Not even “spidey sense” could have prevented this odiferous attack.
A “Spider-Man” screening in Cartagena, Colombia was evacuated after one of the audience members suffered from an extreme fart attack.
The gas leak occurred on August 2 on “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” at the Cine Colombia multiplex inside the Plaza Bocagrande shopping center, Jam Press reported.
Everything was going swimmingly until halfway through the film, when a flatulent film-goer decided to let er’ rip.
The theater-goer’s proverbial Pumpkin Bomb filled the darkened auditorium with a horrible odor, prompting audience members to flee their seats in disgust.
Hundreds of film fans were reportedly evacuated into the hallway. Footage shows the aghast film fans milling about in the corridor alongside someone dressed in a Spiderman suit.
While the screening was not officially canceled, droves of viewers decided to leave before the end credits on account of the stench.
As of yet, the culprit has not been identified, although reports claimed they either detonated a stink bomb as a prank or didn’t make it to the bathroom in time.
Many viewers ripped the filmgoer for cutting the cheese during a screening.
“There’s no respect anymore, but I don’t think anyone is so rotten as to evacuate an entire auditorium,” said one.
Another wrote, “To ruin a whole cinema like that, only God knows what that person ate.”
Others labeled the anonymous wind breaker the film’s real “villain.”
The movie itself, on the other hand, is fortunately not such a stinker, according to critics.
“Spider-Man: Brand New Day,” starring Tom Holland in his fourth outing as the friendly neighborhood web-slinger, was voted “certified fresh” by 90% of critics on Rotten Tomatoes and by 98% of audience members.
Post movie critic Johnny Oleksinski dubbed the movie tonally similar to the Tobey Maguire franchise of the 2000s, which he called not only the gold standard of “Spider-Man” movies, but Marvel films as well.”
“Brand New Day” also delivered at the box office, raking in $927m in worldwide ticket sales, the Guardian reported.
This haul was the second most successful opening weekend of any film domestically and globally.
