Midnight Matinee (1988)

When a teenager is murdered during a horror movie festival, the local theater shuts down.  Two years later, the theater is opening back up with, you guessed it, a horror festival!  The townsfolk are not happy as the murder remains unsolved and they are afraid it will happen again.

We meet a dysfunctional family who are all tied to the theater.   Dad is a writer whose film is being shown at the festival, and is coming to town to introduce it since he's a hometown boy.  Kelly lives with Dad in Los Angeles and was the girlfriend of the boy who was murdered two years earlier.  Sister Sherri works at the theater and hasn't seen her dad or sister in two years. And mom is the projectionist and stone faced pain in the ass to daughter, Sherri.

Sherri is dating bad boy Larry, and Mom doesn't approve. Bob wants to date Sherri and works at the theater with her Mom, so he bad mouths Larry every chance he gets.

The film is fairly slow moving.  The murders all take place in the theater.  You can tell this was made in Canada as most of the actors have Canadian accents.  It's an okay way to pass the time, but nothing special.
