This triplex opened in August, 1976 when Randall Park Mall opened, and continued on until late 1993, when GCC closed this theatre. However, the architecture of this theatre left much to be desired, especially if you have problems climbing stairs. The box office was on the upper mall level, then you climed a flight of stairs to get to the concession stand and the three postage-stamp sized screens, and you climbed another flight of stairs to get to the rest rooms.
Diamond’s Mens Stores occupies the cinema space now, and in 1999, Loews opened a 12-screen Magic Johnson cinema at Randall Park Mall.

I’m wondering if anyone has any pictures of the interior of the mall from the “read ramp year” (c 1980 – 1995) – after that it was a blue ramp and that was about the death of the mall. I’m working on a project and would love any stills anyone has managed to keep especially showing the common areas (concorse, store fronts (especially ones that don’t exist anymore), long shots, etc). Love the classic pics of the exterior of the theatre… forgot about Connie Shoes. Remember Davy Jones Locker, Chess King, Jeans West, County Seat… ah, those were the days… anyway, any help would be very much appreciated.
The door to the cinema storefront entrance mentioned in a previous post currently stands open in what became a former Diamond’s display window. Unfortunately, the redolent air of heavy water damage emanates from said door, permeating the entire area of the mall. It must be a squishy mess in there.
My most un-favorite marquee change was RPC. Three sets of double sided signage.
What happened to Mike? I know he went to Southgate but never talked to him after ‘82. He was always very cool with me. I liked his style.
Is Jack Lynch still with us?
He was such a nice guy.
Nice photos, Mr. Budnick. I’m guessing that the photos were mainly in Winter and Summer 1988 (since I can tell that posters for Eddie Murphy Raw and The Blob appear in them).
Renewing link.
I figured out that posters for Bambi and The Rescue also appeared in some of the pictures with The Blob.
Mike went to Southgate, the Parmatown and then to Mentor Mall. I last talk to him about a year before the theatre closed.
