Movie houses are small, usually one or two screen theaters, that mainly play independant, classic, cult, and other controversial films. Theyre also used often as screening places in film festivals. For example I saw "freedom to fascism" and "Battle Royale" in movie houses. Two films that wouldnt be screened in a movie chain ever.

Movie chains are the large conglomerate toilets into which mass distributors excremate blockbusters year round. Although there are a few gems occasionally.

Only medium to large cities have movie houses (art house theaters). Im lucky. I didnt grow up in a shitty part of the states. People dont freak out about a work of fiction, and there are about 10 or 12 movie houses within a 15 mile diameter.
