All the fun of the fair… well no not really. A slasher set in a theme park immediately grabbed my attention. Sure it’s been done before but empty theme parks are just creepy. It also must have grabbed the attention of others too due to its $40,000 budget being raised on Kickstarter, and throw Doug Bradley into the mix and it sounds like a winner. Unfortunately, a good idea and some impressive acting talent doesn’t always make for a good movie, did we learn nothing from Waterworld.

The movie suffers on pretty much all counts as the script is appalling, there’s very little direction of which to speak of and the whole thing feels as poorly executed as Troll 2 but nowhere near as entertaining. The performances leave a lot to be desired too as there’s no character development and everyone’s just along for the ride. It’s actually not far from a shitty theme park ride in its execution, from the outside it looks amazing and you cant wait to get on, then you get on, strap in and it’s all over in a flash and aside from a cheap thrill you’re left wondering if it was worth it.

So this movie isn’t great, hell it isn’t even good but there’s one very simple thing that needs to be taken into account… I don’t care. I love crappy horror movies that are poorly put together. I love the ridiculous gore, actresses who were only cast for their impressive *ahem* lung capacity, and bad guys that just won’t die. All the ridiculous clichés are on display here, sex, partying,lots of slashy weaponry, cheerleaders and jocks, masked killers and a high profile actor who deserves better but does a great job with what they’ve got. It’s shit but I did gain a new favourite insult “Ya dented can!”. It’s a cheap thrill that isn’t gonna be launching any new franchises but makes you smile.
