Funhouse DVD Review

Funhouse is a Saw-like horror film featuring plenty of insufferable character being tortured. Some okay makeup effects but a pretty forgettable film as a whole.

PLOT SYNOPSIS

Down and out backup singer and celebrity ex-husband Kasper (VALTER SKARSGARD) is invited to compete in the Funhouse, an online ‘Big Brother’ style reality show. To rebrand his image, Kasper reluctantly accepts the offer. Together with seven other C-list celebrities from around the globe he will compete for the prize of $5 million. At first, the Funhouse is just as the name suggests, but after a few days the fun quickly turns when the first challenge leaves one of the contestants brutally murdered.

 

SPECIAL FEATURES – 1½/5

Features include a Behind-the-Scenes featurette and a Visual Effects Breakdown.

 

VIDEO – 4/5, AUDIO – 4¼/5

Funhouse is presented with a 2.00 widescreen aspect ratio and the picture looks fairly good for something that is low budget and includes a standard but effective enough Dolby Digital 5.1 track.
