The fact that Frankenstein Hitting theaters before it even arrives on Netflix is no doubt Guillermo del Toro’s strong desire for the theatrical experience of his dream project. It also helps that films must have a theatrical run to qualify for awards season.
The latter is a reason Netflix’s surprise hit Kpop Demon Hunter There were those limited movie theater screenings in August, coming back This is Halloween Due to popular demand.
But when Kpop Demon Hunter Hit screens across multiple theater chains if you’re hoping to see Oscar Isaac (Moon Knight) and Jacob Elordi (excitement) in Frankenstein On the big screen, opportunity seems as elusive as the monster.
Netflix has a deal with AMC theaters to show Kpop Demon Hunter, Frankenstein Screenings will not be held at any of the chain’s cineplexes. So if you’re like me, a paying member of the AMC A-list, you can’t slot this into your weekly movie plan. Many families budget for a flat A-list fee for monthly movies; for FrankensteinYou’ll have to pay full price to see it anywhere else, and then—if your kids are too young to enjoy del Toro’s passion project—you’ll have to book a sitter on top of that.
But if you have an unlimited entertainment budget, you can find your nearest place on Guillermo del Toro and Netflix. Frankenstein Ticket site here. Just be aware that your nearest theater may not be that close, especially during weekend openings; It will expand next week.
If you live in a big city, your chances are even better. To use Los Angeles as an example—a city with many, many movie theaters—you can only see it at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood (operated by Netflix) or drive to Santa Monica, where the NuArt Theater is playing it in 35mm.
Meanwhile, it’s playing in just three theaters in New York City, including the Angelica Film Center, where it’s also in 35mm. The rest of the presentation is on digital unless you’re lucky enough to get IMAX screening tickets (according to the publication, IMAX does not have a listing page for movies). Your best bet is if you’re dead-set on watching Frankenstein Instead of calling your local theater in IMAX or just going to the Netflix ticketing site, check its website.
At least in Hollywood it seems TCL Chinese Theater is getting it big on October 27 with Del Toro is hosting a screening of his film at a cinema across from the legendary temple 31 October.
What will you see? Frankenstein In theaters this weekend, waiting until its expansion next week, or waiting for Netflix in November?
