Located on the outer rim of Huntingon Valley, in Upper Moreland Township, in the Marketplace at Huntingdon Valley shopping center, when this opened in 1991 it was, for a brief time, the theatre with the most screens in the Philadelphia metropolitan area. The theatre remained extremely popular until the new century, when Regal decided to open the Warrington Crossing 22 cinema – with its stadium-seating – about four or five miles down the road, which effectively spelled the end of this theatre, which finally closed about 2001.
Immediately after closing, it was gutted and turned into an LA Fitness Centre. By then, a once-golden theatre had been allowed to become run-down, with some screens being almost entirely stained and scratched.

This was Regal’s first entry into the Philadelphia market, and from here on in they just began building and building. It was one of Regal’s earlier builds, and definitely pre-megaplex, as the general decor was somewhat subdued. I remember reading that this was Regal’s first theatre to include a cafe.
I remember seeing quite a few movies here, and this drew good crowds back in the day. The theatres always seemed quite small, though…
Yes, the theatre auditoriums WERE small. VERY small, indeed! Their smallest seemed like little more than closets, creating what can only be described as quite a cozy experience!
This was my favorite theater. I saw a lot of movies here. This and Village Mall Cinema were my 2 most favorite theaters growing up! I was sad to hear it closed. But I have a new favortie now!
