Thanks, Allistair! That’s the address. Sorry for missing your query, robboehm. I can get a photo if it would help (in it’s current state) as I live one mile from the location. Allistair, I’m just a few years older. I wonder if we ever fought over the same poster, lol!!

Allistair, I don’t have any pictures, but I went there often. Second run house - prints were usually beat up, but it was a fun place to go to and I loved it; they also gave away movie posters when they were done with the run of the picture. I have a few (On Golden Pond, Song of the South, Disney’s Peter Pan, That’s Entertainment Part 2). The building is still standing - google maps shows it as a travel agency now.

Loved this Drive-In. Went as often as I could (I remember a double feature of The Godfather and Love Story!) There was also a Starlite Mobile Home Park next to it (still there), and the Starlite Lounge, and the Starlite Carwash (still there). I wonder where “Starlite” came from first? I’m guessing the Drive-In.

Wondering if the close date is correct, or if there is/was another Hoyts Regent; reason being that the poster for the Beatles “Help!” has it showing at the Hoyts. “Help” was released Aug. 25, 1965; but the Hoyts closed it doors a year earlier in June of ‘64. Was there another Hoyts theatre?
