CREATURE DOUBLE FEATURE

Specialty Definition: Creature Double Feature

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Creature Double Feature was a long-running syndicated TV series that broadcast classic monster movies through the 1970s and early 1980s. The movies broadcast on the show were taken from the classic Universal monster movies of the 1930s, the Hammer Studios films of the 1950s, Roger Corman's horror films of the 1960s, and Toho Studio' "giant monster" (kaiju) movies of the 1960s and 1970s.

Creature Double Feature usually aired on Saturday afternoons. Because it aired after the traditional Saturday morning cartoon time block, it introduced many younger viewers to classic (and not-so-classic) monster movies.
