Fight Breaks Out at Five Nights at Freddy's Screening
Chaos ensued in a movie theater after an early screening of Five Nights at Freddy's.
Based on the popular video game Five Nights at Freddy's follows a troubled security guard who begins working at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. During his first night on the job, he realizes that the night shift won't be so easy to get through. Pretty soon, he will unveil what actually happened at Freddy's.
Twitter user @jojoincel uploaded a video to the social media site of what seems to be a large group of teens getting into a fight while the credits roll.

The cause of the fight is unknown.
Although it's yet to receive an official rating from Rotten Tomatoes, early reactions to the movie have been not so kind.
#FiveNightsAtFreddys managed to fill my worst horror film of the year slot (congratulations). Coasting on nostalgia, superb animatronics, and great set designs aren't enough. Besides a few jumpscares, the poorly written screenplay kills any attempts to be scary and offers little… pic.twitter.com/MDpeV920et

If you wanted #FiveNightsAtFreddys to be scary or even all that exciting, forget it. Some things to enjoy (yes easter eggs), but it will be predictable to fans & convoluted to non-fans. Many puzzling tonal & narrative choices. The animatronics are cool as hell though! pic.twitter.com/ebO1AC5InN

It's not all doom and gloom, though. Some people have said that fans of the original game will get a kick out of what the movie has to offer.
Great news! #FiveNightsAtFreddys was exactly what I wanted. A gateway flick to both horror & camp comedy, and a clear "thank you" to the diehard fans.
Silly, slightly scary, somehow makes the game lore make sense, & a whole lot of fun. #FNAF

The #FNAFMovie caters heavily towards fans, leaving newcomers behind. The story is what I expected for a #FNAF movie. The animatronics are the best part of the movie along with @MatthewLillard’s performance. Nostalgic for long time fans! Average, but fun. #FiveNightsAtFreddys pic.twitter.com/hxO2tfAkzK
