Children left in tears as horror movie shown instead of Detective Pikachu at cinema

Children were left in tears at a cinema in Canada after the horror film The Curse Of La Llorona was played instead of Detective Pikachu.

The movie opens with a scene showing a mother drowning her child and centres around the story of a social worker who is trying to protect her children from an evil spirit. Suspicions were raised when the Guzzo Marché Central in Montreal played the trailer for Annabelle Comes Home, a horror movie about an evil doll beforehand. Ryan George who works for Screenrant was at the viewing and live tweeted the event. https://twitter.com/theryangeorge/status/1126626499237416966 https://twitter.com/theryangeorge/status/1126627311070208000 https://twitter.com/theryangeorge/status/1126629809386336256 https://twitter.com/theryangeorge/status/1126634465281957893 Parents complained to cinema staff and eventually the film was turned off and the cinema-goers were moved to another screen where Detective Pikachu was being shown. Oh dear, oh dear.
