Pre-movie monster footsteps?

We had those at our theatre too, but it was different from how you described them - Ours were super-loud, more frequent and happened in a short amount of time.

OK, that make me feel more sane. See, I thought it was plenty loud, too. And it might have been more frequent than 1 or 2 every minute. What had me thinking that it was really quiet was that nobody else in the theater seemed to notice it, and even my friend was doubtful that it wasn't just from a neighboring movie.

Glad to know I wasn't imagining it. And by the way, it was a really awesome touch for this movie.

Yep, I remember hearing those. People expected a monster to burst on the scene because of it, and it was a lovely tease if you ask me.

Is it possible that it was sound coming from a neighboring screen??

There wasn't anything else showing in the theater I was attending.

That's what that was? I saw that movie three times yesterday and kept thinking that the movie was starting, especially right before the Star Trek teaser. I didn't hear the roar, just the footsteps and kept thinking it was in whatever movie was playing. Duh!

On my second viewing, different theater, different city even - same thunderous footsteps.
