A second person died on Saturday after being shot during a screening of “The Forever Purge,” a movie about anarchy and murder, at a California theater in what the authorities called a “random and unprovoked attack.”Anthony Barajas, 19, and Rylee Goodrich, 18, were each shot in the head at a movie theater in Corona, about 50 miles southeast of Los Angeles, on Monday, the Riverside County district attorney’s office said. The police said Mr. Barajas and Ms. Goodrich were together, attending a showing of “The Forever Purge,” which tells the story of “members of an underground movement” who are “no longer satisfied with one annual night of anarchy and murder,” according to a synopsis. The killers in the movie “decide to overtake America through an unending campaign of mayhem and massacre.” It is the fifth installment in a movie franchise that started with “The Purge” in 2013.
