Regal Cinemas Branford 12

Been here multiple times...havent been robbed! 2014 car. Just saying. Have not had a bad experience. Yes, near New Haven (highest crime rate city in USA!). Do not leave GPS, shopping bags etc visible. Just wanted to give another viewpoint, sorry for those who were robbed. As far as the theater, love it. They do special viewings/events/movies in limited release that most other theaters dont (Veronica Mars. Van Gogh Exhibition. Etc etc etc) and not really a bad seat in any theater. :)

Avoid this theater at all costs!



Regal Cinema doesn't want to be liable for the ring of thieves looting cars in the parking lot, so they won't install security cameras outside. Because of this, my car window was shattered and my car was robbed. When I asked the manager on duty about it, she said, "Yeah, it happens about once a week because Regal doesn't want to be liable for theft." (Installing cameras means someone has to watch them.) So the only way to get a message to these cheapskates is to boycott this theater.



On top of that, the theater experience itself is gross. The seats are filthy. Hair and dirt were all over the chairs and I was scared of getting lice from them. During our movie, no one was manning the lights and I had to go to the front of house to get the overhead lights turned off for the start of our flick. The tables and chairs in the concessions area had remnants of old snacks on them.



I will never, ever go back to this place. I would rather drive an extra half-hour just to avoid this hotbed of criminal activity.
