50sSNIPES commented about Proctor's Twin on Oct 19, 2025 at 8:50 am

This has a very strange later history.

The RKO Proctor’s expanded to five screens in September 1980, and expanded to seven screens in March 1985. It was once known as “RKO Proctor’s Fiveplex” and “RKO Proctor’s Sevenplex” at the time.

Unfortunately, when Cineplex Odeon took the theater over in 1986, five of its screens closed and was DOWNGRADED back to a twin, and was renamed the “Proctor’s Twin” without the RKO branding. The theater closed on November 1, 1990 with “Night Of The Living Dead” in Screen 1 and “Sonny Boy” in Screen 2.
