We got to watch 2 movies for $6 each, it was a great deal. The movie did stop playing in the middle of the first movie, but they got it fixed right away. I suggest this do anyone traveling in the area.

Lovely old fashioned drive in saw the latest film for $6, had nice ice cream. Went to the 8pm film very few people there. Hope they get more customers or they will close down. That would be a shame.

Drive-ins are nearly extinct, but this one in Barstow is still going. Super cheap and a super great experience.

For anyone like us who has never been to a drive-in, this is brilliant. Great setting, cheaper than the regular theatres and true to its name.
