Random humorous conundrum

[Dr. Briggs]

Was planning to make this a topic for the "what-if" section on the main TH site when the time comes, but it's been burning in my mind, and I don't want to forget it...

Not sure if this is addressed in the latest installment or not since I haven't seen it myself, but what if Ghostface just called up a potential victim, asked them what their favorite scary movie was, and he had never even heard of it?

Would he ask what their second favorite scary movie was, what their favorite mainstream scary movie was, or just try to play it off, like "oh yeah... 'The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh,' that's an OK movie... but how much do you know about who the killer in the original Friday the 13th was??"

Also, what if someone named a "scary" movie that was not really horror? Something like Shutter Island maybe...

I'm with you Briggs...

actually I went to a trivia "beat the geek" style contest where we had to stump the movie geek and due to the season (March) we had to pick a chilling horror film for the final round.
a)it could not be a black and white movie
b)it had to have been on vhs (or at least on YouTube)
c)it could be summed up in three words or less if asked

we were asked yes or no questions and the two guys before me were eliminated (they'd chosen Friday the 13th, Nightmare Elm Street) before the "geek" gave up and said there was no movie involving a family, that there were male and female killers, had implied sex scenes or nudity...etc

I said there was! Girly!!!

ty also thought you might enjoy this little tidbit...
I asked this children's preformer well known in parts of the south as Dennis what the most challenging part of his job was in working for kids -
He said when he preforms birthday parties and did the name game and the kid insisted to go by Chucky
"Chucky chucky bo duck me my fo F---" Oh.
So how did he solve this problem?
He used Charles instead! :Benny_monkeysmilies

Good job, Carrie! And great question, Briggs.

I love Caroline's pick, and now feel a desperate need to watch that movie, but I feel like Ghostface would be even easier to stump. That may not be giving him enough credit, but that's just how he comes across to me. I would have thrown out something like "Dead Alive," and been done with it. How can you be afraid of a guy who pulls an, "Oh... hmmm... okay, but what do you think about Freddy?"

EB - is that because it is a psychological thriller?

Without revealing to much for those who have not seen Screem 4, there is a scene where one of the potential victims is quized
and seemingly knows more than ghostface!!

Zombieland is not scary like all other zombie flicks, in fact itsnt very scary at all, I may have shocked just a tiny bit a few times; however I may have laughed more. I nearly choked on my drink on lauging!!! I learned some time back to close my eyes when I'm drinking something while at the computer cause I got tired of having to clean the monitor and keyboard off from when I watch something like this.
