This March, horror enthusiasts are in for a treat as Blumhouse, the powerhouse behind some of the most spine-chilling films, teams up with AMC Theatres to kickstart the spooky season early with the inaugural Halfway to Halloween Film Festival. Starting Friday, March 29, and running for five exhilarating days, the festival will take place in over 40 cities and 100 AMC movie theaters across the United States, bringing together communities of horror fans for a celebration of cinematic scares.
A Tribute to “Insidious”
The festival coincides with the 13th anniversary of “Insidious” on April 1, marking nearly half the journey to Halloween. “Insidious” not only set a new benchmark for horror but also commemorated the first partnership between Blumhouse and Atomic Monster, laying the groundwork for a new era of spine-tingling storytelling.
