As announced on Cinefessions.com this morning, there is another opportunity during week two of CSSC6 to earn some additional points! Week two runs through Saturday, June 10th at 11:59 pm.
"If you watch any foreign language trilogy this week, you’ll earn ten (10) bonus points at the end of the week. All three films have to be horror or sci-fi foreign films requiring subtitles, and all three have to be completed before the week is up on Saturday, June 10th at 11:59 pm. If a film is not clearly numbered, then please denote the three films you’ve watched this week to qualify for these ten bonus points. Each film will still score their normal points as well, meaning they’ll be worth two points each (one for watching, a second for following the Weekly Theme). The only difference is, at the end of the week, if you’ve watched a trilogy of films, you’ll also get an additional ten bonus points to add to your total.
Note that these three films can be part of a longer series. You’re only required to watch three consecutive films in a series to create the trilogy required for the bonus points (meaning you couldn’t watch the first, third, and sixth film in a series, but rather the fourth, fifth, and sixth film to qualify). Only ten total bonus points can be earned this week from this additional trilogy challenge, meaning even if you were to watch six films in a series, or three different, separate trilogies, you would still only earn ten bonus points at the end of the week. Also note that non-traditional trilogies will count for these bonus points as well, meaning, for example, something like Dario Argento’s Animal Trilogy would qualify. If you can show that it’s considered a trilogy (or three consecutive films from a longer series), then it counts!"
