Alien at the Movies

Showdown at the Grand

Movie theater owner, George Fuller (Terrence Howard) is being squeezed by a big corporation trying to buyout his beloved retro art deco Warner Grand Theater. This theater is his passion where he promotes his favorite action star, Claude Luc Halladay (Dolph Lundgren) & low budget cheesy films. Fuller even collects Halladay film memorabilia & enshrines them at his theater. Desperate to boost attendance, Fuller invites Halladay for a personal appearance. Meanwhile, the corporate goons are sent to persuade Fuller to sign over the deed to his property, by force in necessary. This one is played out like an old time western. This film is also a tribute to those old movie houses & to those schlocky B movie films.

Alien gives it 2½ “Necropolis” stars out of 4.
