We played the trailer to “BOGGY CREEK” a G rated movie and a parent complained it was too scary!

This multiplex had the charm of a bus station. It had cement block walls, and this was the first OKC cinema not to have curtains over the screen. Instead of drapes, it flashed advertising slides during intermission. Seats were most uncomfortable, and there was always sound bleedover from other auditoriums.
I took a friend there once, and upon exiting the theatre he said (no matter what was showing) he never wanted to go there again. And he didn’t!

Thanks for the correction, Kevin. I must have missed 200 Motels but I’ll look for it in Netflix! —David Savage

My recollection is that the MacArthur Park 4 was the first multi-plex in OKC. I saw my first R-rated film there: “200 Motels” starring Frank Zappa. I distinctly recall hearing the movie playing in the next auditorium through the walls.

The building was converted at some point in the early 1990s into a night club.

One correction to the description above: the Westwood Theater is not demolished, but is currently, and has been for many years, a church.
