Death Race 2000 was playing in 85?
Rocky IV/ Forced Vengeance would have made an awesome double feature!
Robbblog -- It was a second feature to LOOSE SCREWS, a newer Roger Corman title. The video boom was just starting to hit in 1985, but the older, more popular exploitation titles could still get playdates in urban action theaters (note THE MACK playing in one of the other theaters). Orion kept some of the blaxploitation films from AIP in theatrical circulation until 1987.
