Apparently this theater was opened by United Artists.

Notice how the neither the building nor the marquee make any mention of the name of the theater or the operator.

A rather awkward name for a theater though; one would think that, at a minimum, something simple such as Highway 90 Cinemas would be less clumsy.

Before UA’s bankruptcy and merger into the Regal chain, the chain, unlike many others, did not always use United Artists or UA to identify its theaters either in directory ads or as a part of a theater’s signage, though the name would appear on door decals, the pre-show filmed segments, etc. A significant number of theaters that the UA circuit opened in the 1970s were simply known as “The Movies at ______”

This was built as a twin in the late 1970’s by MCM Theatres of Leesburg,FL. Four cinemas in the early 1980’s.

The Cinema 90 opened its doors by MCM Theatres as a twin on June 3, 1977 with Evel Knievel in “Viva Knievel” in Screen 1 and Barbra Streisand in “A Star Is Born” in Screen 2. It had an original capacity of 518 seats (with 350 seats in Screen 1 and 168 seats in Screen 2), and was first managed by Sheldon Masce.

The theater expanded to four screens in Spring 1983 (alongside a 19x12ft game room) followed by another two more screens in Spring 1985 bringing a total to six screens. Litchfield Theatres operated the Cinema 90 until United Artists took over in June 1987.

It became the Cinema 90 6 in Spring 1985, not 1990.
