About Us

Nashville is a city on the rise: one that’s thriving as much as it is growing. And with that means audience growth ready to see blockbusters, indies, and all the movies in between – all on the big screen at Nashville’s most iconic locations.

From the historic 1925 Hall at The Belcourt Theatre, to the 70mm IMAX theater at Regal Opry Mills, the nationally-recognized neon lights that glow outside of the Regal Hollywood 27, and the escalator at Regal Green Hills Stadium 16 that descends down under to escape the outside world, the Nashville movie-going scene is unlike any other in the South.

With all of that said, we’re proud to present to you 615 Film: Reviews, Discussions, and Interviews – All from Nashville

Website founded by Keven Skinner

“I’m a former newspaper reporter from Alberta, Canada who turned to the internet a few years ago when I realized print journalism was super dead. I had a cameo in the pages of The Walking Dead  (issue #91) as a zombie getting a hatchet to the face – my crowning achievement. I created Fox Force Five News (now known as 615 Film) so I could write about whatever weird pop culture stuff I enjoy and I encourage my staff to do the same.”
