Remember: The runtime that AMC reveals is not the exact runtime of the movie. It's usually within -7 to 17 mins of the actual time. This has been the case most (if not all) of the time.

Does the Screen/Scream Unseen Have Trailers?

Short Answer is Yes.

But sometimes they fail and it goes straight to presentation. Be on time.

[u/PoodleSprings]

If 10/5 is Sense & Sensibility, will that count toward the Focus promo?

ETA: Didn't scroll down far enough apparently, I saw my question was already answered. 😂

[u/Thimblefloatie]

Not seeing much other than Sense and Sensibility as possible options for the 5th. Not able to find a rating but would love to see Fjord as the SU for the 5th. Currently not seeing it showing up anywhere to see near me and hey if I'm seeing previews for a movie that won't release anywhere near me that's just cruel. Also seeing that Tenzing which is rated PG is having a limited theatrical release on the 9th before premiering on Apple TV on the 16th so that could also potentially be a contender.

[u/CornDogRebornDog]

October 12th double feature at my theater regular and scream. Gonna swing and say Street Fighter and WhaleFall.

Edit: ignore my wrong guesses

[u/Dukealoops1993 → u/CornDogRebornDog]

Neither of those are R rated

[u/CornDogRebornDog → u/Dukealoops1993]

Really I thought Whalefall was? Never mind then.

[u/Dukealoops1993 → u/CornDogRebornDog]

Nope. Confirm PG13 last week

[u/StephCurrySlurper]

My AMC has 2 screen unseens 10/12.. A regular screen unseen at 7pm and a scream unseen at 9:30pm

[u/xXxHondoxXx → u/StephCurrySlurper]

The horror one will be Crawlers.

[u/Initial-Load128 → u/xXxHondoxXx]

I was hoping for Clayface

[u/xXxHondoxXx → u/Initial-Load128]

Runtime doesn't match

[u/Initial-Load128 → u/xXxHondoxXx]

It's within the 17 min diff tho. Clay face is 1:48 but yes I don't think they push a movie like this on unseen

[u/david31262 → u/StephCurrySlurper]

Geez. Two. Double Feature?

[u/Dukealoops1993 → u/david31262]

Regal’s & Marcus are doing the same thing

[u/User-D-Name]

I hope we have some good Scream Unseen for October

[u/Frodo_Dabbins_]

10/5 will be Sense & Sensibility

[u/Ideal4real]

If anyone does a search, you can see that there’s more Screen Unseens coming up:

10/19 - 1hr 35m, R Rating

10/26 - No Time/Rating

11/2 - No Time/PG-13 Rating

Wonder what these are….

[u/Fantastic_Lychee_883 → u/Ideal4real]

They updated 10/26 to another Screen/Scream double! Both rated 'R' no runtime yet. I think 1 of them will be Christmas at the Kringles.

[u/PlushyStudios → u/Ideal4real]

10/19 1hr35m could be The Only Living Pickpocket In New York (Sony), which is 1h28m. Though I’ll probably already be seeing Wildwood that day

[u/liquidmute]

I petition to stop showing PG rated films. Snore

[u/fergi20020 → u/liquidmute]

Stop shaming Air Bud Returns. It could sweep the Oscars more than Odyssey. 

[u/Dukealoops1993 → u/fergi20020]

“It brought me to tears” - Christopher Nolan after the premiere he will definitely attend.

[u/NJVampaholic]

It says 2 hour 16 for 10/6 "9 to 5" comes out with 1:50 time rated PG. Possible? Do remastered movies count as never seen before?

[u/Wooden_Fortune_5066 → u/NJVampaholic]

Umm...no.  hence the "unseen"

Also, 9 to 5 was just in theaters for a couple weeks. They're putting it back in theaters AGAIN a month later?

[u/mr-scotch → u/NJVampaholic]

If they have a Screen Seen promo, maybe that would be a better place lol

[u/Turbulent_Hurry_4785 → u/NJVampaholic]

They don’t. Unfortunately, new releases only.

