23 Worst Things That Have Happened In A Movie Theater

My boyfriend & I went to see the Evil Dead remake. A girl was possessed & started cutting off her jaw with a piece of a broken mirror. I couldn’t watch it & the sound effects from the movie made it worse when I tried to close my eyes & avoid seeing it. I felt woozy so I went to go to the bathroom, & my BF said that I stood up took 2 steps over & fainted on top of another couple a few seats away from us. When I fell on top of them I bashed my jaw on a hard plastic part on the top of the seat & must have knocked myself out from the impact because I didn’t come to until I was already in the lobby being placed in a neck brace on the stretcher. I had to be taken to the hospital by ambulance to get a 2 inch gash on my chin stitched up.

I saw Silence of the Lambs in the theater. At the end of the movie Jodie Foster is feeling her way through the pitch black. It’s one of the most suspenseful moments of the movie and we were on the edge of our seats. Someone in the back of the theater starts yelling “He’s got a gun! He’s got a gun!” Everyone was annoyed at him for being one of those guys that shouts at the screen. He was ruining the moment. He starts yelling even more and that’s when the crowd realizes he’s not talking about the movie. Someone in the audience had a gun. Panic ensues and people run for the exits. No shots fired but pandemonium and cops are quickly on the scene. No one was hurt.

I went to go see Batman v Superman. It wasn’t the best movie, but the film really had nothing to do to it. Next to me was a family of seven which thought it would be ok to bring a baby that cried throughout the whole movie. To the right of me was my friend who was pretty chill, but he sat next to someone who literally reeked of cigarettes and I could smell him from my seat. Throughout the movie my seat was kicked a few times and when I looked back I saw that there were two people sitting in the same seat. Then at the end of the movie one of the people behind me was giving head to the other dude. Overall it wasn’t that good.
