Well the one I really remember was “Attack of the 50 foot Woman”, and I was looking up and around for days after that one! One Eyed Cyclops
was another big screen favorite. I guess I just dated myself…..
Anyone have more pictures of the Sunrise Drive-In. I am making a Lionel O gauge layout from our old trains and I want to build the drive-in as close to real as possible. I already have the house. Thanks
I only remember the farm from when I was 5 or 6 until I was 10 or 11 when we sold it. I remember going out the back of the property to a dirt road that ran parallel to Sunrise and we would buy eggs and other things from the farmers on “farmers road” as we called it. Don’t remember the real name. Then we would head on over to Entermans (my best part of the trip) and buy cake. I do remember watching the drive in screen from the front steps of the house, for it was bed time right after the first show.
My family had the farm (white house with blue roof) directly across the street from the Bayshore drive in. At night we would sit on the stoop and watch the movie without sound. One of my relatives read lips really well as a fun thing. We would cross Sunrise Highway in the daytime which was not very wide or buisy and play on the solid metal swing horses which were hung with chain. If you stood in front of them on full swing it could kill ya I guess. I also remember the round spinning platform with the pipe you would hold onto and run as fast as you could then jump on and spin. So much for safety back then eh? Good thing lawyers were not so desperate in the 60’s. On Sundays we would get cake from Entermans right down the street. I was only 6 at the time and lived at the playground in the Bay Shore drive in. What a life it was.
