  • Today we checked out an Abandoned Regal Cinemas that I visited many times. This location closed in March of 2023 and is basically untouched after almost a year. The power and heat are still on. Take a full tour of this Abandoned Theater with power.

    I amazed the theater still has power after being closed for that amount of time. The 2 things beeping in the main lobby is an annunciator connected to the fire alarm which was the other thing beeping along with the battery backups. (I worked for a fire protection company) Damn animals spaying fire extinguishers ruining everything. I serviced fire extinguishers and that stuff is a pain to clean up. Do not clean it up with water as it will ruin everything because the chemical is corrosive.

      Very interesting. I noticed upstairs someone tried to mop it but it just seemed to smear it lol.

      @@BigCVlogs Yeah, all they did was mess the floor up with it. That smear is going to be permanent. We had our shop floor messed up when the nitrogen tanks started sweating and started to to create a puddle on the floor. I mainly did fire extinguishers and know very little about the fire alarms I know what an annunciator looks like.

    I grew up down the road and worked at this theater after i graduated in 2014 until 2017. My older sister was a manager here from 04 to around 09, i spent many days helping them open in the summer and spending the day watching movies after.
    My earliest movie theater experience was in this theater watching Finding Nemo with my family. My sister was able to get us in the day before pirates of the Caribbean 3 came out to watch it because they had to build up the film reels and test them before opening. The last movie i saw here was Thor love and thunder.
    I just drove by today, and the emergency exit door you entered through is padlocked now with the addition of one more, we knew they didn't latch properly. in my time there it was part of the daily opening checklist to make sure they were latched as we occasionally caught homeless people sleeping in the theaters.
    The locked private room you found was the concession stand stock room, nothing cool to be found there, it used to have wire shelving wrapping the walls full of candy, cups, and popcorn buckets.
    It was inevitable that this theater would be closed, it was too big for the amount of business it did. On week days during the school year we would consider it busy if we sold 100 total tickets before 7pm. The slowest day i ever worked was less than 25 tickets sold before 7pm. I used to read books in the box office during my shift because of how slow we were. They'd get on to us for using our phones during our shifts but never got on to me for reading, never made sense to me lol.
    Regarding the old surround sound equipment, it was incredibly dated when i was there and it looks like it never got an update after i left. That's probably why a bunch of it was left behind.
    It hurts to see all the fire extinguisher powder all over, especially in the projection area. It reminds me of all the times I've had to mop up there before a corporate visit.
    Inside each theater door near the ceiling is a time switch for the overhead lights in the theater, we would use them for cleaning after busy showings.

      Thats insane. Yes, I think the price didnt help. People would come out once a month because it was always $50 to watch one movie lol.

    I worked here. I believe this one opened around October/November of 1999. I remember watching Sleepy Hollow in #11 (the bigger theater you all went into). #12 is the exact same size.

    This is the Austell location and it closed out of nowhere which sucks because the nearest regal they redirected you to is like 40 minutes away. Very cool to see it explored abandoned as this was the go to theater I went to growing up the last time i went was in November 2022

    • @BigCVlogs

      Same. I lived in Austell my whole life, I remember going to see the first Pokemon movie at the old location behind the Austell Rd. Martins before they moved to this one. It did close out of no where. I feel like the only other Regal is in Atlanta or the one in Douglasville.

    That big electrical room you were in with all that loud humming is the main switchgear for the whole building. The SERVICE for these building are upstairs. They usually have
    277/480 coming in. Theaters take ONE HELL OF A LOT OF POWER!! I see huge stepdown transformers that step the 480 down to 120/208. Somebody is paying one huge
    bill per month for all those utilities. I was an electrician & we had the Regal account in the Chicago suburbs. The service in the one in Lincolnshire wasnt as big nore
    was the building anywhere near as big as the one in this video. I saw that ABANDONED SKY HIGH DRIVE IN in Addison Il & it had 2,400 amps coming in at 120/208.
    Theaters like I said take ONE HELL of a lot of electricity & AMPERAGE to run them. That gun looking thing you were holding looked like an air blow gun that you would use
    with an air compressor like they do at automotive shops & many peoples garages in their homes.

    ปัจจุบัน ปิดบริการเรียบร้อย
    I watched it and it reminded me of the old movie theaters, Forum and Chalermthai, as well as Major Hollywood, Chonburi Province, Thailand.
    Currently, the service is closed.

    Must be nice for these companies to abandon these places, that are too expensive for anyone to attempt to repurpose for a similar use or...maybe...a media editing facility of some sort.

    They left the equipment likely so that they can sell the location to another theater circuit like AMC, Cinemark, Alamo Drafthouse, or Movie Tavern.
