Back of Box:
 
At a seedy theater in a sleepy suburban town, a group of friends get together for a midnight screening of an early 1970s horror film, unaware that the director/star of the film has something more in store for them than an evening of innocent jolts.  Good natured heckling as the movie begins is replaced with horrified disbelief when the movie's grotesque villain butchers one of their friends on screen - will they be able to overcome the killer before they are all pulled into his supernatural celluloid world?

Personal History

  • Bought my copy from Wal-Mart for $12.  After seeing the film I gladly would've paid more.
  • I've always liked the movie within a movie idea, but it's films like this and Cut that got it right.  I love it when the movie comes to life.  Much more entertaining, to me, than the filming or mirroring of a movie within a movie.
