Saw many movies here during late 60’s & early 70’s. Remember seeing Woodstock, The Incredible two headed transplant, The Dr. Phibes movies and plenty of AIP Corman pictures.

The above address will map accurately to the location of the drive-in.

Here is a 1960 aerial photo of the drive-in, courtesy of Earth Explorer and USGS.

The Milford/Orange City Directory from 1939 shows the drive-in as “Drive-In Auto Theatres Corp” on Boston Post Road. In 1942 it becomes “Loew’s EM Theatre”. In 1956 it changes again to “Milford Drive-In”. In 1963 it’s “Northeast Drive-In” and disappears from the 1972 directory.

Recently, the Showcase Cinemas that replaced the Drive In were themselves closed down for a newer, bigger Cine-showbox-plex located in the CT Post Mall, a short distance down the road.
