By Eric Kiefer

Falkor will fly again on the big screen this September.

Classic 1980s cinema fans will get a blast from the past when "The NeverEnding Story" returns to select movie theaters for a two-day, nationwide run on Sept. 4 and 7. Several Long Island theaters will be participating.

The upcoming screenings will be the first time the beloved coming-of-age movie has been seen in theaters for more than three decades.

Each screening will include a new featurette, “Reimagine The NeverEnding Story,” which will show before the main attraction. Screenings will take place at 2 and 7 p.m.

Tickets can be purchased online here, or at participating theater box offices. Click here for a full list of participating theaters.

Participating theaters on Long Island include locations in Deer Park, Farmingdale, Holtsville, Stony Brook, and Westbury.

“The NeverEnding Story evokes a certain sense of adventure in everyone – the longing for a journey, a daring quest of bravery on which you learn your true merit through the winding road of unexpected challenges, is something we can all relate to,” Fathom Events Vice President of Studio Relations Tom Lucas stated.
