📖 THE STORY

Oswaldo Pickens, an independent filmmaker and owner of the Saligia Film House has been reported missing.

Every Friday night, a peculiar film will start playing inside at the stroke of midnight. There is an urban legend that during Mr. Pickens last trip, he obtained a "cursed" film which could explain his disappearance and recent supernatural activity. Oswald fiancée has contacted you in hopes that you might be able to break in and find out the truth about what happened to him – or at least to retrieve the film and end this curse.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • The minute we stepped inside we were ready to order our drinks & popcorn at the concession stand and head to our seats in the movie theater! The set design had an eerie 80's ambience filled with a variety of nostalgic films. We definitely got the feeling of being inside an abandoned theatre.

  • The puzzle designs all pertained to the movie industry with a clever usage of movie theatre props to decipher. There was a good mixture inside this room from the abandoned traditional lock experience to the secret tech reveals.

  • With a really cool set design and creative puzzles to accommodate, the storyline has got to be extremely unique. We felt that the backstory for "Last Showing" had a mysterious intrigue to it and like most peculiar scenarios we wanted to unravel the mystery!

  • One particular prop in the latter part of the game was implemented really well to give us that "surprising" ending.


🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • Some parts of the room felt like it needed some up-keeping. The gamemaster informed us at the beginning of the game that wires shouldn't be touched but we didn't expect to find some open ended ones under the tables/in cabinets.

  • Being that this is a mall location, there's a lot of traffic and noise throughout the day. We were able to hear outside noise while playing this game which could took away from the immersion. An easy fix might be to raise the ambient music to drown the surrounding noise out.


🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

Throughout all the escape rooms that we've played, it's rare to come across a movie theater-themed one. The last similar themed escape room that we played was Codeword Escape's "Movie Theater Mayhem". So choosing the "Last Showing" was a no-brainer for us especially when there's something supernatural involved! Although we wouldn't classify this room as horror-themed, there is no guarantee that you won't let out a little squeal at the end 😝.
