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) rescues the victim and shoots Buffalo Bill. Lecter sequels feature different protagonists.
  11. C. Get Out – Chris Washington (Daniel Kaluuya) flashes his keys to escape the Armitage estate. Related Jordan Peele films have twistier family dynamics.
  12. B. Happy Death Day – Tree Gelbman (Jessica Rothe) breaks the loop by stabbing the masked killer. Time-loop films like The Final Girls involve meta slashers instead.
  13. B. Ready or Not – Grace Le Domas (Samara Weaving) survives the family’s curse-triggered hunt. Similar films like You’re Next feature home invasions, not games.
  14. C. You’re Next – Erin Harrold (Sharni Vinson) massacres the family using a blender and axe. Hush and others lack her combat skills and accent.
  15. B. Hush – Maddie Young (Kate Siegel) leverages her deafness against the intruder. Films like A Quiet Place involve sound-sensitive monsters, not stalkers.
  16. B. The Descent – Sarah Carter (Shauna Macdonald) escapes the crawlers in the original UK cut. Others are generic cave horrors without the all-female crawler element.
  17. C. The Ring – Rachel Keller (Naomi Watts) saves herself and her son by duplicating the tape. Ringu is the Japanese original with Sadako.
  18. D. Jaws – Chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) destroys the shark off Amity Island. Modern shark films use different explosive methods or settings.
  19. B. Hereditary – Peter Graham (Alex Wolff) outlives his demon-possessed family. Films like Midsommar involve daylight cults, not indoor hauntings.
  20. B. Midsommar – Dani Ardor (Florence Pugh) becomes the cult’s queen after the fiery climax. The Wicker Man has a sacrificial ending for its outsider.
