Kids hoping to see Pixar’s latest effort Inside Out in an Ohio movie theater got an unpleasant surprise when the horror movie Insidious: Chapter 3 played instead.
Moviegoers at the Danbarry Cinema in Middletown, Ohio were hoping to see the light and fluffy Inside Out when images of children being tortured and murdered came on the screen.
Parents were refunded and given tickets to see Inside Out in 3D, but one mom told Journal News she’s still not happy.
“I got our money back but the damage is already done … my children are terrified and keep asking questions,” Jazmyn Moore wrote on their Facebook page.
A manager at Danbarry Cinema said an employee working in the projection booth mixed up the films on accident.
A mix-up like this has happened before, with a Colorado movie theater playing Fifty Shades of Grey instead of The Spongebob Movie .
