TikToker Jeffrey Bryant (hittaa_jeff) decided to visit his local AMC theater in Orange, California on October 29 to watch a late screening of the 2023 horror film \u2018The Exorcist: Believer.\u2019 However, the 23-year-old found the movie \u201ckind of boring\u201d and doze off, before waking up hours later. The TikToker told Insider that he initially thought it was midnight, but after checking his phone, he realized that it\u2019s 3:47am and the film had finished 5 hours ago. Jeffrey then began to film himself walking around the empty cinema. \u201cI fell asleep in the movies and woke up at 3:47 AM not 1 employee on site they closed at 11,\u201d read the text-overlay of his TikTok video. \u201cNobody is in the movie theatre anymore, bro. Nobody,\u201d he said. He showed the lobby and snack area which was still lit up despite no one being there. Jeffrey said he was \u201ckind of in shock\u201d after discovering he was all alone in the AMC theater. Fortunately, the content creator found a way out of the building. Despite the front doors being securely locked, he managed to escape through an emergency exit as its alarm went off. Jeffrey\u2019s video has since gone viral with 1.7 million views and 248,000 likes. Many TikTok users flooded the comments to share what they would have done if they were locked up in the cinema. \u201cNaw, I\u2019m bout to eat all the snacks and see if I can figure out how to turn on a new movie,\u201d one person wrote. \u201cI would be crying and breaking windows because all the horror film characters are coming to get me,\u201d another said. \u201cI would\u2019ve picked me up some free snacks while leaving if no one there,\u201d a third commented. \u201cI would have just laid down in the middle of the floor and gone back to sleep,\u201d someone else shared.
