Random Trivia III
*******************************************************
The Rules --- Please Read!
1. A player may answer one question per update. If a player correctly answers more than one, he or she will be credited with the lowest-point question correctly answered (and any other answers will be up for grabs). NEW TWIST – I will occasionally include a bonus question just for fun. You can answer this along with your main answer so go ahead and just make guesses.
2. If two or more people correctly answer a question and their posts have the exact same timestamp, they'll both get full credit for it.
3. An edit time counts as the time an answer was posted, so be sure to be careful when editing a post.
4. I screw up the scores sometimes, so just tell me if I didn't award you points when I should have (or otherwise messed up), and I'll fix it ASAP. And I don't have any set time when I update this; I just do it whenever I have time to.
5. Have fun. =)

29. Boom Boy of the Freex
Holy crap, it has been *way* too long since I've read through my Ultraverse comics.
37 is Gradius III
I had a copy of #40 back in the day and didn't think it was so bad. And having them all buried in the desert didn't make my copy any more valuable when I sold it on eBay

What 1990 movie features a family visiting a small town occupied be murderous creatures, none of whom are eponymously named?
42. 4 points
About which movie did Michael Cain say, “I have never seen it… However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific!”?

This instrument, prominently used in classic sci-fi movies, is operated by moving one’s hands between two antenna to interrupt electrical waves which are then amplified to create sound.
45. 3 points
What 1997 movie features the tag line, “One small step for man… One giant leap for terror”
41. "Sundown: The Vampire In Retreat"?
Changed my mind it's "Troll 2", which makes more sense. There aren't Trolls but Goblins in the movie.
42 has to be Jaws 4 from the caliber of the rest of the answers.
41. Good idea to change that answer. Also Sundown came out in ’91.
And isn’t Michael Cain’s quote awesome?
Also I’m going to propose that whoever does the next round, any carry over questions get a point knocked off every time a hint is given.

I meant abreviation in this case. I was doing a lot of copy/paste and moving things around.

I'm totally sucking this round, but I'm not the only one, at least. XD
I've seen #71 somewhere, maybe in my boxed up collection, but for the life of me it can't think of it. When it comes to this round, I too, suck.
