Midnight Movie Marathon
A downloadable game for Windows
ABOUT:
This game is a love letter to midnight movies. It's a Raycast (in the style of Wolfenstein 3D) style first person shooter. It's 11 levels long and shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to play through.
Hints:
You need a movie ticket to exit each level, that's always in the lobby of the theater or somewhere you have to travel through to end a movie's take.
Eating pop corn is the only way to heal your health, always found conveniently in the lobby ( and sometimes as product placement in a movie)
Save often, there is no shame in save scumming!
STORY:
It's Halloween night, you head down to your local grindhouse theater for a night of light and shadows. The midnight movie is a triple feature: The Voodoo Snake Massacre Trilogy.
The Voodoo Snake Massacre
A group of grad students traveling deep into the jungle to make contact with a lost tribe said to practice voodoo magic, but instead they would become a human sacrifice offered to an ancient snake God.
Shot in the 1960's on black and white film, this low budget shlock fest was banned from being shown in counties all across the United States, it gained a small cult following being shown in midnight movies for years, but it wasn't until it was released on VHS in the 80s that people really started to take notice of the director's work.
The Voodoo Snake Massacre 2: COLOR of fear
20 years later, the son of the original professor who led the expedition in the first movie returns for revenge against the voodoo tribe, little did he know he would soon be thrust between two warring villages, and have to face the snake gods at the heart of the labyrinth.
The home release of voodoo snake massacre on VHS sparked interest in the director's work and generated funding for a sequel. Created in the '80s in glorious color, with an increased budget the director could afford better sets, more stunt people, and expensive puppets for the snake gods.
Voodoo Snake Massacre 3: Voodoo in space.
The true intention of the human sacrifices of the voodoo clan is revealed! Not as a prayer to the dead gods but as a beacon to robotic snake aliens. Can our hero escape the alien prison ship? or will they be an exhibit in a zoo on some distant planet.
In the 90’s every horror movie had to go to space, Leprechaun and Jason were in space so Voodoo Snake Massacre took the leap as well. Despite some passionate fans it still lost a ton of money for the studio and the directors never worked in movies again, but it still plays at midnight, they all play at midnight.
Buy your ticket, grab some popcorn, find your seat, and enjoy the show

Hello! I've been playing the game but I'm stuck at take 3, at the theater. I'm supposed to find my seat and I've tried interacting with all the seats and the "CUT" box, but nothing happens. Am I missing something?
Sorry you had trouble at take 3. You have to grab a ticket at the ticket booth to see the movie, it should be between the door of the theater and the ticket booth at the start of any of the levels in the theater. In the non theater levels I try and place the ticket in a place you have to walk over after the danger is over. It's a requirement of the game engine I used that you need a key to exit the level so I made a movie ticket the key. Also the pop corn is the only way to heal your health and is always available in the lobby. (with some hidden in the later levels for balance). Thanks for playing my game!
Thank you for answering! Once I finish playing it, I'll be sure to rate it!
