An "M. Night Shyamalanathon" Will Screen the Entire Unbreakable Trilogy, and Um, It's Free

04/01/2019 - 10:30 PM

Cancel your plans on Saturday, Jan. 12, and make room for an epic M. Night Shyamalan [1] marathon. To celebrate the third and final instalment in the Unbreakable trilogy [2], Alamo Drafthouse is screening all three movies back-to-back in 25 theatres across the county — and it's free. Cleverly titled the M. Night Shyamalanathon (say that five times fast), the hours-long event will start in the afternoon with Unbreakable (2000), then show Split [3] (2016), and will end with the first-ever American public screening of "explosive comic-book thriller" Glass [4], for which both Bruce Willis [5] and Samuel L. Jackson [6] returned.

Since tickets are free, all you have to do is reserve your spot at Alamo Drafthouse [7] by purchasing a $5 food and drink voucher that you can redeem at the show. If your Drafthouse location is Brooklyn, you're in for an even more special treat: Shyamalan will actually be there for a live conversation, which will be broadcast into all other theatres. If this sounds like your kind of Saturday night, snag your spot, dig in to a gigantic bowl of Alamo Drafthouse's truffle popcorn, and get ready for a wild ride.

In addition to the Drafthouse locations, the Egyptian Theatre in LA will host its own free marathon [9] beginning at 4 p.m. If you don't get the chance to go to the marathon, you can see Glass in theatres starting on Jan. 18.
