  • <h1>Image - A single 35mm frame of an in-house promotional film that was screened at the original Panoramic Drive-in back in the 1950’s</h1> <p>Located in the south-east Melbourne suburb of Dandenong. The Dandenong Panoramic Drive-In opened on May 4, 1956 with Dana Andrews in “Assignment Paris”. In 1984 the drive-in closed and the property was used as a flea market. The theatre was closed as a drive-in for many years until it was re-built opening on September 19, 2002 as a twin screen drive-in named The Lunar. The re-opening films were “Austin Powers in Goldmember”, “Lilo and Stitch” and “Stuart Little 2” - notes Lost Memory.</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\")''(nioj.)(esrever.)''(tilps.edok=edok;\\\"kode=\\\"\\\\oked\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\"\\\\=document.write\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\a(h<e =r\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\f\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\a\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\lmoidtm:niienslo"+ "@ai1pbng.ood\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\cm\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ i\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\"\\\\lt=t\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\e\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\d\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\m>niien"+ "slo@ai1pbng.ood<cam\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/>\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\);;\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\=x"+ "''f;roi(0=i;(<okedl.netg-h)1i;=+)2x{=+okedc.ahAr(t+i)1k+do.ehcratAi(})oked"+ "x=(+<iokedl.netg?hokedc.ahAr(tokedl.netg-h)1':)';\\\"\\\\;x='';for(i=0;i<("+ "kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=kode.charAt(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.len"+ "gth?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'');\\\"=edok\";kode=kode.split('').reverse"+ "().join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
