The theater is now the AMC Myrtle Beach Classic 12.

My grandmother remembers seeing the Demi Moore starrer ‘The Butcher’s Wife’ here in fall of 1991, and says that it was a 6 screen at that time. Does not remember if the theater was housed in a separate building from the mall though.

This theater is still called the ‘Colonial Mall 12’ although the name of the mall has changed to ‘Myrtle Beach Mall’. I would like to know if the theater was always attached to the mall itself, or if it was a separate building in it’s earlier days. I love that you can access the theater from inside the mall; this is usually only seen in much larger malls today. I spoke with an older usher on my last visit to the theater, who said that the theater was demolished in ‘05 and completely rebuilt. That’s what makes me wonder if it was a separate unit prior to 2005, or if he is mistaken and the theater just underwent major interior renovations at that time.
