Movie Pairings

[joshaube]

I know The_Return (I believe...) had a few of these paired up in a prior thread, but I can't seem to find it. What I was wondering was... what do you guys think are some good movies to pair up... ie-> watch back to back? To maximize the effect of both. Keep in mind while placing, which is the stronger film; If in a franchise, the sequential order; and the like.

The Relic and Mimic

Sling Blade and The Apostle

Session 9 and The Devil's Backbone

Demon Knight (tales of the Crypt) and Feast

6th Sense and The Others

Session 9 and The Devil's Backbone

Demon Knight (tales of the Crypt) and Feast

6th Sense and The Others

Nice list. I thinki would put Mimc first though, i think the relic leaves you with a better sense of satisfaction. Just my opinion though.

Wow, newb tailored one to my specific tastes..I feel so honored.

I would have to remember to wear my purple sash and black clothes with my white nikes, to get in the mood. For my snack: Vodka and some chocolate pudding. With Phenobarbatol.

Matrix - Equilibrium

GOOD one..............................

[joshaube]

is gryphon a thai monster flick ?

No, as it says on the banner, it's a Sci-Fi original movie. You get them every once in a while. They take a script, and beat their non-existent budget over it's head.

[Roderick Usher]

Brothers of the Head & Freaks

Elvis, you seen Brothers of the Head yet? You'd dig the music - way authentic proto-punk.

[Despare]

Rock 'n' Roll Highschool - Dazed and Confused

[The_Return]

Evil Dead - Re-Animator

Fall of the House of Usher - Pit and the Pendulum (Or subsitute any of the Corman/Price/Poe flicks, really)

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Orig.) - House of 1000 Corpses

Silence of the Lambs - Se7en

Theatre of Blood - Abominable Dr. Phibes

Deathwatch - The Bunker (Might want a Redbull or something before that pairing though...both are really good flicks, but brutally slow paced)

Nightbreed - Lord of Illusions (As much as I love these movies, the obvious thematic follow up to this pair would be Brokeback Mountain)

Alien - Event Horizon

Trilogy of Terror - Creepshow

The Fly (1986) - The Thing (1982)

Dog Soldiers - Aliens

Cat People (1942) - The Body Snatcher (1945)

I could go on for hours....

Sorry, I need to read before I post.:D

[The_Return]

Sorry, I need to read before I post.:D

Hahah...yeah, might help:p

Great matchup though - great minds think alike I suppose

[neverending]

These are actual double features I've seen in theatres, and the entertainment value of each was extremely high:

The Adventures of Robin Hood (Errol Flynn) - Robin & Marian

Casablanca - Play It Again Sam

The Casablanca/Sam pairing is particularly effective as Play It Again Sam opens with Woody Allen watching Casablance in a theatre, and as the end of the film rolls past, Woody's mouth slowly drops down in awe in reaction to the amazing film before him. It's a superb example of art imitating life as you realize YOU the viewer just did the same thing as you watched the end of Casablanca....

[paws the great]

Surviving the Game & Avenging Force


Exterminator & Death Wish



Bad Moon & The Howling

[knife_fight]

one I always do is

Black Christmas followed by A Christmas Story

[The_Return]

Martin - Bruiser

Two very different movies, but enough paralells to make for an interesting double feature.

[paws the great]

Psycho Cop 2 & Maniac Cop :D
