Do You Like Scary Movies? How about some 90s Horror Trivia?

The 1990s were chock full of them. Since it’s Halloween season and, we’re up to our 91st episode, we thought it was time to revisit some of those classic (and not-so-classic) films.

When you’re done with 90s Horror Trivia, take a few seconds to fill out our super-simple, two question feedback survey at the bottom of this page. We use that info to help balance the game’s difficulty as well as figure out what topics you like best.

You can find us on Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit. Swing by to say hi to the gang and your fellow trivia nerds.

Love movies but hate the movie theater experience? Check out Alamo Drafthouse. Great food. Great drinks. A hilarious pre-show customized for every movie by their team of movie nerds.

And a zero-tolerance, no-nonsense, no-talking-and-texting policy. No kidding. Just you and other movie lovers enjoying a great night of film.

Did we mention a free movie ticket every year on your birthday? Yeah, that too.
