Animal-Vegetable-Mineral-Abstract: The Pants Memorial Game
help
The chairperson selects an object/idea/whatever and announces whether it's animal, vegetable, mineral, and/or abstract. The others have to ask questions to figure out what it is. Whomever guesses the object correctly is given the chair for the next round; repeat ad nauseam.

Is is "Eraserhead"?
Kim - no.
I'd suggest you try narrowing it down a bit further!
Released before 1980?
 
DrQ - yes.
By the way, Kim, if I remember correctly, "Eraserhead" is in black and white, not colour.
Does it involve vegetables in a leading role?
Was it released after 1970?
"Plan 9 From Outer Space"
 
"Invasion of the Body Snatchers"?
Sci-fi?
Is it intended as a comedy?
I now give DrQ the kiss of death by saying I think he's right.
Ibid - no. Inkspot - yes. DrQ - no. Chalky - no. Kayl - no. Breadmaster - to a point.
BM's kiss worked, it seems. By the way, DrQ, you don't need to put   in Stance any more, that problem seems to have been fixed.
Rocky Horror Picture Show?
Is it horror?
Did it win an Oscar?
Inkspot - no but you're on the right lines. Raak - see Tuj above. Boolbar - no.
Boolbar - ...but it was nominated for one.
The Mummy?
The kiss never fails.
Breadmaster - no.
Young Frankenstein?
Ibid - no.
The Exorcist?
Carrie?
The Little Shop of Horrors?
ah ... just realised it can't be, because you said No to Ibid's question about vegetables in a leading role. What the hell - I'll post this anyway.
The Amityville Horror?
The only Oscar nominated horror (for musical score) from the 70's that we haven't already mentioned that I can recall.
LSoH
Chalky... it was also made in the 80s.
Huxley - no. Chalky - no. Ibid - no.
Wol - no. (sorry for missing you first time round!)
Inkspot was pretty close with Rocky Horror.
Singalongasoundofmusic?
Shirley Thompson vs. The Aliens?
Raak - no. Huxley - no.
Summer of Secrets?
( I am assuming I'm only allowed to ask one question at a time )
Huxley - no.
Feel free to ask as many as you feel like, as long as you don't end up flooding the room with a million films!
Shock Treatment?
darren] I'll do my best not to, but I'm on a roll here!
Huxley - no.
You're still along the right lines though.
Is it really an oscar nominated horror comedy from the 1970s?
Since I can't think of any I haven't already mentioned, I'm puzzled.
Ibid - yes, it really is.
And all those characteristics are in the IMDB entry for this film. It can't be *that* hard to get!
Did Brian de Palma have anything to do with it?
'cos I can't remember the name of the film...
Fade to Black?
Huxley - no. Ibid - YES.
Ibid, I think you've got it, you just need the title!
Phantom of the Paradise?
Surely not
Phantom of the Paradise?
Simul'ed - but I'm not retracting, as Hux has just done!
That was an abbreviated "surely it's not Phantom of the Paradise is it?" thankyouverymuch.
Sisters?
(just in case)
[Hux] OK - I'll fight you for it ;-) Or, you have Sisters and I'll have PotP ...
You keep your grubby simul' posting hands off my guesses.
Huxley and Wol - CORRECT!
Yes, it was Phantom of the Paradise. So, Huxley is in the chair for the next round (sorry Wol, Huxley did post first!).
Gosh - that was quite exciting
Well done Huxley on the photo-finish. Better luck next time, Wol - and a worthy third place to Ibid the pacemaker.
