The AM/DM podcast: Moving with the movies
Earlier this week, Malco Theatres quietly announced that it would soon offer haptic and motion seats to two area theaters.
In those special seats, movie-goers will get to experience “movements, vibrations and textures” synced to what they are watching on screen.
