Can You Match The Picture To The Disaster Movies?

Living on planet Earth, we're prone to a huge assortment of potentially devastating disasters. No matter what we do, this big ball we live on can crunch us like bugs in no time at all. We have to respect mother nature for what she can do to us. After all, that's pretty much the only thing we can do.

If anyone is unsure of how catastrophic a disaster can be, there's a whole section of cinema dedicated exclusively to disaster movies. From tornadoes to sharknados, your curiosity toward all types of worldly endings can be satisfied through one quick viewing.

Of course, the movies are no place to turn to for a full serving of reality. In many of these disaster movies, everyone normally tends to emerge from the fray relatively intact. By the end of it, our heroes are on their way to a life lived happily ever after, and even the most apocalyptic storm is on its way out.

However, in the real world, there's no guarantee of things turning out that way. On this side of the fence, humanity has no plot armor, at least none that we've clearly seen. The next huge storm can be our very last. So, while we're still here, let's see if you can match the pictures below to their disaster movie.

Question 1

Volcanic disaster

When a volcano erupts, and you're anywhere remotely near the area, you're essentially finished. In the real world, giant eagles don't descend from the skies and carry you away to safely. If you've seen the film behind this picture, you've seen a first-hand Hollywood dramatization of what it's like to be around a volcanic eruption and the resultant dangers. It isn't pretty, to say the least. If you're a real disaster movie buff, you won't have a problem matching this picture to its film.

Question 2

Brace yourselves...

We won't tell you which film this picture pertains to, because that would defeat the whole purpose of this question. However, we can definitely let you know that the disaster movie tied to this picture centers around a comet that is about to hit the earth. With the fate of the entire human race at risk, it'll take all possible preparation for the world to stand a chance against this enormous threat from space. Can you match the picture to the movie?

Question 3

Uh-oh...

Disaster movies keep doing well at the box office - well enough to warrant their making year after year. Indeed, there was a major Hollywood disaster movie released as recently as 2017. If you were sleeping on pop culture last year, you might have missed it, though you would surely never miss the world-ending storm it depicts. This is the kind of storm caused by a malfunctioning of clime-controlling satellites, so you know the impact is going to hurt. Have you seen this recent disaster flick?

Question 4

Another volcanic disaster

Now that we've had the comet-strike film as a break after that volcano talk, we think its high time to talk some more about volcanoes. They're a hell of a natural phenomenon, you know. If you haven't seen one erupt in person, you really shouldn't go through that much trouble to do so. After all, something tells us there's a lesson in all of these volcano movies... anyway, let's see if you can match this picture to its disaster film.

Question 5

Timber

This film goes some ways back, having been released in the 1970s. However, it was the highest grossing film released in 1974 and was nominated for 8 Oscars, so chances are you've encountered it in one way or another. The concept is simple, but terrifying: the world's tallest building is on fire, and everyone needs to be evacuated before they find themselves badly burned. Judging from this picture, it should be easy to guess the film - if you've seen it, of course.

Question 6

Disaster at sea

If the history of cinema has anything to teach us, it's that a lot of disasters can potentially come about in the real world. These range from the large scale (hurricanes and earthquakes) to the relatively small. The example of a small scale disaster as shown here is an oil spill. When that happens in the ocean, a lot can go wrong very quickly. If you've seen this high stakes, spine-tingling disaster flick, you'll surely be able to source the picture.

Question 7

Torrential downpour

As we mentioned above, there's a spectrum of intensity when it comes to natural disasters and natural disaster movies. Can you guess where heavy rainfall is in that spectrum? That's right, it's way on the light side of it. Still, you'd be surprised at how disastrous a torrential downpour can quickly become if water levels keep rising. There was a film released some years back about the sort of things that happen after a record breaking rainfall. Can you match the picture to the film?

Question 8

Looks like trouble

No matter who you are, being caught around a roadside explosion is a serious thing to go through. Even if you happen to be a nefarious - part of a group armed robbers, let's say - and lived life gangster style, you'd be stuck in the same peril as everyone else. That's the story of this movie, and it was a thumping thriller when it was released back in 1996. It thrilled the nightlights out of us, for sure. Can you match the pic to the film?

Question 9

It's finally happening!

When aliens come knocking on the atmospheric door of planet Earth, serious business is about to unfold. Both sides, human and alien, must unite in order to prepare. In other words, humanity needs to get its trousers straightened out and formulate a plan. In this film, we see what really goes down when an extraterrestrial race confronts our own. You've seen it, for sure, unless you haven't seen many movies at all. Let's see if you can name this epic sci-fi thriller.

Question 10

What's going on?

In this film, it's clear that something is happening, though it isn't clear exactly what. The characters just mouth breathe their way through floppy scene after floppy scene. A renowned director made this loose piece of work, and it starred renowned actors. But that didn't make it any less strange and long to watch. There are good ideas in it, for sure. Surely you know what's happening in this picture if you've seen the movie. Can you make the match?

