严格讲　美国1930到1950年代 两部同时上映的影片中投资较小的叫B－picture  而有些银幕昂贵的首轮院线 是不放B片的  “DOUBLE FEATURE”恰恰相反 是连放两部B片的午夜场  目标消费者是荷尔蒙过剩的青年小伙儿 和无家可归的野鸳鸯  午夜场是60年代后才有的概念 可考证的第一部正宗的mid-night movie是Alejandro Jodorowsky老人1970年拍的《遁地鼠》(真想不到！)   好来乌golden age的B片 大多拍得拳拳到肉 题材十分躁动 所以后来常作为午夜电影来放　加上SCIENCE FICTION 的前缀　更让人心驰神往　

《洛奇恐怖秀》的片头曲名为《SCIENCE FICTION DOUBLE FEATURE》　歌中提到了12部50年代前的奇情与神怪电影 去年经营影评blog“大幻影”那会儿 尝试着翻译了这歌词 尽管只看过其中《地球停转日》《金刚》《黑湖妖潭》《世界之战》等寥寥几部 但依然研究得乐不可支  昨天在youtube上搜得影迷为歌曲配上看图说话的mv 甚得我心 第一个视频中唱到“怪博士”句 画面上配的是Béla Lugosi 老人   简直教人动容

lyrics of the "SCIENCE FICTION DOUBLE FEATURE"

Michael Rennie was ill.／The day the earth stood still
But he told us where we stand
那天迈克.兰尼生病了／所以地球也不转了
但是他至少告诉我们呆在哪儿

And Flash Gordon was there／In silver underwear.
Claude Rains was the invisible man.
那时飞侠哥顿也在那儿／穿着银光闪闪的紧身裤衩儿
克劳德.雷恩斯演的是隐形人儿

Then something went wrong／For Fay Wray and King Kong
They got caught in a celluloid jam
但是有些地方出了岔子／因为菲.薇蕾和金刚
他们在电影里出了乱子

Then at a deadly pace／It came from outer space
And this is how the message ran
那步伐是绝望的／他们发向外太空
信息也是如此传递的
 
Science Fiction - double-feature／Dr X will build a creature
See Androids fighting Brad and Janet／Anne Francis stars in Forbidden Planet
Oh - at the late night, double-feature／Picture Show.
科幻片儿~ 连场电影儿／怪博士制造科学怪人儿
白兰和珍尼大战机器士兵儿／安尼.佛朗西斯历险惑星儿
哦~! 午夜场！ 连场电影儿~  
      
I knew Leo G. Carroll／Was over a barrel
When tarantula took to the hills
我知道李昂.奇.卡若已经置身困境
当变异蜘蛛爬满了山陵

And I really got hot／When I saw Jeanette Scott
Fight a Triffid that spits poison and kills
并且我至今都热血沸腾
当珍尼.斯科特大战口吐毒液的“吹佛藤”

Dana Andrews said prunes／Gave him the runes
And passing them used lots of skills.
当戴安.安德鲁说蠢货给他快意
他可对付他们形同儿戏

And when worlds collide／Said George Pal to his bride
I'm going to give you some terrible trills／Like a -!
当世界之战迫在眉睫／乔治.派尔告诉他的新娘
"我要给你看些惊悚情节~!"／就像~!

Science Fiction - double-feature／Dr X will build a creature
See Androids fighting Brad and Janet／Anne Francis stars in Forbidden Planet
Oh - at the late-night, double-feature／Picture Show／By RKO O- Oh
At the late-night, double-feature／Picture Show
In the back row／At the late-night, double-feature
Picture Show／I want to go.
科幻片儿~ 连场电影儿／匿名博士制造科学怪人儿
白兰和珍尼大战机器士兵儿／安尼.佛朗西斯历险惑星儿
哦~! 午夜场 连场电影儿~／雷电华出厂~
午夜场 连场电影儿~／我要坐最后一排／现在就对你拜拜
