Synopsis:
An audience is attending the last showing of a horror film in a small downtown cinema. Then they are terrorized by a murderer who begins to pick them off, one by one. The only person to notice something strange is the projectionist’s daughter.
Written and directed by Maxi Contenti (Muñeco viviente V, Neptunia). The film stars Luciana Grasso (El Secreto de Julia) and Ricardo Islas (El Que No Corre Vuela, Bailiwick). Julieta Spinelli co-stars with Franco Duran and Pedro Duarte.
“I’m very happy to be part of the Dark Star Pictures roster. And super excited to present my movie to the North American audiences,” said director/writer Maxi Contenti. “I hope they’ll enjoy the blood dripping screenings of The Last Matinee.”
It made its world premiere at Sitges Film Festival last summer. The Last Matinee will then make its rounds at Panic Fest and Cleveland International Film Festival later this month. It will also make its Canadian debut at the Calgary Underground Film Festival.
