Opened April 15th, 1977. Tiny ad in the paper, which can be seen in the photo section.
I believe my first Theatrical experience was at this theater, my brother and sister took me to see The Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles movie. Years later i went back to see Beavis And Butt-head Do America.
It has been several years now but I still cannot get used to seeing that home depot there. The north side is where the entrance used to be. Mall 205 cinemas was never anything special. I believe it was a 3 plex from the late 1970s when the mall was built and had one fairly nice auditorium and two small unremarkable ones. The lobby was typical of the period with hues of orange and gold. There is an old episode of cops from the late 1980s where you can see the entrance in the backbround as someone is busted in a sting in the parking lot. My mom took me to see Police Academy 5 there in 1988 and later I saw Speed in the big auditorium.
