Closed in 2000 by AMC and reopened by Globe on January 7th, 2005. Another ad posted.
Demolished between 2018-2019
This opened as Metro North Plaza 6 on June 5th, 1987. Grand opening ad in the photo section.
I was in school > Choir (required class) and over the intercom they announced that my mom was at the school to pick me up… and it was to meet up with friends from work > go out to eat > and see Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992)! Sold out showing and I remember it had better lighting/interiors than Dickinson. The seats were also way better than Dickinson’s low ones.
Saw The Fugitive (1993) back-to-back weekends. Recall there was a guy dressed up as the title character for Rocketeer (1991) screening.
Saw Man Without A Face (1994) here and remember this was one of the only theatres that sold ice cream and pizza (Pizza Hut).
AMC’s cg ‘Filmstrip-guy’ surfing around and ‘Silence Is Golden’ before the film.
Seemed like Dickinson had more of the action films and AMC had more of the drama’s.
I do remember it closing and then re-opening as a dollar house. I went to see something there and it was a shell of a movie house. It also had a dusty-cant-do-anything-about-it smell.
I remember seeing Showgirls here!
Sunday, December 27, 2009 is the last day that this theatre is opened for business.
I went to this theater recently. It costs $2. The projection was poor at best. There was at least 2 inches or more of the movie that was cut off because the screen wasn’t within frame.
They also did not clean up the theater in between movies.
This one re-opened not too long ago as a discount house.
