The Projector is a uniquely styled cinema that screens a wide selection of indie films, foreign films, cult favourites, horror, classics, arthouse, local flicks and retrospectives.

They also show films featured in international film festivals yearly which tend to attract film enthusiasts. The Projector also hosts special themed nights and offer bookings for gigs, events and other occasions.

The venue hosts 3 halls including: The Green Room holding 230 seats, The Redrum holding 180 seats (with bean bags!) and The Blue Room with around 100 seats. 

A bit of history

  • In 1973 the Golden Theatre was the biggest Cinema in Singapore and Malaysia holding around 1500 seats altogether.
  • The Blue Room was originally a church before it was converted into the cinema it is today.

The Projector screens films which are good for adults and kids alike.

The Projector is the most unique cinema I have ever been to. The vibe of the whole place is so funky and chill it makes me want to spend a lot of time there. I think the concept of The Projector is also really interesting because they don’t just show newly released films, but classics, foreign films and others from a range of different genres; better to please a wider variety of audiences. I’m always interested in the films there. Their wide range of movies encourages me to step out of my regular genre of movies and expand my interest in different types of movies. The films they show there tend to have ratings ranging from PG to R21 so people of any age can watch them. Usually I go to watch movies there with my friends but in the future I would also go with my family when they show films that are family friendly.
Overall, I would recommend anyone who is looking to enjoy a memorable and unique movie experience, whether it be alone, with friends, or with family, to visit The Projector.
