From October 31 through November 2, fans can belt their favorite songs at screenings across New York City, from Alamo Drafthouse in Lower Manhattan to AMC Empire 25 in Times Square.<\/p>\n<p>The limited run is more than fan service: it marks another unexpected theatrical detour for Netflix. When the sing-along version premiered in August, it stunned box-office watchers by opening at number\u00a0one and grossing roughly $18 million in just two days. That success helped\u00a0make\u00a0KPop Demon Hunters to become Netflix\u2019s most-watched film ever, with its soundtrack continuing to dominate the Billboard Hot 100.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the movie\u2019s encore arrives with an even wider reach. AMC Theatres, which sat out the first release, is screening the film in roughly 400 locations across the U.S. and Europe, an unlikely alignment between the largest cinema chain and a streamer that once made exhibitors very nervous. For moviegoers, it simply means more seats and more screens to scream-sing into Halloween weekend.<\/p>\n<p>The film itself remains as gleefully chaotic as ever. Rumi, Mira and Zoey might be international pop idols, but between choreography rehearsals, they moonlight as demon hunters protecting fans from supernatural threats. Their latest mission pits them against a rival boy band that\u2019s literally from hell\u2014because why not?<\/p>\n<p>And New Yorkers won\u2019t have to hunt far for a seat. The sing-along will play at key city theaters, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/newyork\/movie-theaters\/paris-theatre\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paris Theater<\/a> in Midtown, Alamo Drafthouse in Lower Manhattan, Nitehawk in Williamsburg and AMC Empire 25 in Times Square, giving fans across the boroughs plenty of options to jump in on the chaos. These screenings feature on-screen lyrics and, if August\u2019s turnout is any indication, plenty of costumed viewers ready to deliver every fanchant and falsetto.<\/p>\n<p>The event also reflects Netflix\u2019s evolving relationship with theatrical releases: not a full pivot toward cinemas, but a tactical embrace of the big screen as a hype machine for its most fervent fandoms. Grab your tickets, warm up your voice and prepare to face down a boy-band apocalypse one chorus at a time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you\u2019ve been humming \u201cGolden\u201d under your breath since June, you\u2019re in luck.
