Hell Fest (2018) Movie Review

If a movie contains a maze or labyrinth, I watch it. Sometimes that means movie gold, but most of the time it means eh. How is Hell Fest ? let’s find out.

Hell Fest (IMDB) (Amazon)

IMO, this is a remake of The Funhouse Massacre from 2015 with a larger budget and a slightly different script. If you haven’t yet seen The Funhouse Massacre, I don’t want to spoil it, but based on reviews that would be impossible. A good publicist would say it got “mixed reviews”, never mentioning the reviews were mixed between bad, unwatchable, terrible, poor, and almost ok. Anyway, a groups of kids on Halloween night head to the amusement park for Hell Fest for some nice haunted house style fun. But, there is a serial killer on the loose among the workers who is making some of the experiences seem a bit too real (because they are !!!). Will the group be able to escape the masked person following them ? Will police and security believe them ( do they ever?). The best part about this movie is the ending and I mean that sincerely. I would give the poster a close second. My thoughts: 5/10. Only if it’s free and nothing else is on.
