A friend gave me the idea of having the players participate as the audience, which fits really well narrative-wise if we stick to idea of it being a horror movie. Their reactions can shape the ongoing movie. Plenty to think about when designing.

Granting resources to the duly deceased characters is nice, but I'm leaning more towards a narrative approach. Flashbacks is a system I've considered, giving players the opportunity to add details to the story after the fact to give alive players an advantage.

The one-page tabletop game GRIN has been a wonderful inspiration for this, as it involves a card deck. Anyone who wants to do an action has to pull a card. If they pull the Joker, their character dies. They then get to draw 4 cards and can use those cards post-death to help other players.
