I recently moved from the Netherlands to Stockholm. In the Netherlands, the main movie theater chain has an awesome thing called an Unlimited Card - you can go to as many movies as you like for €18 a month. I've been scouring the SF Bio site but can't find any mention of it... though movie tickets do start at 100 kr.

Anybody know if this system exists in Sweden and if so, where I could find it?

Thanks!

The only alternative I can think of is to get a monthly film package via a computer or similar device, which can i turn be hooked up to a TV :

Netflix (Subscription with US or UK IP)
Lovefilm (Subscription with UK IP)
Hulu (Free with US IP)

etc ...

Obviously you would then have to watch it on TV/computer rather than in a cinema.
And you won't be able to access the very latest films ...

One good thing with Netflix, is they have 2 different film listings depending on your IP location.

So lets say you signup to Netflix UK, and don't find anything that tickles your fancy.
You simply change your IP address to that of an American one via a VPN
(Other VPN's providers are available) then log on to Netflix USA and your account still works.

Obviously not the best solution, but I thought I would throw it up anyway.
As it may help.

They used to do a rabattkort that offered four films for half the regular price valid Monday-Thursday for three months from the first visit. But this seems to have disappeared from their site.

Perhaps you can contact them here and ask them if this is coming back?
