Movies and More

As the leaves change and the weather cools, our theatre is full of warmth, laughter, and community fun. This Halloween weekend brings something for everyone — from family-friendly movies to spooky celebrations and timeless classics, there’s no better place to gather with friends and neighbors than right here in our historic theatre.
The fun begins Friday, Oct. 31, from 4 to 6 p.m. with the Maine Street Spooktacular, downtown Fallon’s annual safe trick-or-treat event. Maine Street will be closed to traffic as local businesses and community groups hand out candy, host games, and fill the street with costumes, laughter, and Halloween cheer. And rumor has it there’s a towering new addition this year — something bright, round, and very pumpkin-shaped that you won’t want to miss. The organizing team is still welcoming sponsors and donations to keep this beloved community tradition thriving.
At 6 p.m. on both Friday and Saturday, join us for “The House with a Clock in Its Walls” (2018), a magical adventure starring Jack Black and Cate Blanchett. When a young orphan goes to live with his eccentric uncle, he discovers a world of hidden magic and mystery inside a very unusual home. Rated PG; 1 hour, 45 minutes.
Then at 7 p.m. Friday, the Halloween celebration continues inside the Fallon Theatre with the interactive cult classic “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” (1975). Admission is $10, and props are welcome (just nothing wet or messy, please). Grab your friends, get ready to do the Time Warp, and close out October with music, laughter, and one unforgettable experience. Rated R; 1 hour, 40 minutes.
On Saturday at 7 p.m., take a step back in time with “Fiddler on the Roof” (1971), the Academy Award-winning musical about Tevye, a humble milkman navigating family, faith, and change in a small Russian village. Filled with memorable songs such as “If I Were a Rich Man” and “Sunrise, Sunset,” it remains one of cinema’s most beloved stories. Rated G; 3 hours.
