CORRECTION: Seating capacity for both auditoriums seated 600 totaling 1,200 seats.

Only the original STAR WARS movie played here first-run on July 1,1977 at High Point’s Martin Twin.

“THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK” & “RETURN OF THE JEDI” did not played first run at the Martin Twin. Those two sequels to Star Wars played first-run at High Point’s Capri Triple and not at the Martin Twin.

By the late-1980’s the Martin Twin became a discount cinema under Carmike until its closing in 1995.
