Many theaters are still not open in the US. Some have had to close again due to health restrictions being put back in place or simply due to a lack of people coming in. While many big-name movies are pushing their release dates back even further, or choosing to premiere overseas first, a number of movies are still determined to make their way to theaters.
There are quite a few movies out this week, and you can certainly tell that the Halloween season is starting, because many of them fall into the horror/thriller category. Also out is a film about a young man who does not let the horrors that his grandfather committed define who he is, and goes on to take part in the Civil Rights Movement.
