Keep on reading for all the important details of the specific formats.
4DX crafts multi-sensory ghostbusting immersion
4DX is unique to Cineworld cinemas in the UK and Ireland. So, if you truly want to absorb the impact of the Ghostbusters' proton packs and feel the heft of the classic car Ecto-1 as it pounds the New York streets, then Cineworld is the place to be.
A film like Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is tailor-made for multi-sensory 4DX format, which uses motion-controlled seats that move, shake and vibrate in time with the on-screen action, whether it's the ominous eruption of the 'death chill' that paralyses New York City or the triumphant emergence of new Ghostbusters Phoebe (McKenna Grace) and Trevor (Finn Wolfhard).
However, that's only one facet of the 4DX experience. Stimulating effects like water, wind, scent and strobe lighting are also timed to enhance what’s happening on screen, augmenting the human-on-ghost battles and reinforcing the nostalgic impact when OG Ghostbusters members Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson and Annie Potts step back onto the big screen.
Want to feel what it's like to step into the shoes of the Ghostbusters? Watch the following clip to find out – and remember to take your free ICEE into the auditorium for added fun.
ScreenX places you in the middle of the Ghostbusters' fight for New York City
ScreenX uses up to 12 additional projectors to extend the latest Ghostbusters adventure out onto the side walls of the screening room, for a truly atmospheric experience. Feel surrounded by enjoyably spooky paranormal activity on all sides as two generations of Ghostbusters unite to see off a dangerous supernatural threat.
Every moment of Ghostbusters-centric action, from the traps to the quips, the locations to the spectres themselves, will engulf, surprise and feel closer than ever. There's no need to imagine what ScreenX will look like – watch the following video and see how Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire will be magnified and enhanced by its ScreenX presentation. And remember: there's a free ICEE on offer.
Superscreen enlarges the Ghostbusters canvas via screen size and sound
Unique to Cineworld, Superscreen fuses state-of-the-art projection, delivered on huge screens, with breathtaking multidimensional sound powered by epic Dolby Atmos speakers. In other words, it'll make you feel like you're right there alongside the Ghostbusters as they fight for all they hold dear.
We put Superscreen under the microscope in the following clip as we examine its unique qualities.
