The REX was closed down sometime earlier this year in January and was recently purchased by a church group. The last owners (Five-Star-Cinemas) don’t have anymore information listed on their website.

Not sure why someone stated that this closed as Chaska Cinemas. Here is the original article (with some good noted history of the theater), which mentions that it definitely closed as the Chaska REX.
