This opened as the Pembroke Pines Cinema 4 in University Mall on December 13, 1978. In July of 1980, Loews Circuit took on the cinema becoming Loews Pembroke Pines Cinema 4. In March of 1994 Loews dropped the theatre. Sun Vista picked it up calling it Sun Vista Cinema 4. It closed as the Sun Vista Cinema 4 on February 19, 1995. (There is no chance that the name was “Pembrook” anything and there are no references to it ever being referred to as the Pembrook or Pembroke Pines Quad, either.)
I saw a ton of movies here. When we lived in Ft. Lauderdale, we’d have to drive all the way across town to come here, and sometimes we’d get stuck in traffic on Hollywood/Pines Blvd if there was a concert at the Hollywood Sportatorium. Though I’m sure there others before it, the first movie I remember seeing here was The Amityville Horror in ‘79. Went here a lot in 1980 (The Shining, Xanadu, Seems Like Old Times) until the Sheridan 7 opened, as they often showed the same films. We moved to Hollywood about 8 months later and I could ride my bike to the theater so I used to go see movies after school. The theater was all the way down the end of the indoor mall. The mall kind of sucked, but there was a great little record store right next to the theater that I used to kill time in.
