Its has been turned into a office complex.

This theatre and the Town and Country 2 were only a few minutes apart.

This theatre was definitely built by Stewart & Everett, as it appears to be identical to a 4-screen theatre S&E built in Havelock about the same time as this one (the Havelock Cinema 4 was expanded to 6 screens by Carmike in 1987). To the best of my knowledge, the Cinema 4 in Aberdeen and the Havelock Cinema 4/6 were the last theatres built by Stewart & Everett Theatres.

Chuckl231 and NightHawk1: CINEMA 4 opened on November 23,1983 and it became Southern Pines/Aberdeen area’s first multiplex cinema under Stewart and Everett Theatres. It had the same identical structure as the other S&E buildings in Havelock(the Havelock Cinema 4 opened in December of 1983 under S&E and by 1987 expanded from 4 to 6 screens under Carmike Cinemas)and others in Jacksonville and Wilmington. The seating capacity was 950. Carmike Cinemas took over this theatre in 1986 and operated it until its closing in 2002.

I have the original ad from the November 23,1983 edition of The Sandhills Citizen/The Robbins Record from information on this theatre. Stewart and Everett also in Southern Pines operated the Town and Country Twin Cinemas just around the block on Sandhills Blvd. E-Mail:

What a way to open a theatre with the WORST movie of the 1980’s “D.C. CAB” with Irene Cara and Mr. T. yes that Mr. T!

Not to mention it open with the BEST gangster flick of the early-1980’s “SCARFACE” with one of the greatest actors of our generation Al Pacino!!!

The opening of the Sandhills Cinema 10 in 2001 was the demise and closing of both the Carmike Cinema 4 and the Town and Country Twin Theatres leaving a huge gap for the moviegoing public in Moore County.
