    This was my hometown theatre ........

    Movies used to cost $1.00

    It shut down in the mid 80's

    Today it's a Piano store / restoration shop.

    I'm glad they kept it almost exactly the way it looked back in the day.

      Hardy Girl....Too funny about the Roxie. I tried to show up there once for a movie, but didn't realize it was a 10PM show, so kind of glad it didn't happen for me. That area is a very seedy part of town. Hector, did they used to have couches when you went to the Roxie? I have never been inside the theater.

      Back in my day, at Serramonte 6 in Daly City, they had movie specials for fifty cents before 2PM. I remember watching the Terminator for fifty cents. The crowd got rowdy after word got around, and they decided to stop showing the films for so cheap until eventually the theater closed down.

      To do list:
      1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
      1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;

        Jessica, no, no couches inside the Roxie, just plain gum-filled dirty ol' seats, lol.
