π₯ StoneKeeper's Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #2332 [nyctc7 wins a VIP ticket to ride with WE'RE ALL GOING TO THE WORLD'S FAIR]
I know the spooky season has passed, but since we're having a couple holdovers on the docket for tonight's watch party I figured what's the harm in a bonus pick in that vein? After all, this is just a simple unassuming online game.
I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.
For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.
Helpful search engine: https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ Click on Feature Film and TV Movie and Video. Then modify for the hints as they are posted.
- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- After 12 hints and 15 incorrect guesses the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.
- Movie must have at least 3500 IMDB votes. Otherwise, add a bonus hint. No documentaries.
- Maximum 2 guesses per player per hint.
- Can't edit a guess once posted. Delete ONLY
- Post one Hint at a time.

Let's get it on!
Hint 1: In Like Flint (1967) - Fewer than 10,000 IMDB user votes.
Hint 2: Happy Birthday to Me (1981) - Horror.
Hint 3: Prophecy (1979) - VFA runtime under 110 minutes.
Hint 4: Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933) - Five or more words in the title.
Hint 5: The Sword and the Sorcerer (1982) - MPA rated R.
Hint 6: A Cat in the Brain (1990) - IMDB user rating is frolicking in the 5s.
Hint 7: The House on Sorority Row (1982) - Director has writing credit.
It may not be all cotton candy and ferris wheels, but nyctc7 shows us a heck of a ride with We're All Going to the World's Fair (2021). The most effective horror tends to play upon fears stemming from cultural taboos and collective dread, and here that manifests in the form of an online game that might be more sinister than meets the eye. Anna Cobb rides a fine line between curiosity and malevolence as the main character, an impressionable teen who descends into a rabbit hole of information that seems all too plausible in this day and age.
Currently available to stream on (HBO) Max and maybe some other services, I think?
