Bangor Drive-In to Re-Open This Summer – What Was The Last Movie That You Saw There?
The Bangor Drive-In on Outer Hammond Street/Route 2 in Hermon is being totally refurbished by Cinema Bangor LLC, the same company that operates the Bangor Mall Cinemas!
Both movie screens are being repaired, it will feature state-of-the-art digital projection and FM radio sound. New rest rooms are being built, and so is a brand new concession stand that will feature pizza, hamburgers, fries and everything else that goes along with a great movie experience!
In a press release, Carol Epstein of Cinema Bangor LLC said, "We look forward to offering the next generation of movie goers this classic experience.”
The Bangor Drive-In opened back in 1950, and closed in 1985. The target re-opening date is July 1, 2015. We wish them the BEST!
Meanwhile, we all have those wonderful drive-in memories! Sneaking our friends in by loading two or three into the trunk of a car. Missing most of the movie with a girlfriend in the back seat.
The last movie that was shown on the big screen at the Drive-In was Rambo: First Blood Part 2.
I remember seeing Ghostbusters there back in 1984.
