Post by: Marc82 on February 23, 2009, 02:22:33 PM
Post pics of old movie theatres here.

Here you can see how they bricked off the windows of what was The Queen Street Twin Cinemas in the Queen Plaza in Southington, CT. Cinemas closed sometime in the 80s. Site is now Dollar Tree.

Here's a pic of another abandoned theatre. This was the RKO Stanley Warner's Boyd Theatre, later known as Sameric Theatre, Sameric 3 Theatre, and United Artists Sameric 4 Theatre.

From 12/1971 to 1988, the Boyd/Sameric Theatre was owned by Sameric Theatres Co.  From 1988 to 3/2002, this theatre was owned by United Artists Theatre Circuit Inc.  This theatre was closed in 5/2002 by Regal Entertainment Group.