Question 11

A doomed mission

In case you didn't know, Planet Earth has a center to it, and its boiling hot. It's so hot that it heats the entire planet. Thankfully, we can all hang out on the surface without paying any thought to engine room maintenance. Well, picture if something malfunctioned down there, and the only way to fix it was with humanity's help. What would happen? Maybe something like the events played out in this epic blockbuster. Can you match the picture to the film?

Question 12

Time to save the world

Like any marble ball floating in the ocean, our planet is always at risk of being eaten by something. Well, we have it a little better than a marble in an ocean, since there's no octopus big enough to eat our planet. Unless they're hiding something from us... anyway, the film pertaining this picture was a huge hit, and for good reason. There are shining celebrities in it, and they're shown saving the world from sure annihilation. Do you remember this one?

Question 13

A city in a predicament

This movie was among the first wave of the "smartphone-captured" found footage genre. Admittedly, while most of these movies were really terrible, the film pictured here did a great job of conveying the concept. It featured a menace of a large-scale disaster, one that moved on two massive legs. When you watch this movie, you don't actually get to see the culprit of the destruction until the very end. If you remember the horror, you'll have no trouble sourcing the picture.

Question 14

Zombies!

In the real world, when a zombie virus breaks out, it won't a spell a pleasant time for anyone involved. That hypothetical situation would be stressful, though apparently we like to think about it enough to keep making stressful zombie movies. In films like these, we live vicariously through anxious, doomed protagonists. If you've seen this classic zombie thriller, you had heart palpitations along with the rest of us who watched it. Can you match this picture to its film?

Question 15

The most horrifying disaster ever

As terrifying as these cinematic disasters are, they all pale in comparison to a certain agent of destruction. This disaster has no interest in judgement, or thinking in general. It only exists to kill, and it does so better than any other emissary of death. If you've seen this movie, you probably had trouble falling asleep that night. If not, you have a soul consumed by darkness. Let's see if you can match this horrifying picture to its mind blowing disaster movie.

Question 16

Our days are numbered

Disasters, as shown in movies, come in all forms. Sometimes it's a world-ending storm that descends from the sky; often it's rocks from space coming to kill us. In some cases, the destruction takes much more subtle canals. In this film, for instance, it strikes the pathways of creation by making barren every woman on Earth. With humanity watching its limited generations fade by, there isn't much to do. If you've seen this film, you'll remember that there's a small ray of light.

Question 17

Water...

So many disasters can potentially wipe us away, even when we're on land. From volcanic eruptions to earthquakes, standing on solid ground doesn't count for anything if the world is breaking around you. Still, as dangerous as land is, we're infinitely thankful for it. Because without land, we'd be stuck out there in the ocean, where we'd last an hour if we're lucky, any day of the week. The element of water is fierce and unforgiving, as shown in this film.

Question 18

When will it happen?

If someone tells you that the world would be experiencing a disastrous wide-scale disaster in the very, very near future, how would you react? Would you pack up all your belongings and move your family up a very old tree? Or would you laugh it off and continue working? It's an interesting question; if that person would be right, the best thing you could do is listen to them. This hypothetical situation plays out in the movie pictured here, and our guy ended up being right.

Question 19

The ultimate challenge

If you've ever been caught in a winter storm, you probably didn't like it. Aside from the cold creeping into your bones, the wind blows so hard you need to wrestle your own body over patches of ice just to get forward. When you're caught in that kind of weather, it could feel like you're on Mount Everest or something. Well, in case you didn't know, Mount Everest experiences its own storms, and that always spells bad news for anyone who happens to be on an expedition.

Question 20

Stranded

Going to space sounds like a lot of fun. If we could go to space and eventually land on a planet, that sounds even better. But, if we'd end up stuck alone on that planet, that wouldn't be good at all. It would end up becoming much worse with every minute. In this film, we see an intelligent man stranded on a nearby planet who uses every resource he has to survive. If you've seen the movie, you'll recognize the picture.

Question 21

We're all doomed...

Whenever aliens decide to descend from the skies and say hello, we really hope they'll be nice. If they are, they'll probably help us advance our evolutions by a million years by giving us some useful tips and tricks. If they aren't, we're probably all screwed. After all, aliens must be capable of some serious mayhem judging solely by the fact that they're able to travel through light years to get to Earth. This film clearly shows what mean aliens are capable of.

Question 22

He's the last one left

Like we mentioned above, everyone likes a good zombie movie, if only as a vehicle to experience some vicarious stress. As long as the reality of zombies is kept firmly locked within the frame of the screen, we'll be happy. Well, in the case of this apocalyptic film, we had the chance to live vicariously through Will Smith's anxiety as he survives alone in his city, post-zombie outbreak. Have you seen this one? Then you'll be fine to click the right button.

Question 23

This is it

None of us want the apocalypse to come. We'd rather just live our lives as long as we could. If we do come face to face with the end of the world, we'd at least want to spend our last moments with good company. In this film, we see a budding romance bloom at the most heartbreaking time: right before the apocalypse. Amid the death of everything, thank the gods they found each other before the end. Have you seen this one?

