Kind of like seeing a military movie on Base. I remember seeing the movie "Grey Lady Down" when I was stationed at Naval Station Charleston (SC). It's about a sub that bottoms in the ocean and the efforts to save it. The audience was so vocal, it was hilarious.

Also, I remember seeing "Airplane" at a Base in TX. My entire tower (I was an air traffic controller) crew went to see it. Now THAT was an experience. We laughed our asses off. We almost got thrown out of the theater.
