Mountain View Mall opened theatre-lessly in 1979. In an expansion announced the next year, Nor-Cal Theatres - operators of the neighboring Encore and Fine Arts Theatres in downtown Bend - built a non-descript 880-seat quad theater. The theater opened April 3, 1981 in that expansion joining Kmart which had opened two days prior on April 1, 1981.

Act III Theatres Circuit took on the venue on April 20, 1993. It closed for a refresh in early 1994 and would become the Act III Mountain View 4. Act III was purchased by Regal Cinemas in 1998 with the name of this venue changing to the Regal Mountain View 4 officially on January 8, 1999. In 2000, the venue’s policy was downgraded to that of a discount, sub-run theatre with the 10-screen Old Mill being the place to see new films.

The Mountain View Mall limped into the 21st century with initial 20-year leases ending and nobody allowed to sign extensions due to SIMA Corporation’s purchase of the facility in 1998 and subsequent announcement that the interior mall would be eliminated. Regal was allowed to ankle the location, closing October 11, 2001. The Mountain View Mall was restructured at its 25-year mark as the Cascade Village Shopping Center. For all intense and purposes, the former Regal Mountain View 4 was demolished.
