Movie fans and Choc Top lovers don't have to wait much longer as the Horsham Centre Cinemas reopens Friday, with limited seating due to COVID-19 restrictions.
After months of closure, Horsham Centre Cinemas manager Kerry Bolwell said they will be showcasing various new movies with a 20 person limit per cinema.
"Horsham is in an area that hasn't really been hit by the coronavirus so we decided to still reopen even though the government retracted the 50 people rule," Ms Bolwell said.
"We are getting some fantastic movies that are from smaller independent distributors."
The new cinema program includes Red Shoes and the 7 Dwarfs, I Still Believe, The Legend of the Five, Bait, The Wretched, The Current War and Brock Over the Top.

Ms Bolwell said people will be ushered into the cinema and asked to sit in specific spots.
"Staff will also be limiting the amount of people in the foyer, wiping down seats and monitoring social distancing," Ms Bolwell said.
"To avoid disappointment we are encouraging people to book ahead of time.
"We will also continue to do takeaway popcorn and ice creams so people can still have movie nights at home."
