The movie companies require at least 2 weeks run time if you want to get their new movie, and to get a new release it cost between 50% to 65% of the gate admissions for that one movie and sometimes they require a 3 week showing for that new release. Then we show a second movie that can be between 5% to 20% of the gate admissions and then you get to add sales tax of 9.75% and there is not much revenue left at the ticket gate for the theatre owner. We could get different movies every week if we show 2nd run movies that are a month old or older, and not show a new release movie. but our experience says people want new movies mixed with a second movie that is second run. The bottom line is to be profitable business we need to sell food, sell food, sell food.

Because some people remember the days when Drive-In Movie Theatre's did charge by the car load. If we play old movies, the type that is on a DVD at your local store we can acquire a nightly or weekly fee to show that movie and charge a per car load price. But if we show new movies that are in first run Theatre's across the country then its a per person price. The movie companies invest many millions of dollars to produce a product and until they deem it to be unmarketable in a first run Theatre it is always admission per person. This is how movie companies stay in business and making a profit. Sometimes we may do a special event for an organization that wants an old movie, and then and only then do we enter into a price per car or a very reduced rate of admission. Pass on the word, this is one of the most asked question by the older Generation that remembers per car at the Drive In. What they don't remember is that those movies were 1 or 2 or 3 years old if they were A list movies or they were B or C list movies if they were newer and just did not have a draw as a A list movie so the Movie companies was trying to get their investment money back any way they could and would let the Drive In Theatre's have them for a car load admission price. That coined the phrase back then as a "Thats a Drive In Movie" which sometimes meant it was not an A list movie. Movies were not generally shown on television until the late 1960's except for special events like the "Wizard of Oz" once a year, or "Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer" once a year.

Headlights must be off during the Movie. No Exceptions. Just because your lighting knob says your lights are off and they are not off then you are in violation. (Many cars have automatic lights these days and its not always easy to understand how to turn them off but I strongly suggest that all drivers know how to turn off the lights on their vehicle.)

Due to Covid-19, we will not be providing portable radios until further notice. We transmit the sound on FM stereo at 100.9 You may use the radio in your car, or we have a limited number of radios for a $3 fee plus your I.D. Please remember we supply the movie, and you supply the sound on your car radio, or rent a radio from us. Also remember all your vehicle lights must be off during the movie. NO EXCEPTIONS!
