I didn’t want to believe it was gone until I saw the Soul Cycle logo in place of the familiar “The Movie.” For the first time in my memory, Montauk has no movie theater of its own. I will wait eagerly for a new place to open.

Yes, it’s true. After 30 years it’s bye, bye. When I called the Theater the message referred me to the Cinema Cycle site. On there was more info. Tomorrow, 12/1 is the final, special showing. Subsequently they’ll be having a sale of spinning and movie items.

Was the shutdown permanent or just the usual winter hiatus? I’m going to call the theater and see what more I can determine.

Correct address is 15 S Edgemere St.

The theatre’s last movies were shown on November, 28, 2014. It shutdown rather than convert to digital projection.

Tinseltoes the problem is unless you are a subscriber to the Wall Street Journal online you can’t access the story. A synopsis please.

This theater was indeed built in the 70’s. I remember seeing the first “Alien” there. It became the town movie house after the Montauk Manor Playhouse closed.

I totally forgot someone on here took pics. I was racing my bike to catch the train last nite and went right past it. Had my camera in my pocket. The building is indeed very nondescript, almost the size of a small gentleman’s club.

According to the manager the season is generally April to October but others factors may influence those dates, particularly the availability of a film that he particularly wants to screen. He also said the theatre goes back to the 70’s which surprises me.

Can anyone shed a light on the approximate age/decade of this theatre please? I have a listing in the Film Daily Yearbook;1941 edition, of a Montauk Theatre, located in the township of Montauk Point, Long Island which has a a seating capacity of 350. It is listed as ‘Closed’ in that edition and doesn’t appear in either the 1943 or 1950 editions of F.D.Y.

I’ve lived in the Hamptons every summer for nearly 30 years, but I’ve never seen a movie here. I’ve seen it, though. An adorable little “mom and pop” movie theater that shows first-run movies. I’m glad it hasn’t closed down.

August of 1974 when “Mame” went on wide run after the Music Hall, the Montauk is listed as a UA. Anyone ever know anything about UA operating it?

Whenever for I am in the Hamptons I drive past this place, but have never gone in. I am going to make a point of doing it this summer.
