Grand 18

Thanks Chuck.. You’re correct, the theatre is still listed and is still operating. The number you are referring to in the header, however, is for the administration/office of this particular theatre. The number that they advertise to call for showtimes… 1-888-94-FILM… no longer lists showtimes for this particular theatre. If you type in the Winston-Salem zipcode, it automatically says that the closest AmStar Cinema is the ‘Four Seasons Grand 18’ in Greensboro, NC (a neighboring city).

I would like to update my last comment. Apparently due to tough times, ushers now ‘check in’ to each movie every 45 minutes or so. Very annoying! They walk in with a clipboard, do a headcount, walk around the cinema, check the exits, sometimes stay to watch part of the movie, then walk out. They do this several times during the film. VERY distracting! Not sure if new management has taken over or what, but the AmStar Cinema toll free movie recording line no longer lists this theatre, and doesn’t offer showtimes either. There is a total of 4 concession stands at this cinema. One on each side of the multiplex, a large one at the entrance, and a small ‘bistro/cafe’ style concession stand to the side of the entrance. During the week, the ‘cafe/bistro’ style concession stand is the only one open! Maybe they should lower ticket prices.

This is by far the most popular theatre in Winston-Salem, the parking lot is overflowing on weekend nights. Prices are outrageous, screens are not digital. Theatre is clean and beautiful though, concession stand serves pizza and some other specialty foods, 9 screens on each side of the complex.. very easy to ‘movie hop’ ;–)
