Scores

1. 4 and above.

   Dead as a dodo. You came in with the best intentions but you're really just slasher movie fodder; the equivalent of the annoying, unprepossessing teen who winds up a meat-hook within the first 20-minutes.

2. 8 and above.

   Congratulations. You survive .. but only just. A few of the questions caught you out, left you a little bloodied, possibly traumatized. Thankfully it's nothing a few years of nightmares and therapy won't mend.

3. 10 and above.

   Sole survivor. You dodged the fiendish, murderous questions and outwitted the dumb but aggressive ones. Your reward is a sequel, Slasher Quiz 2: The Mouse Goes Mad. Which is annoyingly still in development and awaiting funding.
