The Pierce Point Cinema 10 was opened on July 31, 2008, at Amelia Plaza by the Greater Huntington Theatre Corporation(GHTC).
Like all other GHTC locations, they offered all you can eat and drink popcorn, Coke and ICEE.
The Charleston Gazette notes that Derek Hyman is a third-generation owner and president of GHTC. GHTC’s history goes back to 1926, formed by brothers Abe and Saul Hyman. Abe was Derek’s grandfather and Saul his great uncle. When the depression started the brothers sold off their smaller theaters one by one.
The corporation was later handed down to Abe’s son, Jack Hyman (1930-2009), who ran it until the 1990’s when he gave the reins to his son Derek. Mr. Hyman noted, in the 1970’s, they started building theaters with six or seven screens and “In order for us to compete, we had to add screens.” After Derek Hyman took over in the 1990’s.
The Pierce Point 10 Cinema was closed on April 30, 2024. It was taken over by Republic Theatres and reopened in November 2024.
