During the late 70s, triple features of black exploitation films and/or horror films was what The Lincoln Theater was known for featuring. I know ‘cause I was there many times as a kid.

The Lincoln theatre still can and does show 35mm film. The screen and stage speakers for film are flown and are brought down for such events. Steve
