I think Barry Peak might still be at Nova Cinema in Melbourne.
Here's an article about Chris and Barry (from 2017 though).

(Quote) I agree with you, I saw both at the Valhalla back in the day.
-
Yes, with a hand drawn NRC printed on it! Worst poster design ever, for the Worst films ever made. Rather appropriate.
-
Lovely original daybill!
-
I was talking about the Valhalla in Richmond, but that image was from the Glebe Valhalla. I sued to go to the Richmond Valhalla regularly to watch classics and revivals.
-
Who knows what was going on with distribution back in those days? The owners of Valhalla might have known a cheap printer? They may have sold posters at the cinema (hoping for a cult following). Perhaps it was part of the distribution agreement to h…

I wonder whether the Valhalla would have just relied upon their calendar to promote most films they didn't actually have a financial interest in? Many fridges at the time had a Valhalla calendar on them. Here's one from Sydney with the aforementione…

(Quote) Yes, I know that when I worked on films back in the 80s, a lot of them were made independently and had posters printed by the filmmakers even before they had distributors. Often they'd use a random printing company who did a good rate…

I know it's a movie ticket, but it has a hint of a Wonka Golden Ticket too.
-
.Just looked and it doesn't bother me, I think the logo update was about time though!
-
Unfortunately (or fortunately), I've never seen it.
-
Trove is a trove of interesting images!
-
233 - Battle Beyond The Stars (1980)...I knew I'd remember it eventually
-
Thanks for the update...and the headache!
-
I'm glad you're organised! If I was doing that they'd be all over the place.
-
Amazing posters for films I'd never heard of!
-
Might be a bug in the latest software update.
I clicked on My Watch List on the web page on my laptop (I don't currently have any items in MY WATCH LIST, then it took me through to the Mobile Site. Screenshot below, not where I expected t… -
...and I recently watched this!
-
I think in all probability they just didn't think of adding a blank space!
-
I was approached at one stage to work on World Safari III, but it never eventuated...probably just as well!
I'd say that the 35mm prints would have been blow ups from 16mm, common practice in those days. -
Don't you hate it when you know you've seen those image before but you can't remember where they're from?
-
Didn't attend any screenings, but that was certainly a popular genre of films back then. An easy way to make a regular income, if you knew what you were doing.
-
Is 335 Dracula (1931)?
-
The US theatrical one sheet could be any old film, at least wth the Australian poster you know what you're getting!
-
Can't wait!
-
Absolute stab in the dark - is 444 Tora Tora Tora (1970)?
-
It's not a problem for me, a film that's obscure to some people might not be obscure to others. I like a challenge every now and then, keep throwing in "well regarded" films every now and then, keeps us on our toes.
-
I vaguely remember the title of that film.
-
I assume it was banned in 1938?
-
Things like that are why I bought the 4K version, then I can watch the original whenever I want to. Did you know there's an abridged version that also shows up on TV? It deleted the entire Pottersville section, because that part is still under copyr…
