What Classic Movies Are Coming Back to Movie Theaters This Year?

1/14/2025 • 3 min read

Everyone has a favorite classic movie, and we love to see old movies in theaters. When you've only seen the classics at home there's nothing quite like seeing your fave up on the big screen. Fortunately, we show many classic movies here at Cinemark!

The beginning of 2025 features the return of two big movie series: HARRY POTTER and TWILIGHT. But there's also a rare chance to see the original HELLRAISER on the big screen, which is the perfect Valentine's Day primer, if you're into that sort of thing. And our "Love You to Death" series features five fan-favorite horror titles from the last few decades, including BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA, THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, and MIDSOMMAR — all great movies with a Valentine's Day appeal that isn't exactly what you'll find from Hallmark.

Here are the classic movies playing in Cinemark theaters over the next few months.
