Go to Hoyts and a movie ticket costs $18.00-$20.00. Go to Village Cinemas and you pay $18.50-$19.50. The list goes on. But do we really have to pay that much if we want to see a movie on the big screen?

If you know where to go, you might be able to catch a new release or even an old classic for a significantly reduced price. Below is a list of some of the cheaper alternatives I've come across that would be in the running for the title of cheapest cinema in Melbourne. If I've missed one out, let us all know about it in the comment section.



The Astor Theatre
Normal adult tickets at The Astor Theatre in St Kilda cost $16.00, which is only a few dollars cheaper than the major cinemas, but still a save. Plus, on top of these prices, there seems to be more special deals at this cinema than there are normal screenings.

If you really want a cheap night, on Thrifty Thursdays and Wicked Wednesdays (which unfortunately aren't permanent fixtures) prices go down to an impressive $10.00 or $12.00. There are also screenings when tickets cost $13.00 and double screenings that only cost $10.00. Admittedly, few of the screenings at The Astor Theatre are of recent releases, but who cares when you're paying so little.

Deja-View Cinemas
At the Deja-Vew Cinemas , as you might guess, it's all about the classics, and at classic prices too. An adult ticket to one of these cinema's screenings will cost you only $10.00. It can be found in Collingwood.

Metro Cinemas Boronia
Boronia's Metro Cinemas offers adult tickets for only $12.50, and on Tuesdays that goes down to an even more affordable $8.00. If you're a Metro Movie Member though, you'll only ever pay $8.00 anyway (the annual fee for this membership is $20.00). Again, this cinema screens lots of older movies, but there's plenty of new ones in the mix too.

Sun Theatre
Sun Theatre in Yarraville has a similar ticketing system to the big cinema chains. Usually tickets cost $17.50, but instead of just one cheap day, it has two, with tickets only $10.50 on both Monday and Tuesday. Most of the films screened here are new releases, so it's a good choice if you don't want to miss out on the recent blockbusters.

Waverley Cinema
The last cinema on my list, Waverley Cinema might just be the best. Tickets here cost $6.00 or $8.00 no matter what day it is. It's another one with a range of movies, both old and new.

These five cinemas are my picks for the cheapest cinemas in Melbourne. Are there any others that you think I've missed?
