Now that Fathom Fright Fest and the Click or Treat promotion have come and gone, and Thanksgiving dinner has become Thanksgiving leftovers, Regal Cinemas has transitioned from spooky to jolly. With a combination of Fathom Events, Holiday Classics, and new films, there will be plenty of holiday cheer to go around on the big screen this December! Let’s see what Regal has lined up for your Yuletide viewing pleasure.
First, the Fathom Events:

Sunday, November 26 & Saturday, December 9 – Elf (2003)

There is also one movie that is returning to theaters independently:
