You can't simply call a Javascript variable inside your HTML; you'll need to have it written by Javascript. So, try this:
<PARAM name="SRC" VALUE='<script>document.write(movieVar)</script>'>
<EMBED SRC='<script>document.write(movieVar)</script>'...>
Welcome to WebmasterWorld, thunter.

Maybe yes, write the whole thing, or bits like this:
<script>
document.write('<PARAM name="SRC" VALUE="'+movieVar+'">')</script>
