Ah, those were the days… when movies were often released as double bills in the theatres! Such fond memories!
Here’s a selection of double feature posters to feast your eyes on. As I hunted for cool examples to share I realised I had seen a fair few of these myself, when I was a kid in Tamworth.
Anyway, scroll through the posters and enjoy…
