The Riverside
Drive-In Theatre in
Vandergrift,
PA is presenting two nights of
vintage British horror films in the form of the aptly-titled Drive-In Super
Monster-Rama.This is a great
opportunity to see some of your favorite thrillers under the stars.
The theater is on Route 66 and the phone number is (724)
568-1250.If you want to Google,
MapQuest, or GPS the theater, your best bet is to enter the address of it's
neighbor, which is Lee's Lanes,
2780 River Road,
Vandergrift,
PA15690.Lee's Lanes' (say that several times quickly) phone number is (724) 567-5963 should
you require it.
Gates open at 7:00 pm; first feature begins at 8:00 pm.Each film will be presented in 35mm with
trailers, cartoons/short subjects; food and beverages guaranteed to shorten
your life span will be available at the concession stand. Unless you're a
lip-reader or know the films verbatim, an FM radio, preferably a boom-box
device or similar, is required to hear the film's audio (remember, kiddies, carbon
monoxide will kill you).Admission is $10.00 per person each night
(excluding trunk-dwellers, though this practice is highly discouraged unless
you're kidnapping someone), and children 12 and under are free with parent/adult
guardian; you may even elect to camp out at the
Riverside for an additional $10.00 a night,
with breakfast offered (and hopefully security against Jason Voorhees).Although there are no showers, you are free
to bring towels and washcloths to wash-up in the restrooms (this is a
horror of a much different kind).Since
this is at the drive-in, hopefully the standard annoyances that regularly plague
moviegoing, such as cell phone calling/texting and infant nursing, will be
relegated to their respective automobiles and not impinge upon your enjoyment
of the onscreen mayhem.
The theater's website lists many rules, the most
obvious (you would hope, anyway) of
which is parking based on automobile size - Hyundai Accents have first dibs on
the first few rows while Ford Explorers and other such behemoths are relegated to
the rear; no vulgar, profanity, or loud voices (thank God my friend Matt lives
in Texas); usual disposing of trash; users of laser pointers will be ejected
(though there's nothing on the list about laser bras);
no fireworks on the premises (what kind of crowds do they get, anyway?),
etc.What about hanky panky?
