Funhouse, The

Notes & Trivia

 * Was first released to home video in 1987 by Good Times Home Video. It was released to DVD on October 19th, 1999. The film was re-issued to DVD by Universal Studios on September 7th, 2004.


 * The UK release of the film ran three minutes shorter than the US theatrical release. Excised scenes included extraneous dialogue between the characters.


 * Mace Neufeld Productions also produced The Omen IV: The Awakening.


 * Author Dean Koontz wrote a novelization of the screenplay under the pseudonym Owen West. The book contains a lot of backstory added by Koontz. Because of this, and the fact that the book was released before the movie due to a delay in post production, it is often mistaken that the movie is based on the book, but the book is in fact based on the movie.


 * Films that share similar themes as this one include Deranged, Basket Case, The Hills Have Eyes, Motel Hell and House of 1000 Corpses.
