Audience Member It's Phantom of the Opera meets creepy, murderous clowns. Once you get past the bad acting, it's good old fashion slasher fun with neat theater trap doors. By the way, the story has nothing to do with midnight, so I'm not sure what the deal is with that title. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Slashers like this one always have their ups and downs. Overall, I don't recommend this film unless you have a liking for clown antagonists. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Spooky location but that wasn't enough to make up for this useless film Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Quite possibly the most boring slasher flick ever made. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Saw it years ago on late night,it was very boring and it had one good sex scene but it was not the main character but the stereotypical cheerleader,.The whole movie is field with stereotypical characters.Thje bitchy cheerleader,the ass jock boyfriend,the gay guy ,the friend.The main protagaist who is always scared because of her mom being killed by the killer .The mysterious guy. this film is bad ,the great Christopher Plumber is in this crap fest.I hope he gets a better agent. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member I was in the mood for a bad horror movie to watch, so I figured I'd check out this film. Well, it was certainly bad. The funny thing is, this has Christopher Plummer and Margot Kidder in it, and it's just a typical slasher film, a group of high school kids (or college, I can't remember) get locked in a theater where a killer clown is on the loose. The deaths aren't that great, the clown isn't scary, and it's hilarious seeing Plummer trying to take this seriously when he gives a monologue near the beginning of the film. There was only one cool/creepy scene in the film, it was a dream sequence near the beginning, if they had done more stuff like that, it would have been an okay film. But instead, it's just a bad, predictable, and cliched film Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
