Anyone ever listen to "drive-in mode"?
Has anyone gotten the Elite "Drive-In Discs" with DISTORT-O! and listened to the drive-in mode? Sounds like a cool novelty, but can you make it all the way through the movie or want to listen to it more than once?

As far as missing drive-ins... you are NOT alone!

Are these the disks that play all the movie info through the left front channel and then use the remaining speakers to play ambient sounds commonly heard at a drive-in? I read about these a few years ago before they were released and it sounded cool. The other 4 channels would play sounds of cars starting up, car doors shutting, people laughing or talking off in the distance. It sounded like something fun to play for a group of friends at a party or something.

I've watched the first 2 with the Distorto tracks, haven't heard the 3rd one yet. There's a few brief comments from the back seat, like during Screaming Skull the guy says "Here comes the scary part!" then the girl says "That wasn't scary!"
