THE new Twilight film has surpassed all expectations and proved a box office smash at Cleethorpes' Parkway Cinema – as fans fight for the best seats.

Since its opening day last Friday, Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1 has seen more than 7,000 admissions at the King's Road venue.

The film, which follows the lives of brooding vampire Edward Cullen and his girlfriend Bella, raked in £13.91 million during its opening weekend.

The movie, which is the penultimate in The Twilight Saga series, grossed more at the UK box office than any of the previous instalments.

Scott Marshall, general manager at Parkway Cinema, said: "A huge amount of advance tickets were sold with some shows booking up as soon as we announced the sale of tickets.

"The tickets went on sale three weeks prior to the opening and we had to squeeze in more screenings to accommodate the demand.

"It's great to see all the fans turn out in large numbers, with many telling me that they are on their second or third visits to see it."
