Super 422 Drive-In

The Super 422 opened on July 10, 1953 with “Siren of Bagdad,” two cartons and a Three Stooges short. On Sunday, July 19, 1953, the theatre was padlocked by police for illegally operating on Saturday. That got straightened out and the theatre was open the next night. Manos Circuit announced that the Super 422 would not be reopened for the full 1981 season and was discontinued after a movie marathon on July 7, 1981 with “Escape from Alcatraz,” “Dirt,” “Coach,” “Convoy,” and “The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave.”
