Answers

  1. C. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) – Tobe Hooper’s 1974 film ends with Sally escaping Leatherface’s cannibals via a pickup truck as he swings his chainsaw in impotent rage. The others feature boat props, masked killers, or dream demons.
  2. C. Jaws (1975) – Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster finale sees Chief Brody ignite the tank inside the shark for a massive explosion. The distractors involve genetically altered or prehistoric sharks without this exact method.
  3. B. Alien (1979) – Ridley Scott’s film has Ripley in her shuttle airlocking the xenomorph into space. Sequels and prequels alter the isolation or add marines.
  4. D. Night of the Living Dead (1968) – George A. Romero’s grim ending has Ben gunned down by vigilantes. Remakes and spin-offs change the survivor fates.
  5. B. Psycho (1960) – Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpiece reveals Norman’s ‘Mother’ persona post-arrest. Others focus on pursuits or different psychologies.
  6. C. Dawn of the Dead (1978) – Romero’s sequel bids farewell with the mall blast and chopper escape. Later entries shift to military bases or roads.
  7. D. The Exorcist (1973) – William Friedkin’s film shows Regan’s cure but Karras’s sacrificial leap. Modern films use different rituals or demons.
  8. D. The Shining (1980) – Stanley Kubrick’s version freezes Jack in the maze, with the 1921 photo coda. King disliked it; sequels revisit Overlook.
  9. B. The Thing (1982) – John Carpenter’s remake ambiguously ends with MacReady and Childs amid flames. Others have group assimilations or escapes.
  10. D. Poltergeist (1982) – Tobe Hooper’s Spielberg-produced film sinks the house into oblivion. Others haunt differently without total implosion.
  11. D. The Fly (1986) – David Cronenberg’s remake has Veronica destroying Brundlefly in the pod. Others feature reanimation or mutations sans telepod.
  12. D. Carrie (1976) – Brian De Palma’s adaptation shocks with Sue’s grave nightmare. Sequels lack the prom-bloodbath-to-dream arc.
  13. D. Child’s Play (1988) – The original burns Chucky in the toy factory. Prequels focus on origins, not this blaze.
  14. D. Rosemary’s Baby (1968) – Roman Polanski’s film has her embracing Satan’s spawn. Others kill or reveal antichrists differently.
  15. D. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) – Wes Craven’s original lets Freddy claim one last victim before apparent victory. Sequels escalate dream rules.
  16. D. Evil Dead II (1987) – Sam Raimi’s comedy-horror portals Ash to the Middle Ages. The sequel expands boomstick chaos unlike the first.
  17. D. Scream (1996) – Craven’s self-aware slasher has Sidney dispatch Ghostfaces ingeniously. Imitators copy but lack the rules trivia.
  18. D. Saw (2004) – James Wan’s debut twists with Jigsaw rising from the ‘corpse’. Sequels build on but diverge from this room.
  19. D. The Sixth Sense (1999) – M. Night Shyamalan’s twist confirms Malcolm’s death via overlooked clues. The Others reverses living/dead roles.
  20. D. Final Destination (2000) – The opener narrowly foils Death’s sign ploy. Sequels chain more elaborate accidents.
