North Bay Mobile Drive-In: Kill Bill Vol. 1

Uma Thurman is the sword-wielding vengeful 'Bride' on a worldwide hunt for blood over a near-successful assassination at the hands of her former gang and their boss, Bill (David Carradine). This highly anticipated 2003 classic was in many ways a homage to Tarantino's favorite action flick from the Orient that came out of the 60's and 70's... Bursting with vibrant hues, insanely over-the-top fight scenes, quirky charact ers, intentionally melodramatic music and dialogue. It was a film made with the Drive-In experience in mind! THIS IS AN R-RATED FILM! Please be aware it contains content that may be unsuitable for the Under 17 crowd.

We're a mobile DRIVE-IN, keeping the authentic experience alive as best we can! We project a big 30 foot wide image on the side of the Old Hamilton Theater building (closed for many years now) and transmit the audio over the FM band (88.3FM) just like modern drive-ins. We operate totally via donations and even have a small concession snack bar at each performance, in addition to raffle prizes and special presentations during the intro and intermission segments!! COME JOIN US and KEEP THE DRIVE-IN ALIVE! 

Drive-In Tips: 
Arrive early if you plan to park and watch from your car! There's lots of space chairs and blankets in front of the cars. Pre-show runs 15-20 minutes and starts at 8:30. There will be a 20 minute intermission and raffle. Please observe a 3MPH SPEED LIMIT when driving in the parking area. Children are welcome, but we ask you supervise them at all times. Same with pets, we welcome them but they must be on leash. -- The access to the parking lot CLOSES when the movie starts, so please do not arrive late and expect to watch from your car (lawn chair/blanket late arrivals are OK). We get a lot of 9:30 and later arrivals lately and it's just not fair to those who got there on time or earlier to let more cars in at that point. 

Drive-In Etiquette: 
PLEASE KEEP CAR LIGHTS OFF during the show. If you have a car that cannot be parked with the radio running without lights coming on, you MUST PARK OFF SITE and go the lawn chair route! NO EXCEPTIONS. During the movie, please keep talking and walking around to a minimum. We ask folks to refrain from smoking close to other cars or attendees. 

Snack Bar & Raffles: 
DONATE for SNACKS at our Concession Stand equipped with popcorn, hot dogs, candy and refreshments! There's usually themed cupcakes and/or other treats plus A RAFFLE with awesome prizes!! Raffles are held during intermission and usually feature a movie-themed prize-pack!... And always - Small bills greatly appreciated at the concession stand.
