Info

After finding a mysterious film reel hidden in their ceiling, the well-meaning staff of a struggling movie theater assume that the film is an old B-movie preview trailer and play it before a midnight screening of the timeless George A. Romero masterpiece, 'Night of the Living Dead'. When the film is revealed to be a long-dead Nazi scientist's mind control experiment, their audience of horror movie fanatics is transformed into a mob of mindless zombies with a fierce hunger for the flesh of the living! Ten survivors struggle to stay alive as the cinema is overrun by shambling hordes of the undead, while outside, ruthless government agents plot to halt the spread of the mysterious outbreak by any means necessary. Sometimes creepy, sometimes campy, 'Dead at the Box Office' pays tribute to the low budget horror films of the '70s and '80s. Combining the elements of these "B" classics with a fresh twist on the zombie origin, 'Dead at the Box Office' is a tongue-in-cheek salute to horror fans.

Dead at the Box Office Audience Reviews

Nonureva Really Surprised!
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
damian_zolos As one of the lead characters stated, "I think it's fine to line bad movies," and I couldn't agree more. Granted, there are some lacking aspects to the movie; poor sound recording and thoroughly implausible ending for example. Still, I can gladly look past the flaws to what is right about the movie. For a low budget indi, it's special effects are good, the dialog is solid, and it's a fun movie. It takes a unique plot line while giving homage to many of the genre classics. This isn't trying to sell it self as a 'serious' scary movie. It's a light-hearted B movie that brings some laughs and fun to an evening. Mix with a little alcohol, and this can be a great movie night.
iamfester_pi This is the epitome of what any fan can do when they really put their mind to it. You can tell both from the film and from the directors commentary that they had little funds or equipment to work with. Still though, they pull off a great story with all the essentials parts of a classic horror film of any sub-genera. Sure the special effects are kind of cheesy, but that's what makes a low budget feature great. It's the inventive ways that directors use what limited space, manpower, actors, and resources that they have that make this kind of movie so great. Eric's speech about horror movies and what makes Night of the Living Dead so extraordinary is pure genius. If you're a fan of horror this is a must own.
kyvelium Most original INDIE horror comedy I have seen yet! We need more horror comedy! Keep up the good work guys! This movie needs to be remade on a big budget level and I hope Hollywood takes a good hard look at this and makes it happen. Knowing this movie was made on a shoestring budget makes a person appreciate all the hard work and effort it takes to make a movie. Most norms out there have no idea how much dedication, time, and personal expense a movie takes to make. It takes a lot of dedicated friends and help to make it happen. These guys appeared to have all of that and hats off to them for getting the chance to make their dream come true. Anyone who bashes efforts made on this level should be ashamed of themselves! Those out there that undermine INDIE movies are basically envious morons who are too lazy to get off of their dead butts and do the same. If you did you would appreciate ALL Indie movies. Good luck guys and keep true to your dreams!
mrquint_74 I can honestly say it is the most interesting and refreshing take on zombie films i have seen in years. It takes a tried and true film genre and puts a spin on it that will leave you actually wondering where a zombie film will go. While dialog can be long at times. What zombie film doesn't suffer from this. The special effects and action will quickly grab your attention. But more then anything the well thought out story makes this one of my favorite independent films of all time. Zombie fan or not, Dead at the Box Office will leave you remembering what a good story can actually do for a film.
