The horror feature Hell Fest has been in development for a number of years. Now complete, the film involves a masked serial killer, who sets his sights on a horror themed amusement park. Hell Fest was directed by Gregory Plotkin (Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension), from a script involving a team of writers. Notably, writer Gary Dauberman (Annabelle: Creation) has developed part of the script. As well, Hell Fest stars: Amy Forsyth (Channel Zero, 2017), Reign Edwards, Bex Taylor-Klaus and several others. The film's official film poster and early stills are hosted here.
The early movie poster shows a snarling face. Characters enter the amusement park through an open maw. Coloured in reds and black, the graphic alludes to the horror that lays in wait. Also, the early stills show characters oblivious to the dangerous situation, they are trapped in. Though, Natalie (Forsyth) looks like she has had enough as she screams from one amusement park ride.
Hell Fest was developed by Gale Anne Hurd's ("The Walking Dead") Valhalla Entertainment production company. Hurd is also a producer on this feature. Fans of horror can find the early promotional material, on Hell Fest, with a trailer sure to release shortly - here.

Amusement parks and horror films are no strangers. John Simpson's Amusement (2008) is one of the better pairings:
