Mt Hood Theatre

I will be the hundredth person so say the seats are horrible. I don’t believe they have been attended to since I came as a child 30 years ago.

A historic relic in the middle of downtown Gresham. A great second run theater with reasonably priced movies. Did I mention the tix are $ 4 a movie? And they have $ 2 Tuesdays?
The theatre itself could do with a little updating — its a huge auditorium and there seem to often be more seats than people. Removing rows and adding tables — and serving some local craft brews would update its charm without losing the cool retro vibe.
Bathroom stalls could use updating and expansion. Two toilets is just not enough! And the wear and tear shows especially starkly in this area.
The concessions are reasonably priced and they offer great combo deals if you are hitting up a double feature. Now that we have a kiddo, we will probably frequent more often for the old school charm and the budget friendliness.

Nice people, affordable fun. I want to own this place someday. Recommended.

FaB-​o reminds me of Old School theatres’ in San Diego in the 6O’s. Great sound We could hear arrows wizzing by my ears. We sat in the BALCONY which made so special. Madison the Mgt. person was just darling. We will shoot $ 2 entry per person tab weekly as our special treat. Also great deals on snacks. My first seat had a spring that sprung, no worries… made us laugh. The film «Exodus» was really well Done. Ridley Scott, was great behind the Lens framing one great scene after another, staying close to «the word». We Love they are locally owned and operated. J & K

Love this theater! Great prices, tons of seating, and fun family atmosphere. Happy to support a family owned local business.

I would give this theater a 5 EXCEPT for the parking. The theater is clean, the prices are no doubt the best for the treats and the flick but the parking is so terrible I an willing to a. Rent the movie that is now available through Netflix or Amazon or b. See the movie for full price in the theater. If you are going to see something during a showing that anyone else wants to see you better plan on stressing out because you can’t find a park and just missed the beginning of the movie. They used to have parking behind the theater but for some reason it is blocked off and (I’m sure for good reason) the business around them stalk their own parking lots «reminding» you they will be happy to tow you if you park in there lot. Crazy! Never again! Ever! Sorry kids. Not worth it.

Great value and great people working too. The only reason they get 4 stars and not five is because the bathrooms are two small for the size of theater, and because there is no cup holders on the seats. For sure first world problems and what can you expect for a double feature at $ 4. But it would be nice. Will still go back tho

THE GOOD
Money money money — tickets are super cheap, making it actually reasonable to come here frequently and with groups of people.
Movies here are still fairly recent. If you didn’t get a chance to catch a flick while it was in the major cinemas you can usually see it here a few weeks later for a fraction of the price.
This theatre is historic and has its fair share of fans throughout generations.
THE BAD
Parking is… well, there isn’t really any. Luckily, downtown Gresham provides free parking a few blocks away.
THE UGLY
Accessibility for disabled patrons is appalling. It’s better just to avoid this theatre if one of your party has mobility issues.
The seats. But for a theatre that’s this old, it’s no surprise that things are worn down.

A great old theater with lots of character, and you can’t beat the price: $ 4 for a double feature. Second run films only, of course, but I watch movies so infrequently that it’s not like I’m impatient to see the blockbusters. The one issue I have with it is disability access stuff: the slope on the ramp into the theater is pretty horrendous, likewise with the slope down to the main seating area. And the theater’s bathrooms aren’t accessible, but there is a café on the main floor with a restroom you can use while it’s open. Though now that I think about it I think that bathroom is super tiny.
Meh. If you’re a gimp, bring a friend and wear a diaper? :P

Let me be frank, this theater had a bad reputation for a long time. But after a while and either new owners or just a more active community, they turned this place around ENTIRELY.
It used to stink, be dirty, never even half crowded, and they let you take your own food in. They didn’t have a concession stand, in terms of concession stands go. But they remodeled, hired more people, added a few businesses in the places next to them; it has really turned into a place I’d want to go after a dinner. I watched this theater transform into a really fantastic place and all of my experiences, even when it was a downright awful place to go, have always been fun.
Not sure if they still allow your own food in, but when I was a kid, my family would get whopper meals and eat it while watching a double feature. Before the next movie we’d pop into pizza hut for bread sticks. Lots of great memories here.

I love date nights here. The price is awesome and the place is always clean. If you can wait for 2^nd run movies this is one of the cheapest options around. I hope that mt. hood stays in business forever.

Mt. Hood Theatre is great for family or date nights. It is a small theatre, but kept clean and tidy. It is very kid friendly. It doesn’t show new releases, but the movies shown are usually of interest.

We have been going to Hood Theatre about seven years:
If you are looking for the best bang for the buck when it comes to having a great time with the kids or even a little time away from the kids with the wife or husband then you should check out this theatre.
The help are fun and easy to get along with, the movies are good entertainment and the concessions are very reasonable. You will make this place a habit and you will enjoy every minute of it.
So, sit down relax and have a great evening out.

I love this little theater in downtown Gresham and the other night I realized I need to go to it more often! It is a discount theater where for $ 4 you can see two evening shows, they play mostly kids movies in the afternoons and the snacks are pretty decent at a really good price. You aren’t going to get a state of the art movie experience here, but it still is a good theater and you can’t beat the prices.

This place is well worth a visit. Sure, you only get a few movie selections, but you get a double-​header for dirt cheap and they do not completely rip you off on the popcorn and soda
4 bucks for movies
Try it out if you are in the area.

The seats are threadbare, the sound’s a little off… and it’s exactly what you’d expect and want from a budget second-​run theater that lets you watch two movies for only $ 4. It would be silly to expect a state of the art experience with such prices. Its a great community resource for people with little entertainment funds and a wonderful use for a beautiful old theater that could have otherwise been considered defunct and ready for the wrecking ball.
Oh, and the popcorn is awesome. I don’t know what’s different about it, but it’s not the same stuff you get at most theaters. Real butter perhaps?

Love this place! $ 4 double features

This is one of the best deals in Gresham. $ 4 for a double feature? Yes, please!
Not the nicest theater of all time, but I love that I can see all those movies I missed. A total hit for us.

Perfect for movies that you want to see on the big screen but don’t need to see right away. They show them right before they come out on DVD.
Great value. As Scott M. said, $ 4 for a double or triple feature. One free refill on a large popcorn.
They have a matinée series for kids that they sell at a discount once a year.
Movies always start late, by the way, though usually not by more than a few minutes.
They seem to be slowly replacing their seats with newer, more comfortable ones.

2 movies. A back row dark enough for… whatever shenanigans your imagination can concoct. And when you actually want to watch the movies, you can get a massive tub of popcorn and you DON’T have to sacrifice your soul (or just pay a lot of money) to get it. All for just over 4 bucks. SIGN ME UP.
It’s old town Gresham style, definitely rustic and full of character. There’s TON of seating so most of the time you can catch a seat far away from others enough to not feel the person behind you exhale on the back of your head.
