I remember seeing Vincent Price in “The House of Wax” in 1954 (in 3-D no less), and it scared the shit out of me. I was only six years old at the time. I loved the Metro Theater. Also remember seeing “2001: A Space Odyssey” there in 1969. It was a great place to see a movie.

I remember seeing Alfred Hitchcock’s classic thriller, “Psycho” in 1960 in this great theater which featured a fabulous dark balcony where we used to “neck” in the back as teenagers. From late 1969 til early 1971, I lived in an apartment around the corner on Calle Duffaut and spent many an evening at the Paramount, since TV really sucked on the island that time (before cable). Also remember seeing the classic, “M.A.S.H.” there.
