I first saw this in the early 90s on a vhs.
Revisited it recently.
This film came aft the success of FT13 n during the era of slashers.
Here too, teens r chased n killed off but the settings n the reason for slashing is different.
Nothing happens for entire 45 mins n when the action picks up, the film offers no gory or inventive kills n the body count is very low.
Tension n suspense is almost nada.
The film is about four teens who stay back in an amusement park's dark ride after the closing hours but they get trapped aft witnessing a murder.
Expectations were sky high aft Hooper's successful TCM. Hooper failed to get a good editor. This movie is a perfect example of a slipshod editing.
Why we (audiences) were shown the entire trip around the carnival
Why were we shown the kid venturing out n then the kid roaming around in the amusement park
Why were we shown the guy in the car telling the kid not to venture out
Why were we shown the guy calling up the parents to pick up the boy
What was the significance of scene with the beggar lady preaching in the bathroom
Is this film suppose to be a morality tale - teens who do not listen to their parents, pay the price or teens who steal pay the price.
