Opened as the Twilite Drive-In in 1950. Car capacity was listed at 300 cars. Name changed in 1981 to the Starlite Drive-In (Not to be confused with the Starlite Drive-In that was located on Ft. Jackson Boulevard.) The Starlite Drive-In was owned by Wilby Kincey followed by ABC Southeastern Theatres.
The theatre closed in 1985 and has since been demolished.
Any further information on the Starlite would be appreciated.

Plitt must have sold this theatre when they took over ABC Theatres that year.
Could be that Plitt just didn’t want the drive-in so it was closed. Looking at an aerial you can barely make out the footprint of the drive, at lot of trees have grown in the area. Doing a street view you can see was is left of the driveway where it is fenced in.
We worked out of the Charlotte office at ABC,so Columbia was a town that had the same DM. I bet they got rid of all the outdoor screens.
The drive-in itself is now Food Lion @ 3901 Two Notch.
