AMC has reiterated its hope to reopen the company’s cinemas in July after posting a staggering loss, The Wall Street Journal reports. On an earnings call yesterday, the company’s CEO Adam Aron said that he expects 97 percent of the company’s US locations to reopen by next month, after AMC was forced to close theaters in March as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. AMC operates over 1,000 theaters, and more than 11,000 screens, globally. Recent surveys, however, suggest that movie-goers aren’t ready to return in substantial numbers.

ACM relies entirely on public gatherings to make its money, posting a $2.2 billion net loss in the first quarter of the year. It made “virtually no revenue” in the last two weeks of March, according to The Wall...

Reddit has named Y Combinator CEO Michael Seibel to its board of directors. In addition to running the well-known accelerator, Seibel also co-founded the live streaming company Justin.tv before it transformed into Twitch. Justin.tv was an early recipient of Y Combinator seed money through the accelerator’s startup fund, as was Reddit. (Seibel also co-founded Socialcam and sold it to Autodesk in 2012.)

Seibel is replacing co-founder and board member Alexis Ohanian, who stepped down from the company’s board of directors last week and asked to be replaced by a black candidate. Seibel was Y Combinator’s first black partner prior to becoming CEO, and he has supported a number of initiatives to increase diversity in the tech industry,...

Twitter’s version of Stories rolls out in India

“Fleets,” Twitter’s take on Snapchat/Instagram-style stories, just became available in India. The feature is gradually rolling out around the world; after initially launching in Brazil, fleets came to Italy last month.

“India is important for Twitter since it is one of our largest and fastest-growing audience markets globally,” Twitter’s India managing director Manish Maheshwari said in a statement. “We are excited to bring the Fleets experiment to India and make it one of the first three countries in the world to experience this new product.”

“From the test in India, we’ll learn how adding a new mode of conversation changes the way Indians engage on Twitter. It’ll also be interesting to see if it further amplifies the diversity of...

The Evil Dead Is Coming To Drive-in Theaters This Weekend

It doesn’t matter how many times you’ve watched The Evil Dead, it remains just as endlessly entertaining every single time. And if you’re eager to catch it on the big screen once more, now you can.

Indie film distribution company Grindhouse Releasing is bringing the classic horror movie to drive-in theaters from Saturday, June 13th onward. The first screening is set to be at Pride’s Corner Drive-In in Westbrook, Maine and according to the distributor, more locations will be added and announced shortly. So, if you’re really missing your regular theater outings, this could be the next best thing. The event has even been retweeted by Bruce Campbell himself, so it’s El Jefe approved.

Last Halloween, Grindhouse Releasing distributed a 4K cut of The Evil Dead in cinemas, accompanied by a new soundtrack from the original composer Joseph LoDuca. Speaking to Bloody Disgusting, the company said:

“We’re now releasing the original version to drive-ins – scanned from the 16mm camera negative in 2K with Joe’s original score and soundtrack. If exhibitors want to show the 4K DCP of ‘Evil Dead Reimagined’, we can supply it, so it depends on the individual drive-ins. (I know of at least one that will be showing the Reimagined cut, and another drive-in that’s showing it in 35mm.)”

In a recent interview with Empire, Bruce Campbell confirmed that a new movie in the franchise, titled Evil Dead Now, is in the works. However, Campbell’s character Ash Williams won’t be in it and the film will feature a female protagonist instead. Plot details remain non-existent, unfortunately, and all we know for sure is that Lee Cronin is writing and directing it. As for a release date? Well, Campbell said “we’re going to get that sucker out as soon as practical,” so hopefully it’s not too far off.

In any case, with the spinoff TV series Ash vs. Evil Dead getting canceled and the new movie still brewing in development, the drive-in experience is the only version of The Evil Dead we’re destined to get for a while, so you’d be wise to check it out if it’s playing at a location near you.
