50 Dark Movies, Hidden in a Painting

A fun little game for horror movie fans, presented by M&M'S Dark Chocolate. I was able to get 48 of them, but had to cheat on two.

Damn, but some of those are difficult. I only got 15 so far.

Yeah, some of the easiest (in retrospect) were the most difficult for me. And I had a bitch of a time even finding some of the clues. Still, it was incredibly addicting.

I just cannot get the guy with the baskets, the lady with 2 kids, the 3 kids dancing around and the hermit.

Those are the exact two that stumped me, although I had a hell of a time with the knife (duh) and the lady with the kids (double duh).

the lady with the kids stumped me for a while. the dark cave in the corner got me too. i kept typing in "the cave," hoping it would change its mind and make that the right answer. that's odd, because i really dig the movie that is the right answer.
this is an odd mix of old/new and popular/obscure movies. i had a lot of fun with it.

it's not "big fish." it's a great campy horror movie from the late 70's.

Lee Majors, right? I loved that as a kid. Although my grasp on the proper spelling threw me for a loop for a while on that one.

i don't think there's anybody of note in that movie. i just checked imdb, and lee majors was in "killer fish." close, i guess.

It's Joe Dante's first movie, produced by Roger Corman.
BTW, the grim reaper was pretty easy for me.

Did anyone get the two guys on the stairs?
I've gotten 48 – all but that one and the 'cave' off to the far right.

the two guys on the stairs: a remake of a japanese movie that came out a couple of years ago. the sequel is coming out soon.
the cave: takes place on another planet. bug monsters come up out of the ground and kill people.
