I've never been to a movie where the audience booed. Walked out on, sure, but never booed. A revival theater showing of PARADISIO (1962) comes to mind.
To me, booing a movie as opposed to a live performance doesn't seem to have as much of a purpose; to whom exactly is the viewing audience letting know their displeasure: the projectionist? The movie theater's owner? Booing a live show, however, lets the performers immediately and clearly know their audience's reaction.
The closest I've ever come to something like this was in the late '80s, when a friend and I (and an entire audience) were laughing at a late-night Ed Wood triple feature, and a pair of all-black-wearing, pretentious, NYU film student-types two rows ahead of us turned back to glare,
because of course they were watching this
seriously
-- yes, they were actually
taking notes
!!! -- which of course made us laugh even more. When the last few stragglers filed out in exhaustion, we overheard someone say to their friend, "See? And you thought tonight was gonna be a waste!"
