What about older flicks?
Author: rongravy Posted: Mon Jun 15, 2009 9:07:57 am

I'd be happier if you guys could get older reels and show some good horror from back in the day. I think most people would rather hit the Razoback or the Pinnacle for newfangled effects like they have now.

You guys need a zombie weekend. A Romero-fest so all the freaks can come out.

Or a Cheech and Chong one.

My wife and I enjoyed Drag Me to Hell - like mentioned above, this is the kind of movie that is actually better at the drive-in.  I've always wondered what it takes to play older movies compared to new ones.  Using today's social media it is possible to connect with exactly the people who would want to attend specific older movies.  You can even have them pre-pay if you're worried about not getting enough interest.  You would have an army of fans willing to get out the word about being able to see their favorite films at your awesome establishment.  Here is a link to 50 classic drive in flicks from the 70's:  http://www.amazon.com/Drive-Movie-Classics-50-Pack/dp/B000AA4KLK

I have always wondered why the 112 drive in didn't embrace the true drive in feeling by playing old classic horror films, B-Movies, and Exploitation flicks.

There are a lot of older films (Night of the Living Dead, House on Haunted Hill, etc) that are public domain and would be free to use.
