The New Amsterdam is closed in 1987 while other theatres on 42nd street continue to offer violent exploitation and sex flicks to undemanding and frequently deranged audiences. There are those who are nostalgic for this era in Times Square but I’m not one of them!

I’m proudly one of those who are nostalgic… not because I loved the grime and crime, but because I happened to spend a number of years among those deranged audiences (my buddies and were entertained by the ongoing commentary) watching those genre flicks. I stopped going when the theaters started smelling of urine!
