When was the last time you went to a drive-in movie?

Kathleen Plumer
Back when Jaws came out, at the Fishkill Drive-In, where ShopRite is now.

Joe Sheerin
I saw Rosemary’s Baby, completely by accident, 11 years ago, somewhere in Pennsylvania. ~Joe Sheerin, Cold Spring

Beth Dimilia
At least 10 years ago in Hyde Park. It was probably a Batman movie.

One reply on “On The Spot”

  1. Ah, the good old days; Every summer we went to the Drive on Route 9 in Fishkill where ShopRite now stands. There was a playground with a slide, see saw, monkey bars. We always arrived long before dark. The one movie I remember (not surprisingly) was Psycho. Later as adults we went to the Overlook in Poughkeepsie. Thanks for the fond memories :-)
