Score list:

A - 2 points if the movies are from the same decade*
B - 3 points if the movies are in a by-year sequence (example: 1977 + 1978)
C - 4 points if the movies feature same actor(s)/director
D - 5 points if the movies are from the same year
E - 6 points if the movies share a similar theme/story/setting
F - 7 points when both movies are available on DVD or Blu-ray
G - 3 points when only one movie is available on DVD or Blu-ray

H - 10 points deducted when movies are paired solely because of similarities in title and don't have anything else in common
I - 10 points deducted when listing its sequel

* does not apply when B or D is in session

The perfect Double Feature score would be 22. Please post your Double Feature with a appropriate/witty Double Feature title  :smile: I'll kick off the game with:

Day of the Animals (1977)

Score Charts:

01 - 20 - Joe the Destroyer ~ Christopher George vs. Nature double feature
02 - 18 - retrorussell ~ Vampire double feature
02 - 18 - claws ~ Abducted by Aliens Double Feature
03 - 15 - claws ~ They only come out at Night Double Feature
04 - 10 - Joe the Destroyer ~ Introducing Mr. and Mrs. B-Horror double feature

A failure like Coke II. Ah well, it was worth a shot  :bluesad:

Joe the Destroyer


retrorussell

Vampire double feature:

Once Bitten (1985)
Fright Night (1985)

18 points?

Next: Pieces (1982)
"O the legend they say, on a Valentine's Day, is a curse that'll live on and on.."

Joe the Destroyer

Introducing Mr. and Mrs. B-Horror double feature (featuring husband and wife combo Christopher George and Linda Day George)

Pieces (1982)
Mortuary (1983)

A meager 9 points by my reckoning.  I didn't score it for section E since the two films only have genre and actors in common, plus they are in the same bi-year sequence.

When I count scores for your Double Feature I get 10 points with the new category "G"

B - 3 points if the movies are in a by-year sequence (example: 1977 + 1978)
C - 4 points if the movies feature same actor(s)/director
G - 3 points when only one movie is available on DVD or Blu-ray

Unless Mortuary happens to be on DVD and I somehow missed it?
