Landis Theatre-Mori Brothers Building, is located in Vineland, Cumberland County, New Jersey, United States. The building was built in 1937 and its first movie was Hats Off. The theater serviced the USO during WWII, and the auditorium was twinned in 1980. After 50 years of service to the Vineland community, it closed finally in 1987, victim of declining revenue against the Demarco Cinemas nearby. Its last movie was House 2. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 22, 2000. Renovation of the theater was completed in early 2010, and it officially re-opened on May 22, with Bernadette Peters being the opening act.
