I just finished Twentieth Anniversary Screening, a novella by Jeff Strand that earned him a Bram Stoker Award. It’s crazy short but won the long-form award, go figure. It’s a horror-comedy story in the mockumentary style. A psycho becomes obsessed with a trashy slasher flick and tries to kill people in the theater in the same way as the on-screen killer does. Twenty years go by and the sleazy owner of the theater wants to cash in, so he organizes a screening of the film…only for a psycho to ruin the night by trying to recreate the original attempt at killing…only for two more psychos to ruin the whole thing by also trying to recreate the original attempt. Horror and comedy ensues. Great, quick read.
