Film Ohio theater plays Insidious: Chapter 3 instead of Inside Out

Recommended Posts

So yeah, this happened and I don't know if I should feel bad about it, but I'm laughing so hard right now.

Jazmyn Moore just wanted to take five kids to see the Pixar sensation Inside Out at the Danbarry Cinema in Middletown, Ohio. And for good reason: It’s a delightful movie that appeals to anyone who’s ever grown up and has feelings (so, everyone). Moore and the children would certainly have been in for a great theater-going experience.

But there was a detour in getting there. An employee accidentally initially played a different movie prior to Inside OutJurassic World would have been a low-impact accident, but it wasn’t that. It was Insidious: Chapter 3, according to the Journal-News. “Moore said images of children being tied up and murdered appeared on the screen,” the Journal-News wrote Thursday, “and the children with her became terrified at the sights and sounds.” 

“I got our money back but the damage is already done,” Moore wrote in a Facebook post, per the Journal-News. “My children are terrified and keep asking questions.” This hasn’t happened since at this theater, and the affected parties were given passes and an upgrade to see Inside Out in 3D—that seems like a net positive. The kids likely empathized with Bill Hader’s emotion in a big way.

How long did they stay in the theater until they realized it wasn't an animation?

They probably stayed and watched the whole thing because they thought they could get away with it xD ALSO Insidious Chapter 3 isn't a bad movie and not even scary so I don't see what the problem is.

They probably thought it was a trailer promo, although it's should be obvious when the green rating screen doesn't show up.I still feel like they stayed for quite a while; parent was stupid to not realize the wrong movie was played and to leave. The employee who made the error is also at fault here.

Would have been a weird trailer promo in a kids movie.

Children being tried up and murdered wasn't in Insidious: Chapter 3. I just watched it last night.

I watched Insidious 3 a while ago and I don't remember seeing children being tied up and murdered either. It confused me when I read the article
