How to play this prompt
Strategy notes specific to “Name a horror movie” — not generic advice.
On movie prompts, recency is a trap: the newest hit is what everyone types.
Lead with The Babadook. It's the kind of answer that makes other players say 'I knew that!' after the reveal — which is exactly why they didn't type it. A Quiet Place works the same way if you want a second bullet in the chamber.
The trap is The Exorcist — correct, but it's the reflex answer for a reason: it's the first thing the category suggests. Psycho is the same story. Typing either one puts you shoulder-to-shoulder with most of the player base at 10 points.
Notice how The Conjuring (Rare) outscores The Exorcist (Plankton) without being obscure at all. Rarity isn't about difficulty — it's about what the crowd overlooks.
Build yourself a mental shelf for this prompt: Get Out, Scream, A Quiet Place. They're different answers, same rarity neighborhood — and that neighborhood is where dives are won.
Rated 4/5 difficulty — only 11 banked answers, so matching the bank is genuinely hard. Precision matters more than speed here.
