Carmike began in 1982. Carmike cinemas are usually located in rural towns and suburban areas, and rarely in cities with more than a quarter of a million people. Because these cinemas served those outside the big cities, Carmike cinemas were regarded as America’s Hometown Theatre.
By 2016, it ranked as the 4th-largest cinema chain in the US. There were 276 theatres with about 3,000 screens total, spread across 41 states.
Carmike Cinemas, technically, don’t really exist anymore. The Carmike brand was acquired by AMC Theatres in 2016, and that’s the new name as well. Still, these theatres offer terrific entertainment wherever they may be found.
