Plot summary

Park manager Fiona is tasked with taking care of some former friends who won an exclusive private sneak preview of Halloween at Liseberg – a whole night, all alone in the empty park. But cotton candy, lovely rides and lots of laughter soon turn into something completely different, as they realize they are not alone in the park. And the night of dreams quickly turns into a true nightmare.

Not all bad

I love the Renaissance of Swedish horror, I really do. The problem is that every movie from the past years have been done in a similar way before.Also, the killer reveals never work. This one could be seen after the first ten minutes of the film. Even the twist they tried to add was easy to foresee.The actors did an okay job, but the smell of poorly produced tv-drama can never be washed away from Swedish productions.The setup is good, though: a murderer stalking teenagers in an amusement park, around Halloween, non the less. The movie didn't use all of this potential, though. The haunted house could've been used more effectively.

What goes around ... comes around and around it goes

No pun intended - it's Halloween season! Well if you believe the international title - which is true of course, when it comes to the time this plays. But it is just the setting - it could have been easter too. Of course it is a lot "funnier" to have a revenge movie play out in the scary season.The past is coming to the present to haunt ... well not us, but the people who did something wrong. That is more than fair to say. We can try to guess who the bad ... person(s) is(are) here - and by bad I mean the killer(s), not the morally questionable "victims" ... again I am trying to say or rather write as little as possible ... though I do think you will be able to figure it out yourself ... decent slasher ... weird ending if you can call it that.

A mediocre slasher in a fantastic setting.

A typical fall slasher, designed to exploit the usual demand for horror movies at Halloween. The film was directed by a little-known Swedish filmmaker and the unusual setting was the Liseberg amusement park in Gothenburg, one of the largest in Europe. With no big mystery or gore and a somewhat misguided ending, it's a dull, formulaic and predictable slasher that will unfortunately leave the audience yawning more than creeped out. Not even the deaths caused by the "doll-faced' killer are something, because they're all disappointing and somehow lacking any spectacularity. Also, the young cast turned out to be a failure, especially since they don't have much material to work with either. To sum up, a mediocre slasher in a fantastic setting and nothing else.
