This cinema was originally built and run by Litchfield Theaters, from South Carolina. A few years later they also opened the Middletown multiplex across from the Towne Mall. Opening films were in mid-Dec 1982; Tootsie (on 2 screens) Peter Pan Still of the Night Dark Crystal Rambo

The “video store” concept was originally the arcade/game room off to the side of the lobby and was converted to capitalize on the popularity of the VHS explosion of the time. Later converted to offices during National Amusements ownership.

Litchfield was a great company to work for – they had a 401k for full-time employees. (not just mgmt)
