Opened as a three screen in 1990 and was operated by Excellence Theatres. Taken over in 1998 by Carmike Cinemas and expanded to a seven screen. It is now a discount house since the opening of the Pineridge 10 in 2005.

Here is a little pre-Carmike 7 history:
The Morris brothers opened the Starlite Cinemas adjacent to their Starlite drive-in on March 15, 1972. Leon and Richard’s father from 1949-50 built the original Starlite drive-in, which would remain open.
The Pocatello Idaho State Journal said that the 698 seats were equally divided between the two auditoriums and the new automated platter system gave them the option of running the same film in both. There was parking for 120 cars.
On June 5, 1975 the Journal showed renderings for two 320—seat auditoriums which would be added to each side of the original building. In November a third screen opened, but it appears that plans for a fourth screen never materialized. 1988 was the last year R. Morris was listed as operator in the International Motion Picture Almanac. In 1989 Essaness Theatres was listed as the owner. Carmike built the other four screens in an annex after they took over.
