Is there anyway to remove all the multiple answers? I'd answer it (if had more time) but it's a bit of an eye sore post and needs too much sifting through, you'd get richer answers with qualititative (open ended questions) research anyway, unless you need to quantify your data afterwards.

a) America
b) Europe
c) Asia
d) Bollywood

21. How do you feel about horror movie remakes?

None of these answers really apply for me. I tend to judge remakes on an individual basis. Sadly becasue movies are all about money, big studios tend to only remake films that will draw a large audience, and hence often remake movies that don't necessarily require a new treatment. There are hundreds of deeply flawed old movies that had a fantastic premise, but lacked technical proficiency, or the sufficient budget to succeed. I'd be a lot more excited if Hollywood decided to go out on a limb a bit more often.

a) They ruin the original story
b) The new adaption of the story is better
c) It�s better with the new special effects

22. Does having a final girl(the lone survivor at the end of a movie) give a better effect?

a) Yes
b) No

23. Do you like comedy-horror?

I feel 'comedy' horror is a bit of a cop out, but it really depends on the how well written it is. Put it this way, I still expect a comedy horror to scare me.

a) Yes- It makes it less scary
b) Yes- I like a laugh
c) No- It makes it less scary
d) No- I like horrors to be serious

24. What kind of antagonist(bad guy) do you prefer in horror movies?

I like them all, but space aliens are my favourite.

a) Zombies
b) Vampires
c) Werewolfs
d) Aliens
e) Mythalogical Creatures
f) Serial Killers
g) Giant Animals or bugs
e) Children
f) The unknown

25. Why would you laugh at horror movies?

a) Because it�s a nervous laugh
b) Because it�s unrealistic
c) Because of the way people die

26. What kind of gore do you prefer?

a) Realistic gore with lots of special effects
b) Gore with an unrealistic amount of blood
c) Hidden gore( Where you are given the idea of gore happening but do not actually see it)
d) Gore from older movies where they used creative ways of making the special effects

27. What kind of phobia movie affects you more?
a) Bugs
b) Snakes
c) Diseases
d) Sharks
e) Aliens
f) The Unknown

28. Which kind of serial killer movies do you like better?

a) The psychological serial killer (like Saw)
b) The slasher (like Texas Chain Saw Massica)
c) The whodunit (Where you are guessing the killer all the way to the end)

29. How do you like suspense being used in a horror movie?

I think it takes a little more than the below options to achieve real suspense but...

a) Music
b) Silence
c) Close-ups
d) False suspense (When something that isn�t scary makes you jump because of suspense)
e) Unanswered questions

30. What kind of myths or lore used in horror movies are scarier?

Again this would be down to the quality of the production rather than the type of myth.

a) Childhood myths
b) Urban myths
c) Cultural myths

31. Is there a particular director of horror movies you prefer?

a) Yes
b) No
c) I don�t really care

32. Who is your favourite horror movie director?
