Los Angeles, CA: AMC Sunset 5 Closed

The AMC Sunset 5 in Los Angeles, California has closed.

Located in the 8000 Sunset Strip shopping center on Sunset Boulevard and Crescent Heights Boulevard, the theater originally opened August 19, 1992 as the Laemmle's Sunset 5 (Laemmle Theatres). It closed November 30, 2011 and reopened in August 2012 as the Sundance Sunset Cinema (Sundance Cinemas). Carmike Cinemas acquired Sundance Cinemas in 2015, but the name remained. It became the AMC Dine-In Sunset 5 in April 2017 after AMC acquired Carmike Cinemas. It was later rebranded as the AMC Sunset 5.

In February, Deadline reported that Landmark Theatres was going to be taking over the movie theater. That transition is supposed to happen in June, but until then, moviegoers in the area will need to visit one of the other nearby theaters, including the Brain Dead Studios, the TCL Chinese Theatres & IMAX, and the El Capitan Theatre. In the Los Angeles area, Landmark operates the Landmark Westwood, the Landmark Nuart Theatre, and the Landmark Theatres Pasadena. Landmark's website does not list the Sunset location on its website yet, so we're going to mark the theater as inactive until more information becomes available.
