Part of Midnight Movies
From the brilliant minds behind DEAD OF NIGHT and CHILDREN SHOULDN’T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS comes the hilarious and bloody love letter to movie theaters that is POPCORN! When a group of film students devise a gimmick-filled horror movie marathon at an abandoned cinema, they unwittingly wander into the sights of a murderous psychopath who’s all too happy to use their props and tricks to his own deadly ends. Both a glorious tribute to the cinema antics of William Castle and a thrilling slasher satire all its own, POPCORN is a delicious bite of movie-loving magic — dig in and enjoy the show!
“Popcorn is such fun for lovers of schlock (intended or otherwise) that it hardly matters where it is set.” —Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
“Though it isn’t even trying to scare you, this is a very nifty black-comic horror movie, one of the rare entries in the genre with some genuine wit and affection.” —Owen Gleiberman, Variety
