I went to SM Manila this afternoon intending to watch Martin Scorsese’s KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON. I just assumed SM Manila had it in one of their 10 cinemas. Of course SM Cinema managers knew better than I did.
They went for a Halloween themed fest Sine Sindak Oct 25-31, 2023. Which was a huge hit. There were so many young people lining up in the box office. Mixture of Korean and U.S. Horror movies: CHABAK NIGHT OF MURDER AND ROMANCE, DAWNING, BELZEBUTH, JACK IN THE BOX2, FINAL SUMMER and more.
You can watch these titles and more for only P250! (for a whole day pass)
That’s why it was such a huge hit!

Sing your heart out in TAYLOR SWIFT ERAS TOUR in SM Cinemas, Robinsons Movieworld, Ayala Malls Cinemas and Red Carpet Cinemas in Shang Rila Plaza Mall.
I wanted to be upset but seeing a lot of young people going to watch movies made me so happy. THAT and of course the Taylor Swift concert, another monster blockbuster. Seeing the trailer, IF I was a Swifty, I’d be happier just going to the cinema as opposed to watching her live.
First of all, I didn’t spend thousands of dollars for the tickets. OR tens of thousands of pesos. AND I didn’t have to wait up online or wait for hours JUST to get the tickets. I didn’t have to go through hours of traffic just to get to the concert venue. AND I didn’t have to fly abroad.

Sing your heart out in TAYLOR SWIFT ERAS TOUR in SM Cinemas, Robinsons Movieworld, Ayala Malls Cinemas and Red Carpet Cinemas in Shang Rila Plaza Mall.
I just went to my neighborhood SM, Robinsons, Ayala Mall to watch it.
The camera work and audio was topnotch in TAYLOR SWIFT ERAS TOUR.
All from the comfort of a cinema seat. YES they do encourage you to stand up, dance and sing your heart out too. Just like the real concert.
EVEN IF I can’t relate to her music I am SO grateful Taylor Swift is helping support our local cinemas this way.
I’m super grateful she’s an outspoken Biden supporter.
