1. The Dietrich Theater

Reviewed By UriusT - Vilnius, Lithuania
The Dietrich is awesome, and I'm so glad it survives. This little old theater is run well, with all kinds of movies and festivals running regularly. They get foreign films, art films and plenty of blockbusters too. The small town vibe reminds you of days gone by. I remember as a child going to see Star Wars at the Dietrich after it relaunched. Most recently a less impressive Birds of Prey, nonetheless our experience was lovely all the same. It's such a friendly place, and quaint, with a love of film among the operators which is refreshing.

3. Evergreen Drive-In Theatre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 13 reviews
Reviewed By eightwednesday - Morgantown, United States
I love coming to movies at Evergreen. It's $10 (cash only) per person to get in and it's like you've been transported back in time to a relaxing atmosphere where it's totally fine to have a large tub of the tastiest popcorn for dinner. The concessions do take credit cards, which is good because I can't help but to blow all my money when I get to the head of the line. The movies are great--a good combination of new releases and classics. The staff have generally been wonderful and seem happy to be there. Love supporting this business.
