Yes, it was open Jan 8 1970 showing X -rated films such as “COME SPY WITH ME” and “BEFORE HUNTER COMES”.Located on Hwy 77.
It opened in July 1968 as a general release theater. Its first show was “The Texican,” and a few weeks later it showed the Don Knotts comedy “The Shakiest Gun in the West.” The blue fare (X-rated) came later and led to a falling out between Cecil Quarles and his partner. It didn’t help that the screen could apparently be seen from Highway 77.
The address for this Drive-in is 1780 Highway 77; Attalla, Alabama 35954.
