Red Rock 11 Theaters

I lived in Henderson, then N Las Vegas circa 1980 to 84.
At the time, the Red Rock 11 was a primo showplace. There were not yet the 20+ megaplexes that were to come. Two, four and six-plexes were the norm. So, 11 first run choices was an embarrassment of riches to we film fans.
It was a cool layout as well. Built like a Disneyesque mini town of the early 1900s. All red brick and black wrought iron, you literally strolled through a replica of small town mainstreet, the various auditoriums entrances serpentined thru out. The ceiling was a faux sky with painted whisps of clouds. Great date place. You would want to get there early just to hang around.
I also saw many of my fave movies there:
Omen II, The Fury, Scanners…too many to recall them all.
I DO remember going to some midnight show there and coming out to find someone had smashed my car windshield with a coke bottle. Bastard.
The parking lot was a real bitch to navigate, though. Due to the multiple expansions of screens, the parking lot snaked all this way and that. Pain to get out of there quickly.
But, still, was a cool environment for families and dates. Real sad end being so vandalized, then shuttered. Like many great places, the neighborhood goes to hell and dooms them.
