An anti-social drifter is tricked into a quick overnight janitorial job at Willy's Wonderland, a condemned amusement park. Once the sun goes down he quickly finds himself in a war for survival as the parks evil animatronics come to live with a taste for blood.
Nicolas Cage (Janitor), Emily Tosta (Liv), Beth Grant (Sheriff Lund), Ric Reitz (Tex), Chris Warner (Jed), Kai Kadlec (Chris), Caylee Cowan (Kathy), Jonathan Mercedes (Dan), Terayle Hill (Bob), Christian Delgrosso (Aaron).
Willy's Wonderland begins with a little plot setup for what little plot exists. A drifter driving through a small town becomes stranded when his tires are destroyed and takes a quick overnight janitorial cleanup job to pay the repair bill. Unfortunately abandoned amusement park Willy's Wonderland is the cleanup job and nobody told The Janitor that the furry animatronics come to life at night. The remainder of the film is The Janitor battling furry animatronics and saving a group of kids who snuck in to make trouble.
Acting was a bit of a mess here. Another role with Nic Cage not talking or acting like a normal human. Someone please tell him to stop taking these roles. Tosta was mildly interesting, as was Grant. The remainder of the supporting cast felt like they walked in off the street and found themselves in a movie.
Camera work, sets, and backgrounds are actually decent with fair attention to detail and good technical work. Action scenes were half a step from ridiculous unless you enjoy furry battles. Dialogue was thin, campy, and lacking any kind of depth. Sound and soundtrack feel as low budget as the rest of the film.
Willy's Wonderland amusement park was condemned in the movie, which should probably be condemned as well. With a ridiculous plot that is never well explained, lackluster acting, and mediocre technical work, furry lovers may be the only ones to find value here.
With some mild sexuality, violence, gore, and foul language, this should be fine for older teens and above.
