I'm sorry, but I don't have that information on my screen. If you would like to wait a few minutes, I would be happy to look that up for you.

No, don't bother. Horror movies rarely have any known actors in it, anyway. But, thanks for offering. I think I'd like to see Family Jewels this time. What times are available?
