That would work when it was open:

Warning: While this review is okay, some of Theme Park Review's other articals are Not Safe For Work.  Bluesad

(Actually security is supposed to be pretty tight; it might be funny to see a family chased around an abandoned park by an angry security guard.  Perhaps they were looking for Tokyo Disneyland, requested directions for a Japanese Disneyland, and wound up here.)

I'm thinking one of those frat party movies...

Ocean View Park was a real place, until somebody made a movie about it...

From the land where Fabio collided with a duck! :-D

They should allow the homeless to live in abandoned theme parks.

That place reminds me of the eerie carnival in Something Wicked This Way Comes.  Buggedout

I find I'm so excited that I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel. A free man at a start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.

It had a sister park: Yokohama Dreamland

That park was closed in 2003(?).  They tore it down....to build a prison.   Smile

Pics here: http://www.rcdb.com/5000.htm

Edit: After further research, I'm not sure what they built there.  They might have built a used car auction site and a school.  A prison sounds funnier though, so it sticks out.

Something about the idea of a run down abandoned theme park just screams "horror movie" to me.

Here's a movie idea:
Ghosts of the people who died in this park come back and start a zombie like feeding frenzy on the inmates of the new prison.
G.A. Romero should direct it!

If you want the survivors to stumble on Disneyland/World, it would work.

Here's a park which looks like the Apocalypse already happened:

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
