No trick, just treats: Two of the year\u2019s biggest movies are heading back to theaters for Halloween. <\/p>\n
Warner Bros. announced Tuesday that \u201cSinners<\/a>\u201d will be back in select Imax and Imax 70mm theaters for one week starting Oct. 30. The news follows Netflix\u2019s recent announcement that \u201cKPop Demon Hunters<\/a>\u201d will head back to theaters for sing-along screenings<\/a> for one weekend from Oct. 31 through Nov. 2. <\/p>\n Ryan Coogler\u2019s<\/a> R-rated horror film stars Michael B. Jordan as twin brothers who return to their Mississippi hometown to open up a juke joint for their community with money and liquor they acquired while working for the mob in Chicago. Their opening night jamboree is a hit but things take a turn when an Irish immigrant vampire comes a-knockin\u2019. <\/p>\n The bloody, musical, genre-bending movie exceeded initial box office projections and has grossed $366.7 million so far. Audiences flocked<\/a> to see the film as Coogler intended in Imax 70mm during its brief initial run in the premium format. The popularity prompted \u201cSinners\u201d to be re-released for a second Imax 70mm run<\/a> in May. <\/p>\n Those interested in seeing \u201cSinners\u201d in Imax 70mm during this upcoming re-release in Southern California can head to Universal AMC Citywalk or the Irvine Spectrum. <\/p>\n Netflix\u2019s smash hit \u201cKPop Demon Hunters\u201d is also a musical monster movie, but of the much more family-friendly variety. The animated movie follows a popular K-pop girl group<\/a> whose members wield their songs (and magical weapons) to help protect the world from demons. The popularity of \u201cKPop Demon Hunters\u201d<\/a> \u2014 which has been crowned the streamer\u2019s most-watched movie \u2014 prompted Netflix to take the unusual step of giving the movie a limited theatrical run<\/a> weeks after its streaming premiere. <\/p>\n Those who can\u2019t wait for the event can watch the sing-along version of \u201cKPop Demon Hunters\u201d on Netflix. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"No trick, just treats: Two of the year\u2019s biggest movies are heading back to theaters for Halloween.
