My wife and I spent the night at Landoll’s Castle in Ashland County and took the long way home down the backroads. I had put all of the locations of Ohio theaters into my GPS, so I could know if I was close enough to stop by for a visit. I didn’t have much hope for this one after striking out on a couple of obvious ones, but the Duncan turned out to be the star of the Friday trip. While I was taking pictures, one of the locals passed and told me I needed to buy it and reopen it instead of just taking pictures, so I said I’d pass the word on that Killbuck was hungry for movies again. Enjoy! I did. View link View link View link View link View link View link View link View link View link
Interesting. It appears that this drive-in is just north of the I-24/KY 95 intersection, but also that there is no access from I-24. From the overhead it appears that you could watch part of the movie while driving east unless the trees are in the way.
While taking my daughter to school this morning, I caught a quick glimpse of something in the lobby of the old Hiland Theatre building, so I stopped in this afternoon to confirm my suspicions. I’m going to have to give the building a walk-through to see if anything else from the heyday survived. http://www.flickr.com/photos/wallyum/3888321490/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/wallyum/3888320102/

The 6187 address takes you right to the sign if you plug it into Google Maps. Not very impressive, but I thought I’d mention it anyway.

I think this is the correct building. Not the same as the State Theater, which I also visited today.

That’s just another one of mine from a different site. ;–)
Light wasn’t the best today. I’m going to get back some time in the AM and see what things look like.
