Blood Theatre is a 1984 horror-comedy film directed by Rick Sloane. It stars Mary Woronov, Jenny Cunningham, Jonathan Blakely, and others. The film is about a group of young people who go out to see a horror film at the grand reopening of a rundown theater. Little do they know that they are in for a night of terror and bloodshed. The movie opens with the owner of the theater, who is also the projectionist, practicing his ventriloquist routine on his dummy. Suddenly, we see that the dummy is not just a lifeless object, but it is possessed by an evil spirit that is bent on causing destruction and mayhem.

We then meet the cast of characters who are planning to see the horror movie. They are your typical group of teenagers who are eager to indulge in some scares and thrills. They head off to the theater, which is located in a seedy part of town that has fallen on hard times.

Upon entering the theater, they are greeted by the owner, who is dressed as a clown and appears to be a bit unhinged. As they settle into their seats, they start to notice that something is not quite right. The film projector keeps breaking down, and there are strange noises coming from the backstage area.

It soon becomes clear that the theater is haunted by the demonic dummy who wreaks havoc on the hapless patrons. The carnage begins when one of the teenagers ventures backstage and is attacked by the malevolent doll.

The movie then becomes a battle for survival as the teenagers try to stay alive while being stalked by the ghostly ventriloquist and his diabolical dummy.

The acting in Blood Theatre is not exceptional, but it is serviceable for a low-budget horror flick. The standout performance comes from Mary Woronov, who plays the owner of the theater with creepy and over-the-top gusto. She is a delight to watch as she chews the scenery and hams it up for the camera.

The special effects are mildly impressive for a film of this caliber. The gore effects are not overly graphic, but they do provide enough blood and guts for horror fans to enjoy. The cinematography is decent, with some effective camera angles and lighting that add to the spooky atmosphere.

Overall, Blood Theatre is a cheesy but enjoyable horror-comedy that will please fans of 80s horror. It has all the elements you would expect from a B-movie, including a silly plot, outrageous characters, and cheesy dialogue. If you are looking for a film that is both scary and funny, then Blood Theatre is a good choice.

Blood Theatre is a 1984 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 15 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 3.0.
