Hometown Cinemas was founded in December of 2008 in Lockhart Texas and soon thereafter added a second location in Terrell Texas.  The name "Hometown Cinemas" was chosen because it caters to areas outside major cities and represents the atmosphere you will find here.  Our goal it not only to provide a great cinematic presentation but also to give you the touch of a personal and friendly staff that aims to make every part of your experience at Hometown great.   Hometown is a first run theatre with 35mm film projectors and both DTS and Dolby Digital sound systems.  We have 6 screens in Lockhart and 5 in Terrell and you will pay less for a ticket and concessions at Hometown than any surrounding theatre in the area.

Hometown was founded by Randy Hester who has spent close to 30 years on the exhibition side of the movie industry.  Randy has a passion for presenting the magic of Hollywood movies to the American's eye. Randy is actively involved with Hometown's daily operations but he says what he enjoys the most about his job is serving a happy customer.  He occasionally works side by side with the employees serving popcorn or greeting people in the lobby with a smile. 

"I believe in providing a fun and friendly environment that makes going to the movies a magical experience the way is was intended.  We treat our customers as guests and employees as people...and that's why "There's no place like HOMETOWN!"

"We give you the amenities of a big city theatre but still have the friendly neighborhood, small town atmosphere.  Hometown is where everyone feels welcome."
