Halloween season brings out all of the scary things, including horror movies. Paramount released "Smile" that is now playing in theaters everywhere.

Wikipedia describes the movie as: Smile is a 2022 American psychological horror film written and directed by Parker Finn (in his feature directorial debut), based on his 2020 short film Laura Hasn't Slept. The film stars Sosie Bacon, Jessie T. Usher, Kyle Gallner, Caitlin Stasey, Kal Penn and Rob Morgan. The plot follows a therapist who appears to be losing her mind after witnessing a bizarre traumatic event involving a patient.

The marketing strategy used stand-in actors to sit in at MLB games strategically placed where they would be in the background view of cameras (ie: behind home plate).  These actors had the blank stare and smile that is synonymous with the victims in the movie. They also wore neon green/yellow shirts with the logo "smile" on the front.
