The AMC Glen Lakes 8 opened in 1988 as the AMC NorthPark 8. Unfortunately General Cinema already operated two theaters in the area with similar names: the popular NorthPark 1 & 2 and the NorthPark 3 & 4. After GCC put up a fight, the name was changed to AMC Glen Lakes 8. AMC then put out a new motto for its new name: "So you won’t be confused when searching for the best."

The AMC Glen Lakes closed on May 5, 2006, the same day that the new AMC Northpark 15 opened.

This Theatre has been closed for about a year and a half now.
I believe it is still sitting idle today.

I went there several times after it first opened, loved the seating!
Hated how the theater was positioned though, and the road getting into it was a bit dodgy as it was situated close to a a very busy intersection and you had to be careful that you didnt get rear ended by someone.

Damn megaplexes! I saw John Woo’s “Hard Boiled” here as part of the USA Film Fest. Also saw “The Rocketeer” and they had a carnival in the parking lot to tie in with the film. Last flick i saw here was “Jarhead” in 2005.