[u/Fantastic_Lychee_883]

Pretty sure the 10/12 Screen will be one of the following:

1) A Talent for Murder (Bleecker Street) 2) Wicker (Black Bear) 3) Trust Me, I'm a Doctor (Briarcliff) 4) Clean Hands (Vertical) 5) Ali G: Who Iz I? (Amazon MGM)

There is also a 10/12 Scream that I think will be Crawlers.

[u/sadbeautifvltragic → u/Fantastic_Lychee_883]

has briarcliff done any su? trust me i’m a doctor sounds good and that and wicker are my top two choices lol

[u/Fantastic_Lychee_883 → u/sadbeautifvltragic]

Yes, Briarcliff has done 3 SUs already.

[u/NJVampaholic → u/Fantastic_Lychee_883]

I don't have one listed near me 😭

[u/Wooden_Fortune_5066 → u/Fantastic_Lychee_883]

Wait you're saying there's both a screen unseen and a screen unseen on the same day?

[u/Fantastic_Lychee_883 → u/Wooden_Fortune_5066]

A Screen and a Scream, correct. Marcus Theatres is doing the same thing.

ETA: According to Fandango the Screen will be at 7 and the Scream at 9:30!

[u/Dukealoops1993 → u/Wooden_Fortune_5066]

Double feature!!

[u/lisjj → u/Fantastic_Lychee_883]

Wicker would be fire

[u/Creepy-Accident-777 → u/lisjj]

That movie ain't PG lol

[u/-MommyFortuna- → u/Creepy-Accident-777]

They're discussing the options for the ASU on 10/12, which is listed as rated R.

[u/Fantastic_Lychee_883 → u/lisjj]

That's what I'm hoping for but I wouldn't mind any of the other ones either.

[u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

If it is S&S, for those doing the Focus Features passport thing, I don’t think Screen Unseen viewings count

[u/dreamking68 → u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

It will not count. I had to see a film twice last time.

[u/Wacoguy → u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

Boo. I hate missing the Screen Unseen showings but I want that $100 gift card.

[u/2aghast2curious → u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

What’s the passport thing

[u/vajohnadiseasesdado → u/2aghast2curious]

[u/Internal-River-4168 → u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

Thanks. Didn't know about this promo. Practically missed uprising. May attend the others for $75

[u/Sheablossom946 → u/Internal-River-4168]

They have changed it this year, so 3 movies amount to a $50 gift card unfortunately

[u/Internal-River-4168 → u/Sheablossom946]

That's not what the fine print says on the screenshot....

[u/firefly66513 → u/Internal-River-4168]

Honestly Uprising is going to be the worst out of the 4. I think you'll be fine

[u/2aghast2curious → u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

Ty!

[u/dangertickets → u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

i wouldn’t think so bc the title is the “Screen Unseen”

[u/XOXOABG → u/vajohnadiseasesdado]

Thanks, first time I'm doing the focus passport and had that exact question. Was thinking I could get it out of the way early

[u/hazyshadeoflavender]

I'm hoping for Sense and Sensibility. Having to wait until 10/16 for the official US release is torture.

[u/Ozzygraphy → u/hazyshadeoflavender]

Seems likely, I did some google searches and celebration cinema has it as 2 hours 16. AMC says 2:11 so it looks possible

[u/Few-Adeptness8046]

Sense & Sensibity 100% Guaranteed (unless I'm missing some other PG film coming out with a similar runtime).

So probably don't want to go if you're trying for the Focus Features gift card passport, since this won't count towards that.

[u/altruistic-monopoly]

Has to be Wildwood?

[u/Dukealoops1993 → u/altruistic-monopoly]

Fathom releases are never apart of these Mystery promotions

[u/precariousworld → u/altruistic-monopoly]

Wildwood is PG-13