Question 24

The end of everything

Do you remember, a few years back, that everyone was talking about an eventual wide-scale destruction? It seemed like a joke as first, but as the expected time of the destruction came closer and closer, people began getting increasingly more nervous. Indeed, when the year of the prophesied apocalypse arrived, everyone was quite stressed out, though only some showed it. Thankfully, the day of the apocalypse came and went without much news. For any of us wondering how it would have went otherwise, we have this film to watch.

Question 25

Great peril, indeed

Let's have a third zombie flick in here, because why not? As we've said time and time again, everyone just loves a good zombie movie. The cinematic experience is made even better with a slight element of surprise to it. That's exactly what this film offered; an interesting, funny take on the classic zombie movie. If you've seen it, you'll likely still remember your favorite funny scenes. Well, let's see if you remember this frame from the film, and match it correctly.

Question 26

A strange epidemic

It's hard for us to say which natural disaster we'd never want to be caught up in. After all, each of them are so horrifying in their own unique ways. In the end, we'd have no choice but to adapt to whatever sort of destruction is coming our way. However, what we can do in the meanwhile is avoid cruddy films when we can, and this movie is certainly an example of that. You can probably identify this one by the memes.

Question 27

Love's dying moments

When you're on a huge boat, things can often feel like a dream. After all, you're floating in luxury over the middle of the ocean, something that would be a far removed fantasy for our primate ancestors. If you happen to find love on that same boat, then you're really living the dream. Of course, we all hope that your boat would never crash into an agent of destruction, like a huge iceberg. That might result in a 2 decade-long, global sobfest.

Question 28

Round and round...

Wind, in many cases, is more of a struggle to deal with than anything else. Sure, it's a necessary element of the planet that we won't take for granted. And, sometimes, a gentle breeze on a quiet day feels great. However, most times, wind only makes cold weather seem colder, and it tries to sway your body in ways that you don't want it to. In extreme cases, the winds can kick up and form horrifying death columns that descend from the sky and destroy everything in their path.

Question 29

Oh my god...

Let's play a game within this game. If you got to choose the disaster that would end your world, which would it be? You can't back out of the disaster, but the choice is entirely yours. There are several weather-related catastrophes, a few zombie outbreaks, and the type of disaster pictured here. Some would say that this entry offers a much more interesting way to end a world: a fire-breathing reptile as big as a skyscraper. You'll surely have no trouble with this one.

Question 30

That storm... It's...

Some people in this world actually make a living off of fighting storms. They do this by venturing off to sea and rescuing people on boats who are caught in storms. These masters of storms are greatly respected in our books, since they face the world's natural nightmares head-on for the good of humanity. However, in this film, these poor souls had to face the greatest mutation of a storm there ever was. A perfectionist would really enjoy this type of storm.

Question 31

Fire tornados!

Usually, when there's a storm coming your way, you'll be wanting to go in the opposite direction. In fact, during those times, there's nowhere else you'd rather go that the exact opposite direction of that towering menace of a storm. Because you think that way, we're going to go ahead and tentatively label you as a rational human being. Unfortunately, the characters in this film are labeled differently, since they travel in the exact direction of a deadly storm just so they can take some selfies.

Question 32

Way up high

You might think that the slew of disaster movies that keep coming out is a trend that's restricted to our times, but that's not really the case. In fact, there were plenty of disaster movies released throughout the 1970s, enough to warrant a spoof on all of them. That's exactly what this film is - a sort of Scary Movie to kick off the 1980's and parody other film genres. If you've seen this hilarious disaster movie, you'll have no problem sourcing the picture.

Question 33

Damn...

Earthquakes are bad, there’s no denying that. In fact, an earthquake can devastate an entire country, which is something that happens time and time again throughout history. In the film pictured here, the city of angels gets struck with the biggest history ever recorded. Thankfully (for a select group of people who happened to be in the right place at the right time), there was one faithful hero who made sure not to let his friends go. Can you match this one?

Question 34

Anything but the t-rex...

Think back to the last time you went to an amusement park. There were probably a lot of fun rides that you and your friends and family had the opportunity to enjoy. Amusement parks are a fun adventure, a great way to celebrate the summer. Just be sure not to have too much cotton candy and soda before a roller coaster ride! Also, it would be in your best interest to avoid the kind of amusement park pictured here. Because certain elimination just might be in store for you.

Question 35

Creepy aliens!

Let’s finish this off with a good 90’s alien flick. And we’re not giving much away there, because that’s obviously an alien in the picture. Or does that look like your uncle Eunace? Does your uncle Eunace also carry a plasma gun? We didn’t think so. Anyway, this film depicted a visit from extraterrestrials with not-so-friendly intentions. These creepy little bastards really gave humanity a run for its money. Let’s see if you can finish this quiz off with a win.
