Comment by Dr. Loomis – Cinema Releases December 8 2017
Not too many new releases this week as the cinemas prepare for a certain sci-fi adventure film that will be out next week in both the UK and US. That said just how bad does the comedy horror Better Watch Out look and it looks even worse if you check-out the red band trailer on Universal Pictures youtube channel.
