Synopsis:

Despite the fact that a murder has taken place during the screening of Murder Camp at a small town's only movie theater during a 'horror festival,' there are a number of prominent citizens who want the festival to go on. Thus, the town's police detective is in a perfect position to see the killer do his specialty act again...and again...and again. Meanwhile, a girl with a passion to go to Hollywood and become an actress (through the good offices of her film-director father) must deal with her wildly overprotective and puritanical (divorced) mother. Who's killing whom, here, and why?

Welcome to Holsten, B.C., a small town where no one is very happy. Two years ago the local movie theatre had a horror film festival, during which a local teen was murdered at the same moment and manner as the onscreen character. Now another horror movie festival is set to happen, and some people feel history will repeat itself. Sure enough, as the line between movies and reality blurs, the horror doesn't stay onscreen.

After a teenage boy is murdered during a horror movie festival, in the same fashion as the character in the film, the local citizens of the small Canadian town fear the same thing will happen as they prepare to hold another horror festival.
