SCERA Showhouse
Orem, Utah
In 1989, Richard Cook, president of Buena Vista Pictures, said of the SCERA, "It's our favorite theater . . . it is a spectacular place to see a motion picture. It gives the kind of presentation that we wish all our films would play in. It's big, it's clean, it has wonderful sound, great sight-lines. And they've been so loyal to our company and exhibited our pictures for so many years.''

Reuel and Dolores Kohler remodeled an office building to create the Sandcastle
twin theater, which opened in September of 1976. The theater was
originally a first-run theater, but became a discount theater in 1980.
The Sandcastle closed on 2 March 1998. Part of the reason for the
closure was the lack of family-friendly movies. "We can't get
the kind of movies we want to play anymore," Reuel
Kohler said.* "The movies have really slidden downhill to a
new low . . . Just about everything has something in it that's objectionable
. . ."
