Milagro Cinemas

This discount theatre, which originally opened as Super Saver Cinemas 8, was taken over by Regency Theatres on February 3, 2012 and renamed the Silver Cinemas Norwalk 8.

Its history goes back to 1990 when the Long Beach Press-Telegram announced a December opening of the Norwalk Super Saver. Norwalk Town Square management built the $1.3 million building and Super Saver spent $2 million more on the interior. The first California Super Saver had already opened in Seal Beach in August of 1989.

Over the next 22 years the Norwalk location went by the names Super Saver Cinemas 8, Phoenix Theatres, Phoenix Adlabs, Silver Super Saver Theatres, Big Cinemas 8 and probably more. In 2009 the Los Angeles Times described its then owners, Big Cinemas as India’s largest movie theatre chain with 181 locations in the U.S.

In the interest of economy, it appears that none of the operators ever changed the signage and Super Savers Cinemas 8 always remained on the building.

Regency Theatres took over on February 12, 2012 and counted the Norwalk location as its 29th theatre in a still growing chain. It was closed in July 2022.

It was reopened by an independent operator as Milagro Cinemas on August 2, 2024. It caters for the highly populated Hispanic community and features 4K laser projection, Dolby Atmos sound, luxury seating a D-Box motion seats. Food is available as is wines and beers.
