  4. Eve, you are Getting way to good at this.All your answers are correct, For #10 I'll take The Pope Must Die, but I was looking for Blow Up. He Smashes his guitar Pete Townsend style as a member of the Yardbirds. What about Tobey's "Cult Film ?

  8. For the cult film, I'm thinking Walking Tall...but could be Dirty Larry Crazy Mary...I mean Dirty Mary Crazy Larry...and Blowup is a better choice than The Pope Must Die, I must say...

  9. Paul...I just happened to be on the site because I'm getting ready to post "Dial H for Hitchcock" and saw trivia come up while I was here - and obviously "got into it"...you post a very nice mix of trivia questions, by the way, Paul...

  10. Eve Good Choices but not it. Think Low budget , bad production values (mike in frame) and Big Ego Star/ director

  11. (Paul, you rat) Here's my attempt at the Bruce Campbell/Sam Ramaii filmography...this is sooo not what I watch - if it's not complete, so be it: Within the Woods, The Evil Dead, Crimewave, Evil Dead II, Darkman, Army of Darkness, Spider-Man 2 and 3, and they're apparently slated to do Spider-Man 4 and Evil Dead 4 (can't wait), too...

  12. Is the Kenneth Tobey cult Film Rage...starred Geo. C. Scott who also directed...

  13. Eve, Close but no cigar, you forgot Darkman, it's a non speaking role, but Hey Bruce is in it.As for the Cult Film a big hint. The Star/director is in the the opening scenes Of South Pacific. No it's not Ray Waltson. And BTW You got the FREE PASS for next week.

  14. Actually, Darkman is on the list, btw Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness...I remember Tom Laughlin being in the opening of South Pacific, and he became a star with Billy Jack, which he directed (and made some sequels as I recall...and Tobey was in it...so...does that fill the bill?

  15. TA Dah! I knew the South Pacific hint would do it. Eve,to Quote Boogie" Your Good.... Your Very Good"

  16. "the lady eve" and Brigid O'Shaughnessy had a couple of similarities...except Jean/Eve had a heart, wasn't a murderer, and had a great sense of humor (there are some clues for you, Paul...)
