Popcorn (the movie) @ The Coolidge Midnite 10/7[views:2070][posts:5]______________________________________ [Sep 6,2011 1:31pm - boblovesmusic ""] bennyhillifier 1hr 31mins // directed by:Mark Herrier // featuring:Jill Schoelen, Dee Wallace This special 35mm screening of Popcorn is to help complete funding for the retrospective documentary and special features being released on the forthcoming DVD/Blu Ray re-release of Popcorn. This helps assist in paying the crew, the artists who have made the covers, the editor and all of the other incidentals not yet fully funded in the budget. The production team will be selling 11x17 posters of the completed cover artwork as well as accepting donations of any amount to help in this endeavor. Popcorn revolves around a group of film students planning an all-night horror film festival in order to raise funds for their cinema club. They decide to show a number of (fictional) horror films from the 1950's that rely on gimmicks such as 3-D, Odorama, and electrical "buzzers" in seats. Unbeknownst to the group, a homicidal maniac is stalking the theater where the festival is being held. A filmmaker named Lanyard Gates, who murdered his family during a screening of his only film in the 1970's, supplies the decoy killer character, since young Maggie (Jill Schoelen) may or may not be his missing daughter. |
