The Eisenhower Cinemas 6 was opened by Litchfield theatres on June 26th, 1987 with the Chipmunk Adventure and Lethal Weapon sharing a screen, Gone With The Wind, Spaceballs, Dragnet, Roxanne and Purple Rain for the midnight showing. Grand opening ads posted.
mckramer is correct, the theater opened in 1987. I remember going to see “Full Metal Jacket” and “Revenge of the Nerds II” that July. The theater, sadly, has been demolished.
This theater has closed.
I worked here as a projectionist and usher when it first opened in 1987. The regional manager asked us to work on the construction crew installing seats, etc. that summer before it opened. The manager at that time was David Reamer, who later went to manage a theater in Austell, Georgia.
Location was taken over by Spotlight Theaters last June (2011).
You’re very welcome, Chuck. I don’t know why United Artists would lie about something like that. Strange.
Uh, with all due respect Chuck, Eisenhower Square 6 was opened in the early ‘80s, if I remember correctly though it may have been the late '70s.
I saw “Beetlejuice” (1987) and several other movies at this theater in the ‘80s.
Eisenhower Square 6 was also part of the Litchfield Theatres chain (as were Abercorn and Tara Cinemas, respectively) until their founder died in a plane crash; the chain was then sold to United Artists, which itself was then sold to Regal Entertainment Group.
