$8 Tickets for Eight Days at FoMo Cinemas

Overview

Back in January, Melbourne scored a new place to see a movie: FoMo Cinemas, a dine-in six-screen East Brunswick picture palace that boasts industry legend Natalie Miller — who also co-founded Cinema Nova — as a co-owner. Haven't had a chance to check it out yet? Here's your best excuse yet: $8 movie tickets for eight days.

Hitting the flicks just got cheaper between Friday, May 24–Friday, May 31. And yes, every ticket to every movie will cost just $8 during this eight-day special. You'll need more than a tenner for snacks, of course — which you can get delivered to your seat — but watching the film itself will be at budget prices.

As for what you can feast your cinema-loving peepers on, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, IF and The Fall Guy are among the choices — so you'll nab a cheap date with a legendary Aussie franchise, sci-fi that dates back more than half a century, imaginary friends and Ryan Gosling in Sydney, for starters.

Another drawcard: FoMo Cinemas doesn't play ads, but rolls out a pre-show reel filled with movie-themed fun instead.
