Fonda anu Miss Hepburn are old coots spending another summer at their cabin on the lake. Cobb Cinema. Pacific High NoCode Rating Roy Edward Disney's incompetent documentary purports to tell the story of the Ensenada Derby, an annual race involving 500 boats and 4.000 yachtsmen. Disney fails to catch a sense of excitement and. at the end, you are not even certain who But the victor apparently was not any of the ships that Disney was tracking.

The potbellied and pasty skinned sailors seem more interested in the liquor they intend to consume, win or lose, at the finish line than they are in the race. Showing through Tuesday. Rhodes. Poltergeist PG "Poltergeist" is "The Twilight Zone" raised to the 10th power. In an all-American suburb, ghosts abduct a 5-y ear-old girl and stash her in a fourth dimension within the house.

The dis- fraught parents consult a parapsy-chologist who realizes that the situation calls for drastic action. She brings in a pint-sized medium with king-sized intuition. Lenox Square, Green's Corner, Suburban Plaza, Shannon, Roswell Village, Old Dixie, Greenbriar, Cobb Center, South Dekalb. 12 Oaks. Porky' A sequel to this ghastly comedy is already in production.

What a shame. "Porky's" is a nonsensical and vulgar tale set in Florida in the 1950s. Six boys are determined to become customers of Porky's, a brothel in the Everglades. Village, Belvedere, Ben Hill. Miracle, North Springs.

Town Country, Omni, Arrowhead, Doraville Saloon Cinema. Lakewood, ton. Raiders of th Lost Ark PG Sensational. Harrison Ford portrays Indiana Jones, an archaeologist with a gift for getting into trouble. He goes to Egypt in search of the Biblical ark of the covenant, which an army of Hitler's stooges also is seeking.

Among other catastrophes, "Indy" is thrown into a pit filled with 6,000 snakes. Happily, he survives. Under Steven Spielberg's witty and brisk direction, "Raiders" depicts more hair's-breadth escapes than would seem possible in a two-houf movie. This is a terrific moviegoing experience. Showing as part of the Fox Theatre's annual Family Film Festival at 8 p.m.

Th Sscret of NIMH This is the best Disney-type cartoon since "The Rescuers." "The Secret of NIMH" was made by a group of former Disney animators, so the similarity in style is understandable. Oddly enough, "Secret of NIMH" may be more enjoyable for adults than for kiddies. Because of the intensity, the picture is definitely not recommended for anyone under 6. The story is set on a farm. Mrs.

Brisby. a field mouse, has a son with pneumonia. In search of help, a wise old owl instructs her to consult rats who live under a rose bush. The rats are escapees from a laboratory, where they learned to read and write and are constructing an advanced civilization. Lenox Square.

Ths 16th International Toumee of Animation No Code Rating The program contains 20 animated films. One is the 1980 Academy Award-winning "The Fly." a Hungarian 7 account of a fly's disastrous voyage.

Another is "History of the World in Three Minutes Flat." winner of the Golden Bear at the Berlin festival in 1981. A third is "Little Rural Riding Hood," a 1949 cartoon classic di-' rected by "Tex" Avery. A fourth is called "Computer Image Corporation Portfolio." Among the other pictures are "Opens Wednesday" and "Ubu." Showing Wednesday and Thursday. Rhodes. Soldier of Orange A major war film from Holland, starring Rutger Hauer as a playboy who becomes a hero.

At the outside of World War II, Rutger and his friends think only of girls, tennis and gruesome fraternity jokes. They are soon brought face to face with the Nazi peril and respond to it in different fashions. With the aid of the underground, Rutger makes his way to England, where he joins Queen Wilhel-mina in exile. He is sent on daring forays across the Channel. Bijou.

Soms Kind of Hsro Richard Pryor redeems a dubious script. He plays a Gl released after several years as a prisoner of the Viet Cong. Pryor discovers that his troubles are just beginning. His wife has taken a lover, his mother is sick and impoverished, and the Army is taking a stern look at a paper Pryor signed under duress. Omni.

M2-17I2 AIDERS ROCKY 111 2:505:157:4510:10 The huge amount of business being done by this minor movie is fresh proof of the value of publicity. In this instance, the publicity was provided by the Fulton County solicitor.

He claimed earlier this year that the pic-ture was obscene, even though he had lost a court case involving "The Story of 0" in 1976. A jury decided last month that the solicitor was wrong again. 0, played by Corinne Clery, is a fashion photographer with kinky amorous To instill the concept of obedience, she allows her-, self to be beaten. As the supreme test, her boyfriend (Udo Keir) orders her to transfer her allegiance to Anthony Steel. She agrees, and they all live happily ever after.

Screening Room. Ths Thing Such a pity. John Carpenter is too gifted a moviemaker to let nauseating special effects take over his biggest, film, but that's what happened in "The Thing." The creature attacks his victims from the jnside, causing them to erupt in stomach-churning displays of flesh and bones. Howard Hawks' 1951 "The Thing" is vastly superior. Tower Place, South DeKalb, National.

Tron PG Eye-opening, but disappointing. Why isn't this movie any fun? The answer is that all the effort was put into visual razzle-dazzle, of which, admittedly, there is plenty. Jeff Bridges does his best to give the movie a little perkiness, but he has an uphill fight. The story doesn't make any more sense than most video games. Jeff is snooping in a computer in search of evidence that David Warner cheated -him.

Unbeknownst to Jeff, Warner is not giving orders to the computer; the computer is giving orders to Warner. The computer zaps Jeff with a laser blast. He is miniaturized and abducted into the wiring, where he is forced to become a gladiator in a deadly game. Jeff is a spunky sort and makes an attempt to escape, accompanied by Bruce Boxleitner and Dan Shor. Tara, North DeKalb, Shannon, Roswell Mall.
