I have two movies in my queue that sound similar. One is a 1985 film called Demons, where two girls attend a special screening of a horror movie in an isolated theater. The film is so involved that it takes possession of the viewers and transforms them into zombie demons who attack other theater goers.
And, there is this one where some grind house aficionados become the unwilling stars of an old slasher flick when the film's crazed killer leaps off the screen to hunt them down, drag them back into the movie and kill them.
Now, I would never compare something modern to a foreign classic, but I haven't seen the earlier film yet, so I can't compare. I'll just judge this on it's own merits.
I was surprised at the first time the killer jumped out. No one else had a clue. I can't believe no one recognized the victim.
They recognized the second and third victims and thought it was a joke. The cop (Jon Briddell) and the doctor (Michael Swan) knew it was real as they were after Ted Radford, the director of the movie on the screen.
The double kill was brilliant.
Josh (Daniel Bonjour) figured it out, but the killer (Lee Main) outsmarted him.
Blood, gore, neat special effects and a lot of suspense. It was worth the ride.
