The inspiration for our $5 Double Features came from back in the 1970s and 1980s at random movie theaters you could pay a few bucks and see two movies back to back that were amazingly awesome, if not particularly new or even recent and maybe not well-known. And the genres could vary: action, science fiction, adventure, creature features
So fast forward to 2025, and we have our own $5 Double Features. Initial offerings were Stallone vs. Schwarzenegger and Bruce vs. Chuck. Those pairings speak for themselves. There will be more that are similar, but there will also be double features that are more recent, and of different genres, and maybe appeal to different audiences. Maybe in the afternoon as well as at night.
