Sony hackers threaten data leaks in bulk, also warn of 9/11-like attacks on movie theaters that screen "The Interview."

Sony hackers threaten data leaks and much worse as "The Interview" release date draws near, and a new message compares the planned attacks to 9/11.

The full message of the threat is relayed in a Variety report:

"Warning

We will clearly show it to you at the very time and places "The Interview" be shown, including the premiere, how bitter fate those who seek fun in terror should be doomed to.

Soon all the world will see what an awful movie Sony Pictures Entertainment has made.

The world will be full of fear.

Remember the 11th of September 2001.

We recommend you to keep yourself distant from the places at that time.

(If your house is nearby, you'd better leave.)

Whatever comes in the coming days is called by the greed of Sony Pictures Entertainment.

All the world will denounce the SONY.

More to come..."

Recently, the Sony hackers threaten data leaks in massive quantities as a "Christmas gift" of files, named "Michael Lynton;" Lynton is the current CEO of Sony Entertainment. It is rumored the treasure trove of files come with sensitive information, including the estimated budgets of Sony films.

Salaries of the companies top executives, as well as medical records and social security numbers of employees are rumored to be included in the hacked Sony data.

The controversy surrounding "The Interview" is suspected as North Korea's retaliation for the movie's depicted assassination attempt on Kim Jong-un. Though North Korea is denying responsibility for the Sony hack, it has, on the other hand, praised the attack.

The New York premiere for the movie is scheduled on Thursday, at Sunshine Cinema, and has reportedly adapted to the threats. In related news, "The Interview" stars Seth Rogen and James Franco has also cancelled all media appearances in connection to the new movie.
