Sony allows cinemas to axe 'kill Kim' comedy after hacker threats
Sony Pictures Entertainment has told US cinemas they can cancel plans to show The Interview, hours after hackers invoking the memory of the September 11 2001 terror attacks issued ominous threats against film-goers and patrons of the comedy.
The first chain to axe planned showings of The Interview was Carmike Cinemas, according to trade publications The Hollywood Reporter and Variety. Carmike operates 247 cinemas across the US.
