Here’s the game. Create double features based solely on the titles of the movies. Content is completely irrelevant. Titles only. They can be humorous, nasty, appalling, whatever you want. Examples:

_Bambi_ and  
\*The Deerhunter

The One\* and  
\*The Others

Love! Valour! Compassion!\* and  
_What’s Love Got To Do With It?_

Knock yourselves out.

Yes, but they are either obscure or foreign films. I stopped after Seventh Sign because there was no “eighth” movie that fit. I was sticking to mainstream releases in recent memory, i.e. movies people have generally heard of, that fit the “first, second, third” form.
