How to snag a ticket for a clowns-only showing of 'IT Chapter Two'
Looking to scar yourself for life? Then does Alamo Drafthouse have a deal for you!
IT Chapter Two is just weeks away from its Sept. 5 release date. To celebrate the sphincter-strengthening event, Alamo Drafthouse will offer up "clowns-only" screenings at 17 of its locations across the United States.
Yep. It's like a regular movie showing, but absolutely every single viewer will be a clown. Amazing? Weird? The closest thing the cinematic experience has to straight-up torture? YMMV.
It's the second time the theater chain has pulled the frightening stunt, offering up two sold-out, clowns-only showings for It in 2017. The photos from those fright fests are as horrifying as you might imagine. To wit:
Looking to attend? For you and your Pennywise-lovin' pals to qualify as "clowns" for the evening, slap on some makeup, a wig, a costume, a foam nose, some oversized shoes, or any combination therein. Screenings will take place exclusively on the weekend of release, from Sept. 5 to Sept. 8.
Tickets are on sale now, running in the $10 to $20 range. Heads up though, certain, clown-heavy locations are already filling up fast.
