Beasts! Bedlam! and Babes!!!!

Welcome to this literary drive-in theater, a true labor of love that presents over one hundred drive-in flicks from the late 1950’s through the early 1980’s. Alright folks, let us set the tone for this adventure.  Dusk is falling over the area, and the neon lights of the drive-in and concession stand are calling out like beacons and ready for business. It is now time to fill in the name of your favorite drive-in, no matter the time period.  SEE, NOW WASN’T THAT FUN!!!  Nothing like a bit of individuality to add a personal touch to this experience. Now, it is time to sit back and enjoy this collection of crazed maniacs, freaky monsters, bad ass bikers, and sexy women.  And now my fellow drive-in fanatics, it is time to showcase the films.

HERE WE GO!!!!..............
