Description

A dark desolate theater, this cinema house used to be a favorite hangout for students of the Barker Boulevard and Willshere Row schools. Now it stands desolate and empty, waiting for new attractions.

History

Built in 1949 to accompany the popularity of science fiction in Malton.

The theater was at it's highest output from 1957 to 1979, but briefly went out of business in 1981 when Margaret Thatcher banned movies. In 1991 the theater was back, now run by a group of film students from the local college.

No longer the science fiction powerhouse it used to be, the cinema became a base for Troma films, until Troma was outlawed by parliament in 2007, ending when the zombie patrols stationed in Crooketon shot the owners of the cinema.

Barricade Policy

Extremely Heavily Barricaded according to the Crooketon Barricade Plan.
