I recall back when I was a kid seeing a PG-13 movie, though I can't recall what I went to see.
As with any movie, advertisements are shown before the main event. But this ad was different, something that remained dormant in the back of my mind for many years.
The ad in question (if I recall correctly) was animated using CG. It was all black and white, and showcased a bunch of different figures that looked the same. They all seemed to be running away from something, as each one (or a group of them) would die in someway. .
The one detail I do remember is that the last survivor is seen running away from an alley, and a car approaches, following some sorta creature inside the car beckoning them to come forward. The creature then kills the last survivor of the previously mentioned figures and drives off.
I know this may sound outlandish or even fake, but this is something that was shown in a movie theater, and my mom who accompanied me to the theater at the time said herself that wasn't normal, and tired to avert my attention away from the ad.
Maybe I should've, because now I'm left with this incomplete memory. But, if anyone has any idea where to start, or has a vague idea of what I'm talking about, I'd love to complete this memory once and for all.
Do you remember if it was a trailer or a teaser for a film/show or just a standalone advertisement for something else? Theaters sometimes have their own advertisements so it could possibly be a horror branded advertisement for the theater chain.

I'm almost positive it wasn't for a movie considering the context, and the theater in question may have been AMC (90% sure it was). If not AMC, it was most likely Regal.
It may have been an advert for a product, but I can't think of any product or chain that would fund an ad such as this.
