In need of a movie night that’s somewhere else besides your bedroom or living room? Blue Starlite Drive-In has some options that might tempt you to get out of the house. Best part of it all, you won’t have to leave your car. This weekend, they’ll be screening The Breakfast Club, Cabin Fever, Dazed and Confused, Shrek, The Goonies, Shaun of the Dead, and so many more. Check out ticket prices. Keep in mind that the drive-in theatre is not allowing hatchbacks to be open, or permitting customers to sit in truck beds. Check out their website for details on ordering from the concession stand before making the drive to see your movie!
