The movie theater wasn't large, and this screening room, with its outdated equipment and worn seats, could hold only a hundred or so people.
The audience was practically crammed together, watching a bloody horror film called Flower of the Little Shop.

"Never mind, then. Let's go." Lorna headed out of the theater.
