Movie Pairings
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 |

Brothers of the Head & Freaks
Elvis, you seen Brothers of the Head yet? You'd dig the music - way authentic proto-punk. |
Rock 'n' Roll Highschool - Dazed and Confused
|
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.... |

Great matchup though - great minds think alike I suppose |
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.... |
Surviving the Game & Avenging Force
Exterminator & Death Wish Bad Moon & The Howling |
one I always do is
Black Christmas followed by A Christmas Story |
Martin - Bruiser
Two very different movies, but enough paralells to make for an interesting double feature. |
Psycho Cop 2 & Maniac Cop :D
