Premiere Theatres Canada opened the Premier 3 in Milton on February 27, 1981 with “Fort Apache, The Bronx” in Screen 1, “Coal Miner’s Daughter” in Screen 2, and “Ordinary People” in Screen 3.
Closed on April 29, 1993. Screen 1 closed with “Who’s The Man?” and “House Party 2”, while Screen 2 closed with “Indecent Proposal” and “Sneakers”, and Screen 3 closed with “Boiling Point” and “Sidekicks”.
On January 18, 2015, the AMC Creve Coeur 12 became headlines after a 28-year-old University City man was killed in a targeted drive-by shooting around 15 minutes before midnight. The man was killed outside the theater.
The killings happened on February 12, 1973, with the Disney double feature playing on the day of the murders being “The World’s Greatest Athlete” and “Now You See Him, Now You Don’t”. When Torrance Police arrived at the scene, the four deceased bodies were found with their hands tied behind their backs and their throats being cut. Both Disney movies already ended at the time of the murders.
The four employees were identified as Linda Freeman, George Cernik, Guy Brown, and Clyde Felts.
On August 8, 1983, a violent vehicle collision between a Datsun truck and a Ford Fiesta killed a 60-year-old man at the Polar’s parking lot. Alaska State Troopers reported that a 36-year-old man was making a left turn when he unexpectedly and accidentally smashed into the Datsun that caused the life of the 60-year-old man. The passenger of the Datsun, a 59-year-old woman, was taken to a nearby hospital in good condition.
Simcoe also has two other movie theaters during its early history, which were the Capitol and the Lyric. Unfortunately I cannot find as much details about both theaters.
The original 60ft screen suffered damage by a fire on November 17, 1949. An engineer for the Crawfordsville Fire Department first witnessed the fire while doing a routine fire prevention check at the drive-in itself before it was quickly put out a few minutes later.
