Regal has partnered with Fangoria, the most trusted source for horror entertainment, to bring influential fright films back to the big screen on the 13th day of every month. The Fangoria Staff Picks series launches with the rerelease of “Sinister” (2012) on Monday, April 13 at select Regal theatres across the country.

“Partnering with Regal allows us to take Fangoria’s bone-deep love of horror and splatter it all over the big screen where it belongs. Whether it’s your first time viewing a classic or you’ve seen it a hundred times, nothing compares to the theatrical experience,” said Phil Nobile Jr., Editor-in-Chief at Fangoria. “There’s nothing like the silence, the tension, and the reactions of a packed audience, which makes Regal the perfect partner to give fans a consistent, monthly destination for these essential films.”

Fangoria staff selected Sinister as the opener for their namesake horror series, as the fright flick is widely considered the scariest movie ever made, based on a scientific study that measured audience heart rates. Scott Derrickson’s film delivers a masterclass in slow-burn dread by cleverly using sound, imagery, and proven scare tactics to create a lingering sense of unease among viewers.

“By summoning fans to gather on the 13th of every month, we’re going beyond just curating films and cultivating the experience into a full-blown ritual. Through editorial coverage, behind-the-scenes access, and fan discussions, each screening comes with context, conversation, and insight you won’t get anywhere else,” said Nobile Jr.

Moviegoers frequently rely on expert opinions and trusted voices for recommended viewing, and the Fangoria Staff Picks series delivers a deep dive into the rabbit hole of must-watch horror films. Regal is deathly excited to bring Sinister and other influential scary movies back to the big screen and can’t wait to hear the delightful screams coming from inside the pitch-black auditoriums.

Regal guests attending a Fangoria Staff Picks showtime on the 13th of the month will receive a collectible patch to record each frightful step along their horror film journey (while supplies last). Additionally, Regal Crown Club members and Unlimited subscribers who get tickets to any Fangoria screening will receive a $10 small popcorn and soft drink combo offer to enjoy between their gasps of terror.

Advance tickets for showtimes of Sinister as well as future Fangoria Staff Picks are thematically priced at $13.00 and available at select theatre box offices / kiosks, on the mobile app, and through REGmovies.com. Members of Regal Unlimited can also secure tickets for FANGORIA Staff Picks screenings as part of their monthly subscription.
