It's an old theater that has real character. I read reviews on here with people complaining about lack of stadium seating and the sound quality. If you want stadium seating and Dolby Digital 9.1 THX DTS rumble seat sound and HD DLP video, then go to Atlantic Station and pay $16/person. If you want a place where you can go and watch a movie with a small crowd and no one really cares if you prop your feet on the seats in front of you (unless of course someone's sitting there... they might prefer that you didn't kick them in the head) then this is your place. Be let's be honest... the real reason to go is to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show on Friday nights. If you want to see a bunch of people dressed in leather and lace and running around in their underwear, this is for you. If you have never seen RHPS with audience partici....pation, you should find someone that has or just paint a red V on your forehead (for RHPS virgin) and go on in. People are really into this movie and you should be able to find someone that will share their props with you and help you have a good time. There are often squirt guns, so if you don't want to get wet, take a newspaper and sit near the back. Sitting near the back also lowers your chances of being h1t (h1t is an inappropriate word?) in the head by a roll of toilet paper. There will be lots of profanity and people yelling. If you don't have a sense of humor or you are homophobic then this probably isn't your scene. If you want to really get into there are websites that tell you what props to take and teach you some of the audience responses. It's a fun time.
Pros: historic atmosphere, Rocky Horror Picture Show on Fridays
Cons: Cash only, no credit cards.
