Kameo was a hangout as a child growing up in early 1970s Brooklyn. The Kung fu films and Black Exploitation films dominated the screen. It was a reflection of that era. Unfortunately, the Kameo was a victim of urban decay. Kameo will always be a part of me. I don’t understand why “people” allow neighborhoods rot and grandiose buildings like “Kameo” fall into ruin. There is nothing unique about cineplexes. No intimacy. May God bless us!

I remember seeing asian kung fu films 1972 – 1974. Those were the good ol' days. I saw the Exorcist there. Wow!!! I miss the real cinema days. The building is beyond mesmerizing. God bless its foundation!!!
