In addition to theatres, General Cinema also had bowling alleys in the 1950’s and 1960’s - this had been a bowling alley that was rebuilt into a back-to-back twin cinema. The Cinema I & II was opened March 3, 1965. Both auditoriums were split in the early-1970’s making it a quad, and it closed on January 11, 1993 and has been demolished.

On April 10, 1985, the Warren Cinema City became a scene of a murder of a man and the wounding of another man after an argument involving two groups among youths waiting in line outside the theater broke out. Patrons who were waiting in line to see “Beverly Hills Cop”, “Porky’s Revenge”, or “Friday The 13th Part V” among others on “Dollar Night” also witnessed the fight in horror.
