Dead End Drive-In (1986)
(feddit.nl)
THERE'S A PARTY EVERY DAY, A MOVIE EVERY NIGHT, AND ALL THE JUNK FOOD YOU CAN EAT. WHAT MORE CAN A KID WANT... EXCEPT TO GET OUT.
In the future, a health nut and his tag-along girlfriend become trapped in a drive-in theater that has become a concentration camp for outcast youths.
Watched this last night and I love the whole movie, but the absolute chaos and familiarity of the first half hour is amazing. There was a bit of a lull in the middle, but the movie was definitely a lot of fun. Our favourite thing is how everyone just seems to accept that they're drive-in people now, including the love interest with practically no encouragement, but when Crabsie floats the idea of trying to get out everyone is incredulous.
Also the idea of towies fighting for wrecks and fighting off roving hordes of carboys is a lot of fun.
Where can you watch it
https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/dead-end-drive-in Just choose your country and this should show streaming services which have the movie available. Here in Australia it's on AMC+, while USA has a couple of options.
I'm glad that you had fun with this! If you know of any more fun b movies (Aussie or otherwise), you're free to post them in the community. :)
