As Saturday’s Tiki Invasion at the Mission Tiki Drive-in draws nearer, if you’re still on the fence about attending the 50th-anniversary event, or have just been thinking about coming out and checking out the theater on a regular weekend, you’ll want to take a look at this article from the Inland Valley newspaper The Daily Bulletin. It’s another profile of life at the Mission Tiki from writer David Allen, and this one has an absolutely fantastic gallery of photos taken this past Friday night by Bulletin staff photographer Marc Campos, highlighting the new tiki décor and communicating a superb feel for what it’s like to be there watching a movie at this great drive-in.
