I've set a Sci Fi quiz before, so I've checked back and am pretty sure there are no repeats in this one. Answers relate to Sci Fi movies (none too old and are in colour and have sound). Not too hard I think but as usual two answers per person per day until I see fit to say otherwise. Quiz setters decision is final so there'll be no stewards enquiries. Any points awarded are for kudos only and not exchangeable for Green Shield stamps or shares in Newcastle United Football Club...

Needless to say they're both wrong but in one case very close...I think you may have given the answer away there. The Bo Derek movie sounds intriguing....is it from your secret video stash??

Only got the first on tape. It was peddled as Sci-Fi but I think I should dust off the player to verify it is a worthy sequel.
