Greetings Horror Fans,
Have you ever finished watching one of your favorite classic horror titles in your collection and afterwards thinking to yourself "Man I wish I could go back in time and experience that film in the theater", because I sure have. Being a young kid growing up in the 80's and early 90's, my parents would never have taken me or my brother to see a horror film in the theaters. We would have to wait until our local video rental store would have it available in VHS and beg our parents to rent it for us.
Well, now we're all grown up and for those of us lucky to be living or residing in the United States, Regal Cinemas has just announced their "31 Screams on Screen" series that brings classic and modern horror films back to the big screen, the way they were orginially meant to be experienced! As part of this years series, Regal will be bringing back 2 films from the 70's, 11 films from the 80's, 9 films from the 90's, 7 films from the 2000's, 9 films from the 2010's and 1 film from 2021.

Did I mention that one of the best parts is that tickets are only $7.99? Yup, only $7.99 a ticket! At that price, I don't see why we couldn't watch more than a handful of these classics on the big screen and sneak in some candy like the good old days... shh don't tell anyone I said that or I might have to kill you. There you have it horror fans, 31 days and five weekends full of bloody good times to be had for gals and ghouls of all ages. Happy Halloween! https://www.regmovies.com/
