Not long after rewarding Oslo policemen with two million dark chocolate M&Ms for recovering Edvard Munch's "The Scream", the candy giant has paired its new product with fine art a second time. Solve the visual clues hidden in a painting to name 50 movies with dark themes.
“
I got about 20 before I snapped out of it and realized I was spending far too much time on the M&Ms website.
Most of their 'dark' movies are actually 80s B-grade horror flicks, so I suspect this game will be more fun for splatter fans than Andrei Tarkovsky types.
”
“
I got 27 out of 50. Some of these were pretty tough but I had fun trying to figure them out. I will try it again to see if I can figure out the other 23.
”
“
What the heck is the pencil guy and the baby for?
”
“
Eraserhead!
”
“
Rosemary's baby, dont know the pencil dude though, I got like 40. Far too much time, but hey, Im at work!!
”
“
The baby is for "Rosemary's Baby".
”
“
Hi Katja
Do you know "Rosemary's Baby" by Roman Polanski?
”
“
Katja...look at what the baby is holding :-) (that's a good movie to watch btw!)
”
“
The pencil guy is Eraserhead and the baby is Rosemary's Baby. Good
luck!
”
“
We managed to get them all here at work. It's very disappointing when you come to the end, there's no fanfare or anything. Just "Well done, enter your name".
”
“
Yeah, I got those too like as soon as I wrote the comment. And yes, I did see Rosemary's Baby. It was very good. Anyway, I have managed to get 44. Maybe I'll revisit the site later and figure them all out.
”
“
I can't figure out the mountain, or the planets. Or death in that circle. Or the lady with the water. Or the people in the cirlce dancing. Or the guy with the....
”
“
I got to 47 and then surrendered. There's an answer key over here if you can't bear to watch that timer tick up any longer.
”
“
Aw man, I can't believe I missed the clue for Lost Boys! That film was the absolute pinnacle of the Coreys oeuvre.
”
“
The mountains are "twin peaks".
”
“
"Twin Peaks" is technically not a movie. The movie is "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me."
But maybe I'm just bitter because I didn't get that one.
Or Lost Boys...
”
“
I got about 40 between me and my son but I couldn't take it anymore and looked at the key. I never would have gotten some of the obscure movies.
”
“
This is the best game ever. I got my father hooked up too with it!! I got 33 and I found the answer key so I had to look at it. Whats up with the monkeys and the pennies ??
”
“
The monkeys are: "12 monkeys"
”
“
I got 31 before I gave up. It took me forever to figure out that the juggling pennies was for "Sixth Sense."
”
“
I was only able to get 47...anyone know what the person sitting with baskets over his head & feet might be?
”
“
I've got 48. Does anyone know what the guy in the tower on the woman with the two kids is?
”
“
Anne: it's "the wicker man"
”
“
I actually got 22 until i tried looking at the net for horror films, that's when i got to 33 till i gave up .. its a really cool game..challenging and fun...it beats those spreadsheet quizzes that is circulated on email...
”
“
The woman with the 2 kids is the Mummy
”
“
I've got 48 and I am completely stumped on the other two. I'll keep going, though 'cause I'm a puzzle addict!
”
“
The movie with planets is “War of the Worlds”
”
“
The kids playing in a circle is “Child’s Play”.
”
“
What is the lady with the water and death in the fence? I can't get the fish either, what is up with that?
”
“
The fish??? Piranha!!!
”
“
The lady by the water is called Dark Water. It had Jennifer Connelly or somebody in it.
”
“
I liked this viral marketing thing, but I preferred working through this similar campaign a while back for Virgin Digital (Click on "See the poster").
It's the same thing but you have to find all the famous bands, and I like the illustration style more.
Sorry to waste your day all over again...
”
“
I got 36 so far. The water is "Dark Water". The planets are "War of the Worlds". The pencil man is "Eraserhead" ... need to know any more, contact me.
”
“

“

“

“
The guy in the window is "Rear Window." The green M&M is “Blue Velvet.” The sheep are “Silence of the Lambs.”
