Parents have told how their children were left 'scarred for life' after cinema staff put on a horror film instead of a cartoon comedy.
There was panic in a Saturday-morning screening when 15-rated supernatural thriller Paranormal Activity 4 started playing instead of PG family movie Madagascar 3.
Youngsters reacted in horror as a 'flashback' scene from the original Paranormal Activity showed a bloodied corpse being hurled at the camera.

LOL

it's probably the best time they've had since last Christmas.  Kids love running about screaming in terror.

That's a pretty bad mistake to make. Poor kids.

[Hilander]

Hope it doesn't give those poor kids nightmares.

Ahhahaha!! woopsies, wrong movie! That's too funny. Ever seen Fight Club? Brad Pitt paste an adult movie clip on a projector.

Those kids need to toughen up. I grew up with far more horrifying horror films & I wanted to see more.

Could've been worse.... the  opening scene could have been accompanied by the soundtrack:  Bawn chicka bomp bawm....

At least they didn't get a razor blade in their marshmallow.

That's some laughable service there.

You can't help but wonder if someone did this on purpose

[Ugly1]

Oh man, that is so funny but if it happened to me with my son I would be pissed! It's pretty bad though that you can see a bloody corpse thrown at the camera just by watching commercial breaks.

What they probably were scared about was how bad the film actually is

Traumatizing, no doubt.

Kids these days are coddled a bit too much I think. No wonder they don't go out, they're scared of every little thing.

Horror movies were my favourite genre of movie for as long as I can remember. Even for books, I loved the Goosebumps series.

'We're going to replace their bad sequel with a bad sequel... let's see what happens.'

Yes, but why is this news? It's called a screw-up, it happens. And hopefully the parents were smart enough to leave the minute it started and get the theatre to put the correct movie on the screen.
