Scary Movie Is Due For A Return

From exclusive Hollywood product presentations debuting a slate of upcoming films, to must-see premiere feature screenings, to the biggest stars, producers and directors, in 2024, CinemaCon will jumpstart the excitement and buzz that surrounds the fall and holiday season (and beyond) at the box office.
The CinemaCon schedule will be broad, diverse, educational and fun, and will feature the largest cinema trade show in the world. It will appeal to and attract all facets of the international motion picture theater industry—exhibition, distribution, marketing, publicity and advertising, internet and social media and of course, the theater equipment and concessions manufacturers and dealers who will showcase the latest technological advances and innovative concession offerings at the trade show, which is run in association with our partners at ICTA and NAC. As well, CinemaCon will continue to incorporate a special day of programming geared for the international marketplace, that being Monday, 8 April 2024.

Scary Movie is about due for a return. The serious nature of horror these days needs to be taken down a peg or two, as elevated horror and seriousness has taken some of the humor out of the genre. Not a bad thing, but it can stand to lighten up a bit here and there and let its hair down.

Much more from CinemaCOn coming all week here on BC.
