M&M’s Dark Chocolate Game
This is a pretty cool game. Basically you look at the picture and then try to guess what famous horror movies all the scenes and figures represent.
I found it a few days ago and, through playing it sporadically, have been able to come up with 26 of the movies…but now I’m stumped. Thought I’d share it with everyone else and see if we can’t do a little better.
I’m at 14, but I’m just stuck. I’m hurt by the fact that the last good horror movie I saw was Frankenstein, and that I haven’t seen any 21st century “horror” films.
The bottom left reminds me of the little creature that does the toenail fungus commercials…Some of them are easy and then a couple are kind of like the crossword puzzles when they have make up the word day. HA!
Let’s combine our resources!
The lady with the barrel of (dark) water is “Dark Water.”
It doesn’t even seem like there are 15 more spots on the map.
The big fish was “Pirahna,” not to be confused with its sequel, “Pirahna 2,” which was directed by a young, pre-Titanic James Cameron.
The baby holding the leaves in its hand is Rosemary’s Baby. I have no idea why it’s so big.
The two men on the stairs–and apparently the stairs themselves–are bothering me. I can’t figure them out. Nor do I know the fisy-like thing in the water at the bottom left.
Do you know:
-The man above the huge fish at the right side of the screen?
-The giant bug crawling out of that cup-like thing at the bottom right?
-The three children dancing in front of the bug?
-The guy at the bottom center-right who’s wearing a funny hat and who apparently doesn’t have any arms?
-The “Grim Reaper” at the middle-top left side of the screen, standing in the center of the circular fence?
-The mountain at the very top, center?
My favorite answers so far have been Rear Window and A Clockwork Orange. The puzzles for The Sixth Sense and Signs weren’t bad either.
Above fish: Scream
Bug crawling: Beetlejuice
Three children: Child’s Play
Guy without arms: Psycho
I’m not sure of the bottom right.. both of the far bottom right.. white guy and basket guy.
OK, so I’m up to 26. You have 25. Assuming we picked entirely different movies…we’re done! That was easy!
Mountain is Twin Peaks.
Guy in water lower left is Creature from the Black Lagoon.
The stairs is The 39 Steps.
I’m at 37 now. This is a cool game.
The hills have eyes, war of the worlds, The Village.
What’s the guy with the lantern? What’s the M&M in the dress? What’s the pumpkin headed, basket on the head and the cigarette guy? I’m at 39.
I can’t figure out what the candle burning house is? My favorite is the silence of the lambs.
The jawbone was Jaws.
I came up with The Fly and Switch Blade. It made me think of my M&M’s I bought for Halloween. Soooooo I had to try them out. Yum yum!…
Guy in the tower? You mean Alien – - or more to the center is Rear Window.
OK, I’ve gotten 48, thanks to you folks. I’m stuck at the guy in the tower in the right and one I can’t seem to find.
Very annoying, but fun.

The kids in the circle in the lower left is Childs Play
I got up as high as 28. Still more to go, but I’m stuck on a lot of them.
Like the weird thing in the water in the lower left, and the lady with the barrel of water…
Never even heard of that movie…
That’s a woman I think, and the answer is Scream.
Beetlejuice!
Child’s Play (or, more commonly, “The Chucky Movies.”
He’s in a straight jacket, and that would be Psycho.
No idea on the grim reaper or the mountain.
I didn’t get Rear Window or A Clockwork Orange. Shame on me…
Dark water…never heard of that one.
Anyway, here’s a big map of the painting to work off of.
I can’t figure out the guys on the stairs, the big fish, the big baby or the thing that has its face poking out of the water in the lower left. Got any of those?
Also, which ones don’t you have?
I just finished.
Tony, the boys with the map is “Lost Boys.” That was the last one for me.
My time was 22 minutes…which I thought was pretty good until I saw the leader did it in 44 seconds…which means they were probably cheating.
Jay, in addition to the alien Rick mentioned check out the Raven in the tree above the tower.
It is fun.
My favorite one was mom with the kids…The Mummy!
the weird thing on the fower left is the creature from the black lagoon i finished the puzzle im a big horror movie fan
The three children dancing in front of the bug? childs play
The giant bug crawling out of that cup-like thing at the bottom right? beetle juice
The guy at the bottom center-right who's wearing a funny hat and who apparently doesn't have any arms?

The mountain at the very top, center? the hills have eyes
