Popcorn is a 1991 American comedy horror film directed by Mark Herrier and written by Alan Ormsby.
College film student and aspiring film writer Maggie Butler (Jill Schoelen) has been having recurring dreams of a young girl named Sarah who is caught in a fire and being chased by a strange man who is trying to kill her. She records what she remembers on an audio tape and plans on making the story into a film. Maggie lives with her mother Suzanne (Dee Wallace Stone), who has been receiving strange, demonic prank calls recently. On her way to class, a boy she has been seeing named Mark (Derek Rydall) embraces her and tries to get her go to his place. Maggie shuns his advances, explaining that she can't be distracted from writing her script.
The fledgling new film department at the university has had trouble gaining recognition, so classmate Toby D'Amato (Tom Villard) has an idea to put on an all-night Horror-thon to raise funds for the department to have a permanent editing space. They set up shop in the defunct Dreamland theater, an old live theater and cinema that is to be razed in three weeks. Professor Davis (Tony Roberts) is concerned about the time constraints, but Toby has enlisted the help of Dr. Mnesyne (Ray Walston), an owner of a film memorabilia shop who has the appropriate gimmicks for the films chosen for the festival. There are three main films within a film.Mosquito is a 3D film, The Attack of the Amazing Electrified Man was released with an accompanying "Shock-o-Scope" gimmick (electrical "buzzers" in seats), and The Stench is a Japanese film released in Odorama.

Plot: Movie-maker-come-idiot Mike Hawk sets about making his latest movie, a Rom-Com called "Get Becky Laid", and is followed in his pursuits by documentary maker and film fanatic Philip K Longfellow. Mike Hawk also plays the lead character and has named him Mike Hawke - after himself only adding an additional 'e' to his name to distinguish the two. Mike's bitten off more than he can chew, and is followed as he gets through the making of the film, achieving it only through sheer determination and ignorance.
