Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
An ingenious and spoofy little shocker that with knowing affection pays tribute to irresistibly schlocky vintage exploitation pix.

Popcorn seems to be a case of too many ideas; the basic story could probably have made a very effective short.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
The film's metafiction and sense of intertextuality with other horror movies, as well as the genre itself, really sells the entire horrific deal.

Father Son Holy Gore
While it's not campy or spoofy enough to be worth its salt, this campy, spoofy horror movie shows some ingenuity and generates an occasional controllable chuckle.

It is the recreation of these old horror movies that provide Popcorn with its few inspired moments... Unhappily, the real movie proceeds in the interim.

It's just sad that it's not an iconic or even memorable slasher title in the sub-genre.

Cinema Crazed
The festival structure gives director Mark Herrier a chance to parody the delirious contrivances of '50s black and white horror to some effect, but the mock scenes are never as funny as the real thing.

Product Description:
Maggie (Jill Schoelen) has been suffering recently from terrifying and realistic dreams. When film students hold a "horror-thon" to raise money for their department, they discover a film from the 1960s called THE POSSESSOR which mirrors the events in Maggie's nightmares. The director of THE POSSESSOR was a maniac and a mass-murderer who killed his wife before an audience and then burned them all alive. Now the students themselves are the victims of a real psychotic killer whose crimes are inspired by the gruesome horror movie.
