This year’s “Halfway to Halloween” is getting a scary reinvention.

Blumhouse-Atomic Monster, New Line Cinema and Dolby Cinemas at AMC are partnering for a premiere event for “Lee Cronin’s The Mummy” on April 16 at 7 p.m. It will take place at 183 AMC Theatres in 47 cities nationwide. Tickets are now available.

“I wanted to make a movie that gets under your skin in the most literal way possible,” writer-director-executive producer Lee Cronin said in a statement. “There are images in this film that are going to make you look away and not be able to stop looking at the same time. Experiencing that in Dolby, surrounded by a crowd who has no idea what’s coming, on opening night, will be unforgettable.”
