This eight plex was built in 1994 and was added outside of the mall. This theater was very elaborate, with a chandelier in the spacious lobby, along with an arcade across from the concessions. The decorations are similar to those in the West Ridge 6 theaters.
In 2005, the much larger Wallace 16 was built (with stadium seating), and this theater promptly became a discount second run house, which it is today.

It was my understanding that when Wallace (Hollywood) built the new 16 screen theatre that they intended to close this theatre but ran into lease problems with the shopping center owners. There was some sort of clause that they could not open another theatre within ‘so many miles’ of the mall. So they opted to keep it open and reduced it to discount status.
