Reception

Lawrence Van Gelder of The New York Times wrote, "'Drive-In' possesses the virtue of fresh faces, the drawback of uneven acting, the irritation of occasional overwriting and the limited appeal of what is basically a juvenile story."[3] Arthur D. Murphy of Variety called the film an "easy-going and likeable George Litto production. Rod Amateau's direction of Bob Peete's script turns the liabilities of low-budget production and largely unknown performers into creative assets by virtue of the simplicity and sincerity of the results."[4] Gene Siskel of the Chicago Tribune gave the film two stars out of four, describing the humor as insult comedy typical of TV shows like Hee Haw and expressing his wish that "the script of 'Drive-In' had been trashed and 'Disaster '76' had been fully made instead."[5] Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times called it "a shrewdly made exploitation picture, undoubtedly indebted to 'American Graffiti' but played very, very broadly to reach the most unsophisticated of audiences. Yet as corny as it so often gets, it's consistently funny."[6]
