I work at a movie theater. I work the concessions but I've worked long enough to know a little something-something about ushering and cashiers. And a little bit of what managers do. Ask me anything!
I don't know, are you willing to tip everyone just to get into the movie?
you're gonna have to pay the ticket seller, the usher ripping your tickets, the other ushers checking the theaters for any trouble
How much are you willing to pay to break the law?
There arent any camera's in theaters. But's it isnt about the couples. It's about everyone's privacy.
The trailers you see of people getting scared in theaters are all fake
I don't work at either company, so I don't know their policy. I did that very same thing when I was trying to buy a M video game and I didn't have an id and it worked. So that MIGHT work out
I think that if you know they can be well behaved, it shouldn't be a problem. A lot of the time, a parent doesnt want to see the same movie as the kids so they'll cordinate the times the movie ends so they'll meet up again quickly. We have spots like the arcade and the lobby where we have tv's as popular meetup locations.
All in all, it should be ok to have a kid go watch a movie alone, provided that they're watching an age appropriate movie. a 7 yr old probably wont be able to get tickets for a pg13 movie

I don't know about other theaters. But at mine's there's nothing behind the screen. Just a wall. There is a room by the emergency exit but there's nothing in it. If anything was stored there, you'd have to go in during a movie to retrieve it, disrupting the movie.
Besides, even if there was no one in the theater itself, it doesnt mean there's nobody at the projection booth. There's a possiblity they'll see you.

I'm sorry, you won't find any dead bodies behind the screen. If that's what you're wondering
