Russ, pretty sure “ROCKY HORROR” was in number one most of the time…I wish i could just get those pictures from BARRY that he has on ROCKY HORROR….Just to make copies..
Like Nick it became my favorite at age ten on the big screen at NATIONAL HILLS THEATRE in Augusta,70mm pretty sure for awhile at least it was reserved seating.781 seats.
REGENCY I,II and III long gone dark was finally bulldozed down inside the mall. pictures are on GENERAL CINEMA MEMORIES on Facebook. Today is a sad day…
was talking to one of the remainging projectionist and he told me something i don’t think i knew. National Hills was suppose to be a Dimension 35 theatre.
i was talking to friend whose dad ran movies down the street at the Imperial;he loaned several of his nice one sheets to Joe Goode[owner]for pictures playing and never got a single one back…Guess JOe never used NSS.
the cinemas certainly changed my life…..
