5 Movie Mini-Marathon
Suggest 5 films for a mini-marathon.
Not a film and it's four sequels - but 5 films that share themes and relate to each other, which could be viewed together and complement each other.
So far;
A Squad of Monsters
The Living Dead
Crichton's crazy theme parks
"Twas beauty killed the beast"
Post 9/11
Reality TV
Found Footage
Early Space Travel
Creepy Kids
Road To Avengers
Noir in Plaid
Swap The Hurt Locker for 25th Hour and we can talk.
Running zombies and slow zombies in the SAME top 5?! surely you jest. Romero deserves his own top 5, and Sauvini can join in for making an effort.
I like the idea of this list, but your initial post says not films and their sequels, yet there are a few in those lists that are direct (if not indirect) sequels and/or remakes...?
I think you could have found footage style films:
Blair Witch, Paranormal Activity, Troll Hunter, REC and Apollo 18 (off the top of my head)
@OwenHughes Yeah, I was trying to get across avoiding having Rocky I-V for example, but then broke my own rules(!).
You guys seem to have the gist of it though.
Early space age: The Right Stuff, For All Mankind, In the Shadow of the Moon, The Sound Barrier, Capricorn One.
