“Closed Circuit” (Italian: Circuito chiuso) is a 1978 Italian made-for-television social science fiction giallo film directed by Giuliano Montaldo.
The film begins with various people attending a movie screening and the staff getting ready. Some audience members exhibit unusual behavior, such as the secret lovers in a back row or the man who uses the restroom for a suspiciously long time. There are men, women and children in the movie theater. A western is being shown (Skyful of Stars for a Roof). The movie is not age-restricted, as the lady at the box office explains to visitors.
During the screening, a man who had sat down next to a young couple is shot dead. The incident occurs at the end of the western, when two gunslingers (Giuliano Gemma and William Berger) fight a duel and shots are fired. It is unclear who shot the man in the movie theater.
There's a shootout between Gemma and Berger filmed just
for the movie.
