Creepy Halloween Trivia

How up are you on your Halloween movie trivia? Take this simple trivia quiz and find out! The easy level has questions that many of you gory-movie fans will hopefully be able to get. I have to admit, though, that even the easy questions are hard. After doing the research to make the questions, I can still answer only about four of them. But if you do well on the easy level, try the medium level that, if you've seen the movies and you put your brain to it, you can probably get. Then there are the truly trivial questions - Dracula's coffin level - for the smartest creatures of the night only. Let's see how you do!
Easy Level
1) In Scream, what kind of popcorn was Casey making before she was slaughtered?
2) What was the name of the camp in the original Friday the 13th?
3) Halloween H2O is what number (first, second, etc.) of the Halloween series?
4) What two stars in I Still Know What You Did Last Summer can be found on their own music album and weekly television show?
5) Father Jonas is the homicidal maniac in what movie?
Medium Level
1) Who did Sidney (Neve Campbell) of Scream say, considering her luck, would end up playing her in a movie about her life? Hint: This person ended up playing her in a movie-within-a-movie during Scream 2, so I guess she was right about her luck.
2) What is Jason's last name in Friday the 13th?
3) Who stars as Marion in the '90s remake of Psycho?
4) Who is the maniac killer in Shocker?
5) How many decades separated the two Carrie movies?
Hard Level
1) What was Halloween's original title?
2) In the original Halloween, in what year did Michael Myers murder his sister, which started the whole nightmare?
3) What highly educated actor made one of his earliest appearances in Friday the 13th as a counselor?
4) In the upcoming Freddy vs Jason, who plays whom?
5) Name both cameramen from the first two Scream movies.
