The Cinema 4’s final closure is June 18, 2001. The closing remained as a mystery, but may be because of either sluggish business or poor conditions.

Although there is not a lot of information about its early life, this was originally a twin-screener according to an article released by Allentown’s Morning Call. It was also once the only indoor movie theater in Carbon County.

50sSNIPES commented about FunTime Cinemas Mahoning Valley 8 on Aug 8, 2025 at 4:48 pm

Construction of the theater began in mid-August 1995 by developers Ferdinando Iannarelli of Philadelphia and Dr. David Yanoff of Palmerton. This was the third movie theater to operate in Carbon County at the time, with the others being the twin-screener at the Galleria Convention Center in Lake Harmony outside Albrightsville and the Lehighton Drive-In (which of course operates seasonal). Prior to this theater’s opening, residents in Lehighton and Palmerton have to drive to Allentown, Hazleton, or the Galleria to watch movies.

Seven of its auditoriums housed about 200 seats while its largest housed 300 seats, and features installations of THX.
