Knott's Scary Farm RIPS on Disneyland...

[Soulquarian]

To be fair, Dark realm is a Scare Zone, not technically a maze. And Temple of Sacrifice is labeled a "Scare Experience", also not a maze. It's fun that they put a theme in a que, too bad it's a ride no one goes on...

And you didn't list Axe Murder Manor there. I think that's one of the best mazes in years. Sets and talent were phenominal...

Yeah that Axe Murder Manor was pretty cool, especially the room with the dead girl with intestines grabbing the walls... At least that's what I thought it was...

Parody is fine - that's why I love the Simpsons. I just hope they weren't too nasty with Julie - she is such a sweetie! And yes, I have seen S.O.B.!

[Demigod]

Parody is the highest form of complement... sometimes at least.


What is that old six flags guy's song?

One of the guys( there are three) who writes the script for the hanging works at disneyland, he has for many years in entertainment. Verey funny guy I use to share a green room with him at DCA one summer. He use to host who wants to be a millionar

some of that seems to be in bad taste. Are these people jealous they couldn't get hired by DLR or something?

Actually many Haunt Employees work For Disneyland as well. They work the morning at disneyland and go to haunt at night.

Yes indeed. you'd be surprised how many... And Jeff Tucker is absolutely hilarious!

While I am the first one to sit back and take a good joke...some of that seems to be in bad taste. Are these people jealous they couldn't get hired by DLR or something? I was planning a trip to Knott's this month for the "Scary Farm", but I think I just changed my mind.

I'm in agreement with you.

The Hanging is all in bad taste, that's the point. It's extremely irreverent and obnoxious. Nothing is safe from attack at The Hanging. I think that needs to be taken into account before making a judgement. As for myself, the Disneyland jokes were the funniest things about it this year, and I love DL.

[Soulquarian]

It`s a show about hanging people! What do you expect? Reaver, I posted this from my PSP!

[Flaming Cabin]

REALLY funny stuff as far as Disney material goes. Everything else was pretty lame since they can't use the Cryptkeeper, Freddy, or Jason anymore...

.

Kind of ironic that they can use and parody the most sue happy Company on earth and their sacred characters (Disney), but cannot mock or use the Crypt keeper. (Yes, i know that laws protect parody as a medium) I'm sure if the word was out that they are slaughtering Disney characters "live on stage" that half the population of LA would show up for it.

Imagine if they BBQ'ed Jar jar Binks next year..

Sweet. From DLR? lol. Hey, staying off topic, SOCOM is pretty sweet...

[WRDup]

My favorite quote from last year's hanging was "I went to Six Flags and I joined a gang!" I was ROFL about that for the next couple of days.

I forgot about that part... funny indeed.

[SCUBAbe]

awe some if it sounded funny...like the painting everything gold ...LOL...it's all in fun...I

[Disney Wrassler]

I went there a few years ago. I miss Elvira.

I remember years back Freddie killed the tarot card reader "Miss Cleo". It was funny.

I was at Knott's Scary Farm last night and the annual show "The Hanging" took more swipes at Disney than Hong Kong on a holiday! The official title for the show was "The Hanging: The Happiest Hanging on Earth". The Calico Stage had elements on it to make fun of Disneyland. Stage left had spires and flags, and at the very center of the stage was a noose with the number 28 in the middle, obviously poking fun at the golden 50's.

Here's a list of the potshots...

• Reference to Disneyland pulling in guests to view fireworks. Two spinning fireworks came up from the top as well as flares and fire columns to poke fun and the Indy portion of Remember...
• Made fun of the Haunted Mansion with a fake doom buggy, then proceeded to use a laser gun (poke at BLAB) to shoot popular Disney icons, including it's a small world.
• One part asked why did all the rides end in a gift shop and who thought of that idea... Then a Micheal Eisner impersonator came out with Golden Ears...
• Made a reference to the audience being dumb, "Well if Disney can make them believe a Birthday can last 18 months...."
• BIG SHOT at Julie Andrews at the beginning... Won't even mention what they said! Nasty guy as Tinkerbelle flying in from one of the adjacent buildings. Stage began lighting up like it does in Remember.
• Parodies of When You Wish Upon A Star
• Parade of stars joke with TONS of Disney characters dancing about on stage and then being killed.

The Funniest joke was the one they had about Six Flags. The old man came out to his theme music and started dancing with a "Theme Park 4 Sale" sign. Monster came out and killed him...

REALLY funny stuff as far as Disney material goes. Everything else was pretty lame since they can't use the Cryptkeeper, Freddy, or Jason anymore...

If you can, try to go soon because the park is VERY empty. All Roller Coasters were walk on, and we did every maze, ride, and show in under 5 Hours...

WTF! I hate Knotts! Okay, let's all go to DLR and make fun of Knotts! See how they like it...
