Uintah Theatre
Vernal, Utah
On 29 April 1912, the New Uintah Theatre opened in the former Elk Building, which had been remodeled “along the latest moving picture house lines, with sloping floor, soloists platform, etc.” The ticket office was outside, under a “blaze of rows of electric lights.” Patrons of nearby towns appreciated having hitching posts on the premises. The New Uintah closed sometime prior to 1932. The E. W. Davis furniture store occupied the building before it became a piano store called the Henderson-Barlett Music Company.

Article Summary:
The University Mall Cinemas, the former Cineplex Odeon 4-screen theater at University Mall in Orem, was reopened on 4 April 2003 as a dollar theater. "Dollar movies are popular in Utah County because it is home to large families and poor college students, says Don Clifton, owner of University Mall Cinemas. He is confident his discount four-plex can co-exist with the immensely popular Movies 8, which is just a few miles away."
