Value Cinemas

Marcus Theatres has a strong hold on the Mid-West. It is not surprizing to see Milwaukee see the opening of a new 10 plex here in May 1984. They are going into a nice suburban area with the Oak Creek 10 Cinemas. The seats are high "T" back seats and with something new, cup holders! Experts say the sight-lines will be second to none, in other words, at the Oak Creek Cinemas there will not be a "bad seat in the House"

Of course, this was the year of Dolby sound and these cinemas with have that and hearing-impaired enhancement for sound. Marcus Theatres was proud in 1984 to offer computerized ticketing and on cold nights a coat-checking area!

By 2010 it had been renamed Value Cinemas and was offering 2nd run movies on 8 screens. It was closed May 21, 2017.

Marcus Theaters announced today that it is planning to sell the Value Oak Creek Cinema at 6912 South 27th Street to The Ridge Community Church, which is planning to convert it to a second location.

The theatre has been in operation for 32 years and will continue to operate until the sale is complete. The Greenfield-based non-denominational church is planning to remodel the building and open its Oak Creek campus in fall 2017. Said The Rev. Mark Weigt, “We currently have several hundred attendees from this area of metro Milwaukee and we look forward to serving even more of our new neighbors at both our services and through volunteer work and community outreach.”

Milwaukee-based The Marcus Corp., the parent company for Marcus Theatres, didn’t announce a sale price for the deal, but the property is assessed by Milwaukee County at $2.45 million. The 21 employees at the Value Oak Creek Cinema will be offered jobs at Marcus Theaters' other locations, according to Marcus.
