The Diamond Theatre launched in late-1914 and closed around 1932. This has nothing to be confused with the Diamond Theatre in Hazleton, which operated around the same time.
The Irving Theatre launched on September 2, 1923 with Taylor Holmes in “Dust” (unknown if extras added). Movies ended at the Irving in 1942 but continued to operate as a popular special events house until the end of the war. It was dismantled in June 1953 and demolished in August 1957.
This operated as early as before World War I. The Crystal Theatre however, did survive a flooding event in June 1916, which prompted hundreds to shelter inside the Crystal auditorium.
The Milford Theatre opened as early as 1924, and closed as a movie theater on October 25, 1962 with Rock Hudson in “The Spiral Road” along with the first chapter of the “Batman & Robin” serial, an unnamed cartoon, and a newsreel. It reopened as a seasonal performing arts theater afterward.
The Casino Theatre opened in 1968 as a seasonal family-oriented theater, running a mix of first and second-run films. Its format would later flip to just first-run films only. In its later years, films were shown four-to-five-days-a-week instead of the usual seven-days in the 1980s.
The Hersker Theatre once originally planned to convert the original 650-seat single-screener into a 500-seat twin-screener with 250 seats in each screen by the end of 1988, but that idea was scrapped.
The Millville Theatre opened its doors on October 11, 1947 with “Stallion Road” (unknown if extras added). It was renamed the Roy Theatre in 1949, and closed on April 1, 1956 with the matinee of “Yellow Rose Of Texas” along with an unnamed Three Stooges comedy and four unnamed cartoons. The last normal attraction is “Three Stripes In The Sun” one day beforehand.

Opened in December 1999 as a replacement of the four-screen Cape Cod Mall Cinema Center. After Regal closed the theater in January 2025, Entertainment Cinemas took over the theater who reopened the theater several months later.
