Midnight at the movies

Have that burning urge to see the next big movie after an adventurous undertaking?

(If 14 hours from Manila to the US isn’t, what is?)

For those who find pleasure in violence and gore, give yourself some well-earned respect and watch this. The film’s a nod to all those cliché horror and gore-infested flicks and yet it still brings something new to the ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer/Urban Legend/Scream' crowd.

SYNOPSIS

Midnight Movie will have audiences squirming in their seats, as the killer from the movie emerges from the screen to hunt down each viewer one-by-one before dragging their dead bodies back into the film to be tortured for eternity.

At a run down theater in a sleepy suburban town, a group of friends get together for a midnight screening of an early 1970s horror film. What they do not know is that the Director/Star of the film has something more in store for them than just a movie.

While he is thought to have died five years earlier in a psych ward massacre, the detective and doctor who witnessed the aftermath of the bloodbath suspect that the director was not a victim, but the perpetrator of the killings and is still on the loose.

What none of them understand is that he has enshrined his soul into the film itself.

As the film starts, the kids heckle the old black-and-white scenes, but are jolted when the movie's gruesome killer butchers one of their friends on screen! They realize that it is not the prank that they had hoped it was as they soon become the stars of the very movie they are watching on the screen.

Caught between the world of reality and the screen's flickering shadows, these unsuspecting viewers fight to stay alive in the locked theater.
