Featured review
This film begins with a small group of high school students getting drunk in their cars on a hill overlooking the city of Los Angeles. The leader of this group is a loud-mouthed football player named "Biff" (Michael Cannell-Griffiths) who has a high opinion of himself and enjoys bullying everyone who crosses his path. His girlfriend "Jenny" (Erin Hayes) realizes that he is a jerk but, like everyone else in the group, tolerates it for the most part. However, Biff takes things a bit too far when he physically intimidates a student named "Sam" (Ashley Lloyd) into spending several hours in a nearby amusement park which has been closed due to safety concerns. This enrages Jenny who decides to break up with Biff and subsequently climbs the fence in an effort to help Sam out. What neither of them realize is that this amusement park is inhabited by a malignant being who delights in murder and mayhem and is only too happy to have two innocent people venture into his lair. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that I thought this film had some really good potential with good sets and a cast which showed promise. Unfortunately, not only were the costumes extremely inadequate but the script needed significant improvement as well and--coupled with the lack of horror and suspense--I couldn't maintain much interest in this film. Again, this film had some potential, but it wasn't realized and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Below average.
