This cinematic equivalent of a scary carnival funhouse achieves what it set out to do. Audiences can get in and out with little fuss and at least a few cheap thrills to remember the movie by.

Rated: 3/5

a cat-and-mouse game, without any of the strap-to-a-chair-and-torture shock attempts

Amusement might end up being the most ironic title of the year, because there's absolutely nothing amusing about it.

Rated: 0.5/4

...the segment with the dolls has its moments. Give the movie an extra point for that.

I got an HH Holmes vibe with Pere Pension. How everyone got there made no sense. But what was the antagonist's connection to it? The plot was there, just not well executed. I get that it was about revenge, but..... He conveniently happened to be on the road the same time as Shelby? Just happened to know Tabitha was baby sitting? Could have been a lot better as all the actors are talented.

This movie is absolutely god awful, and it's absolutely incredible as a result. The cinematography, acting, sets, etc are all good to great, but the writing is so unimaginably bad that it's baffling beyond comprehension. I have no idea how this screenplay or story ever got approved by anybody, or how this movie got a 10 million dollar budget, it feels like a high school video assignment with a budget. This movie is enigmatically horrid, and it's absolutely worth seeing.
