REPORTS: Top Movie Theater Chains Just Caved To Sony Hackers

The top five movie theater chains in the US have decided to not show 'The Interview' after threats by hackers who have attacked Sony Pictures over the movie, According to The Hollywood Reporter.

The Wrap reports Regal, AMC and Cinemark are among the US theaters who pulled the movies, and that Cineplex - Canada's largest theater - has also pulled the film.

Regal Entertainment, AMC Entertainment, Cinemark, Carmike Cinemas and Cineplex Entertainment have all decided against showing the film after hackers - who melted Sony's servers and stole an estimated 11 terabytes of information  in November - threatened to attack theaters who showen the film.

Here's the threat which was sent to several news organizations.

Warning

We will clearly show it to you at the very time and places "The Interview" be shown, including the premiere, how bitter fate those who seek fun in terror should be doomed to.
Soon all the world will see what an awful movie Sony Pictures Entertainment has made.
The world will be full of fear.
Remember the 11th of September 2001.
We recommend you to keep yourself distant from the places at that time.
(If your house is nearby, you'd better leave.)
Whatever comes in the coming days is called by the greed of Sony Pictures Entertainment.
All the world will denounce the SONY. 

Carmike Cinemas, which has 238 theaters in 41 states, confirmed its decision to drop the film to the Hollywood report.

'The Interview' comes out on December 25. 

Press screenings of "The Interview" in Baltimore, Cincinnati, Detroit and Austin have also been canceled.
