Offed or Boffed?

As all horror film fans know, making sex and getting slashed up by the masked bad guy often go together (generally it's sex then death, but occasionally the other way round - see Jorg Buttgereit's Nekromantik).

So we've knocked up a quick game to test whether or not you can tell the difference between horror characters either doing the nasty or having nasty things done to them. Usually with knives.

Check the close-up shot, decide whether the person is being Boffed or getting Offed, then click to see the answer... (And keep score).

How did you do?


11/11
You are the 'Boff-master' - that is, someone who is very good at telling the difference between sexual ecstasy and the throes of death.

6-10
You are quite good at distinguishing between sex-frenzy and death-agony. More practice needed - perhaps by doing more murdering or having sex.

Less than 6
You either don't care about your bed-partner's pleasure or, to you, sex and death are so similar they're impossible to tell apart. Get some therapy.
