RE: [CineTV Contest: Memories] Long Summer Nights and My First Drive-In

I'll go you one better. Way back in the mid fifties I watched Them!, a black and white horror movie at the drive in. I might have been six years old. To see those giant ants crawling across the screen and screeching in the dark... terrifying. Wouldn't have been the same if I'd seen the movie in a theater.
That was one of my first movie experiences. Unforgettable. Of course, that drive in doesn't exist anymore.
I enjoyed this blog very much.

Yeah, those early childhood memories do stick with you. Especially when they're so "new". I still get the itch to go to a drive-in now and then simply because my first experience was so profound. Not many of them left, unfortunately. The land became worth way more than the movies in most cases.
