MOA Galleria - Northway Mall Ball
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - 1964
Carnival of Souls - 1962
But mainly I just dug the idea that these people (in the first pic) were actually ballroom dancing inside Northway Mall! Something kind of odd looking (and spooky) about that scene. I doubt the mall does this anymore, though, heh.

Wow, you're right, that DOES resemble Carnival of Souls! (One of my favorite movies, too.)
Movies and malls, they mix so well together!!!
No more ballroom dances in malls, I can assure you. KInda sad that no one dresses up at malls anymore and dances elegantly in front of Florshiem Shoes.
I gotta say, that is a brilliant (and hilarious) comparison!!! :-D
Love this movie, too! It was actually on IFC today, and even tho I own it I always watch movies I love on television
Used to love shopping at this mall back in the day, was always fascinated by the birdcage :-)
Thanks for a great website!
