There is a guy selling small bits of the original sign on eBay : Just search ‘Commack drive in theatre sign’ . He also has photo evidence with the broken bits!

Does ANYONE know: did this movie theatre plaster their old movie posters on the ceiling of the lobby ? I went out really far (we were from Huntington) with friends to see Mommie Dearest in the very early 1980s .This kinda looks like the theatre we went to . Only that once. If not DOES ANYONE remember a movie theatre in the Stony Brook / Port Jefferson area that did this : use their old movie posters as wallpaper ? Thanks

Comical note on the movie “633 Squadron” : when they released “A Hard Day’s Night” in 1964 , “633 Squadron” was the unfortunate co-feature: SO, when the Beatles movie ended – the theaters emptied out - NOBODY stayed for “633 Squadron”. LOL .

Bloop commented about Ticket from 1979 / 1980 ..the APEX of the Rocky Horror craze. on Mar 6, 2022 at 11:20 am

This was a local and WALKABLE (to many) decades old neighborhood theatre . It is a SHAME that there are so few comments on here !! One would think that on Rocky Horror ALONE there would be 50 comments . Oh well…..
