Popcorn (1991)
I've honestly never even heard of this one before. I saw it listed on the my streaming horror channel (I'm in love with it), and checked it out. Wasn't breath-taking, but it was entertaining - which was what I was looking for. I really dig movies set at theatres. Something about the atmosphere. The films showcased in this movie had me wondering if they were infact real. I know there were similiar films, and similiar gags used during those film runs - did they just parody them here? Or are these films actually out there, as-shown? The twist and ending as a whole sort of left me underwhelmed, but with such a corny premise I wasn't expecting anything great. To my surprise, I was most entertained not during the deaths or the 'tense' moments, but during the film festival preperations and the audience's reactions.
