I went to many movies I was in college at SUNY NEW PALTZ. IT was a twin for a year.Movies were watchable with decent size screens.
Then they had the bright idea to make it a QUAD!
Now it has to be ONE OF THE WORST MOVIE THEATRES! The front two theatres have only 5 rows of seats with THE SMALLEST SCREENS I HAVE EVER SEEN! The sound is also sub-par.
The back screens are a tad bigger but still much smaller then they used to be.
I do not see how they stay in business !
Do yourself a favor and travel down to Rosendale just 20 minutes from New Paltz and see a film in the Rosendale Theatre a TRUE GEM!
Yeah, it’s an oldie-chopped in half than chopped again- once part of a theater chain called “Cinecom” in the late sixties/early seventies. They also ran the Chester Quickway and the Squire in New Windsor. They used to show alot of foreign and independent films in the late seventies/early eighties-guess to attract the college crowd. Used to drive up from Middletown-they’d get alot of Woody Allen films and indies like “Smoke”, “Damage” and “Erotique” In the early eighties they played “Repo Man”, “Metropolis” and alot of other cool stuff.
Basic shopping center theater. Was visiting here over the summer and the projector broke down twice. Heard the locals say that this happens all of the time at this theater. I couldn’t recall ever having this happen to me let alone twice during the same movie. Overall an okay experience.
