A lot of sex and a lot of pleasure and a lot of nothing

Edie: Girl On Fire

Old haunt

The late Pequa Theatre, once located in Massapequa, New York. The last film I saw there was Full Metal Jacket in first run. Throughout the 70s I saw a lot of horror matinees (Countess Dracula, Mad Doctor of Blood Island) and the occasional midnight show (Invasion of the Blood Farmers), but also some swell prime-time fare (Kelly’s Heroes, The Sicilian Clan). Its outer design was pure 50s Populuxe; inside there was a ‘Smoking Loge.’ About twenty years ago the structure was razed to make room for a car dealership. Click image to enlarge.
