Exquisite Terror

With frustratingly little to sink one's teeth into, the film is just as forgettable as the formulaic films it seeks to mock.

Clever, crazed and contagious, The Last Showing is a film that is awash with tradition, twists, atmosphere, and charm. Does for multiplexes what Jaws did for water.

Rated: 7/10

"The Last Showing" has Robert Englund playing a rather sinister cinema worker wreaking havoc after being fired from his job. Martin and Allie go to a late night showing of Wes Craven's The Hills Have Eyes 2. Once at the cinema they meet Stewart ( Robert Englund ) in attendance at the concession stand who drugs the soda they purchase. While they settle into the movie Stewart is sacked by the manager but in an act of revenge begins to create his own real life horror film. After attacking the cinema manager, Stewart cuts the movie forcing Martin and Alley to take up the central character rolls of his home made horror feature. The tension build is really good with Englund clearly having fun with the character. Stewart's psychotic behaviour is diluted with playfulness that adds a sense of fun to the dark proceedings. With its really creative story I found "The Last Showing" to be an entertaining, fun, dark, almost comedy horror with vibes reminiscent of "The Abominable Dr. Phibes."

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

It found it pretty enjoyable for something that is still a straight forward horror movie, and doesn't go much off the system set in place. It was still pretty fun to watch as the plot unfolds in a pretty good way. Ending is a little predictable though.

It's not as bad as I thought. It has a very original plot. I've never seen one like it before. Robert Englund is enjoyable as well
