== Summary ==
A boy named Billy Johnson and his family go to Nickelodeon Studios to see the live taping of SpongeBob SquarePants, unaware that the animatronic characters have learned they are going to be thrown out because of their cancelled show. As the body count rises, Billy, his family and their friends must escape SpongeBob and his friends or to be doomed to get die.
== Plot ==
Billy Johson is a huge fan of SpongeBob SquarePants, a successful children's television series featuring four animatronic characters — SpongeBob, Mr. Krabs, Patrick and Squidward — along with their human co-star Jason, who dressed as Plankton. On his birthday, Billy's mother Lily and his stepfather Ryan take him to a live taping at Nickelodeon Studios with his older half-brother Jonathan and his classmate Sucy. Upon arrival, the family meet several audience and staff members like the show's hostess Sam and her assistant John, fan couple Tyler and Monny, aspiring young performer Miranda with her father Bruno, and security guard Lewis.
As the taping is getting ready, the studio's new vice president of programming Carlton informs the show's producer Lucy that he is cancelling the show after the recording as it does not go with his network's vision. After Patrick overhears this, the Characters' new software updates malfunction with Mr. Krabs kidnapping Carlton and Patrick killing Jason by thrusting a prop lollipop down his throat. Outside the studio, Lily learns Ryan is cheating on her with a woman named Sarah. As she returns to the studio, Ryan finds Lewis' decapitated corpse and is then chased and run over by Squidward.
Meanwhile, Monny accepts Tyler's marriage proposal while blogging the backstage before SpongeBob arrives and murders Tyler by gorily sawing him in half. SpongeBob leaves Monny when he hears Billy and Sucy looking for Squidward, taking them to the workshop. He traps them with Miranda, who Mr. Krabs kidnapped while Bruno's face was burned by Patrick as they were looking for Carlton for an audition. The remaining survivors learn about the Characters' carnage after finding a seriously-injured Bruno. While Sam finds all phones disconnected and the confiscated cells destroyed, Lily manages to defeat Mr. Krabs before she and Jonathan find Monny and convince her to join them.
At the same time, Lucy and Bruno are forced to participate in the show's obstacle course, with Bruno stabbed to death by SpongeBob with a key while Lucy wins before Patrick smashes her face with a hammer. Billy, Sucy, and Miranda meet the Characters' creator Stephen Hillenburg who considers his creations' actions justified by the show's cancellation and conflicted over freeing the children. Patrick brings Mr. Krabs for repair causing Stephen Hillenburg to get distracted enough for the kids to escape and lock him in the cell.
While looking for a way out, Billy, Sucy, and Miranda come across Squidward and convince him to help them. Lily, Jonathan, Sam, and Monny arrive at the workshop to ask Stephen Hillenburg how to stop the Characters. He does not provide any information, but the group hear music coming from a hatch in the floor. The others go down while Monny notices the mask of an unused fifth Character named "Sandy." Losing her sanity, she puts on parts of the costume and kills Stephen Hillenburg as revenge for Tyler's death.
Finding the underground passage littered with the corpses of John, the studio's staff, and the adult audience members, the group discover SpongeBob and Patrick holding children hostage while performing gruesome variants of their acts, like burning Jason's corpse and brutally murdering Carlton by ripping his limbs off.
Squidward arrives and chains Billy, Sucy, and Miranda with the other kids, but secretly gives Billy the keys to free them. Lily and Jonathan manage to destroy SpongeBob and Patrick while Miranda guides all the kids to the exit. Lily, Jonathan, and Billy meet up with Sam and Sucy before being cornered by Mr. Krabs. Suddenly, Squidward attacks Mr. Krabs and crushes his head, destroying him before deactivating herself from critical damage sustained.
As the police and paramedics arrive to attend survivors, Miranda asks her mother if she can quit acting class, Jonathan and Sam start a romantic relationship, and Lily demands a divorce from a heavily-injured Ryan.
Left behind by paramedics, Ryan gets run over again, this time being killed by Monny with the Characters' remains in the back. As she drives, SpongeBob is seen reactivating and laughing maniacally.
During the credits, clips of the Characters' performing are shown followed by a rat passing by two severed fingers, presumably belonging to Stephen Hillenburg’s.
