Synopsis:
A movie with in a movie as film goers watch a movie about a killer and his over protective mother while a fan of the movie goes over the edge and reek havoc on the theater.

I'm torn. Some parts of the movie were rather original take on the sub-genre. While other parts were a tad cliche and annoying. In the end it's an enjoyable movie.
