Brent's Knott's Scary Farm Adventures
socalMAN123 replied to socalMAN123's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Yeah, that defenitly scared me out of my mind. It didn't look scary, but after I was in it for about thirty seconds, I started freaking out. Great job Knott's, you suceeded in scaring the crap out of a guy who doesn't usually get scared! Thanks for all the comments so far, I'm still trying to get those pics up. ---Brent -
Well, I played it for about 20 minutes on Friday (had to leave to go to Haunt), and overall, I was VERY impressed. The graphics are amazing and the gameplay is smooth and very enjoyable. Also, the new weapons pwn. ---Brent

I wish people my age would actually pay attention to what they are posting. Personally, it bugs the crap out of me when I see someone my age post things that make no sense at all. Now, when I came to this site, I was also sighted for being one of those "pointless posters", but then I listened to what Robb said and my posts increased in quality. So teenagers, as easy as it is, listen to Robb and you won't get banned! ---Brent

^ You ride it. It's kind of unique because the actors can get some really good scares with you moving quite fast past them. They just sucked at it this year. ---Brent -
My favorite gum would have to be 5 or Stride. I like spearmint in both brands. Orbit is pretty good, I like their regular mint the best. ---Brent

^ Yeah, Dark Realm was really lacking. It has soooooo much potential though. ---Brent -

Hey everyone- Last night (technically this morning also), I ventured on over to Knott's Berry Farm for the annual Halloween Haunt. I had been waiting for this night for a while, so I was pretty pumped last night. My overall take on the event, IT WAS AMAZING! Seriously, this year, Haunt exceeded my expectations. Although there were some rough spots, everything else pwned! It was a great night and I can't wait until I go again later this month (hopefully). Maze Reviews Black Widow's Cavern 5/10 Wow, I've heard a lot of stuff about how much this ride has sucked in previous years, but this year it was not as bad as I've heard. It wasn't really scary, but I did see some of the actors spot on and using their enviornment to their advantage. The giant spider in the middle of the pit was amazing and moved very fluently. But, I've heard this ride is a hit or miss, and we were on the first train of the night, so the acting could have done better. Pyromaniax 3/10 *sigh* I had such high expectations for this maze, and I was SEVERLY let down. The acting sucked, there was little to no themeing, and the overall atmosphere was scary at all. It felt like this ride was rushed to be put together for Haunt. The actors weren't enthusiastic at all, trying to scare us by just saying "Boo". Their idea of themeing was a bunch of red and yellow flashing lights. This maze was overall very depressing. However, the soundtrack is awesome! Grudge 2 10/10 This maze is so amazing, so well put together, and the only maze of the night to actually make me freak out. The sets were very well-designed, the actors were AMAZING, and the overall ambience was quite creepy. This was such a good maze, it literally had me walking through it trembling. GREAT job Grudge 2 actors! Defenitly the maze of the year! Beowulf: Labryinth of Darkness 7/10 This maze has so much potential, seeing as it defenitly had the highest budget for all of the new mazes. It is quite visually pleasing, but the acting wasn't doing very well. They just kinda sat there and stared at us. If the actors could step up, this could defenitly be the maze of the year. The Doll Factory 10/10 Wow...that is all I can do to explain the awesomeness of this maze. It was so incredibly creepy and the acting was spot on. The set designs were very creepy and intricate and the Grudge girl from last year was VERY good. She was pefectly in character and her movements were amazing. The soundtrack defenitly added a creepiness to the maze. Overall, this ties with Grudge 2 for maze of the year! 13 Axe Murder Manor 9/10 This maze defenitly stepped it up from last year. There was a lot more actors in the maze and they were defenitly using their enviornment to their advantage. Some pretty good scares in this maze, but overall, the set didn't change much from last year. However, the acting really stepped it up and were running around, scaring every possible person they could. It could have easily been a ten maze, but it didn't have an ending, you just walked down a boring, brown hallway with nothing in it. But, good job everybody in the Murder Manor. Killer Clown Kollege 8/10 This was a very fun maze which was very reminiscent of Hatchet High. However, I thought this beat Hatchet High in acting. The actors were defenitly in their groove, working with their fellow actors to create some pretty nice scares. But, there were some parts in the maze that weren't themed at all and reminded me of the hallway at the end of Murder Manor. Anyways, the maze was great and the acting was spot on. Dark Realm: Lazer Range 5/10 This maze was just meh. It had some really cool sets and animatronics, but the monsters were REALLY lacking. They didn't make any attempt to scare us pretty much the entire maze. It was pretty dissapointing because this maze has so much potential, but I think they need to remove the lazer guns. It would be way better without them. Feary Tales 9/10 Wow, this maze really impressed me this year. The lights were darkened and the blacklights increased which created a much better atmosphere for this maze. The acting was much better than last year, they weren't standing around talking to the security people like last year. All of the effects were working, and it was really impressive. Great job Feary Tales crew! The Asylum 9/10 What can I say about the Asylum? This maze is just amazing. Hands down, one of the creepiest mazes in all of Haunt. The acting is AMAZING, the sets are AMAZING, and the entire maze is AMAZING. Once again, this maze proved to be one of the best. Red Beard's Revenge 4/10 Wow, this maze was SOOOOO much better last year. The actors this year just sat around and talked to the security. Sure, the sets were mildly pleasing, and there was one good scare, but the overall maze sucked. This maze has so much potential, but it didn't fill up to it. Mazes in Order of Rank 1. Grudge 2 1. The Doll Factory 3. The Asylum 3. 13 Axe Murder Manor 5. Feary Tales 6. Killer Clown Kollege 7. Beowulf: Labyrinth of Darkness 8. Black Widow's Cavern 9. Dark Realm Lazer Range 10. Red Beard's Revenge 11. Pyromaniax We didn't even bother wasting our time in Lost Vegas and Lore of the Vampire because they both sucked last year. Well, that's my take on Haunt 2007. I do have some pictures, but my computer is being pissy and is not letting me download them. I might have some pics up later, but no promises. So yeah, if you're in the area, come check out the best Halloween event in Socal! Until later this month... ---Brent

Most thrilling drop?
socalMAN123 replied to RIP Psyclone's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^Man, those Moser drop rides pack a punch! But, I'm gonna have to agree with kraxleRIDAH, Perilous Plunge's drop is the only ride in existence whose drop actually scares the crap outta me. I've lost my stomach quite a few times on that one. ---Brent -

Patriot Games 9/10 Wow, this is a very fun movie. Harrison Ford does a great job and the hostage situation at the end is pretty sweet (includes cheezy 90's music!). Defenitly a fast-paced, action-packed thrill ride. So yeah, go watch it. ---Brent

Well, I don't have anything to major, but I still haven't played Halo 3 yet! I mean, it came out on Tuesday and I already know people who have beaten the game. *sigh* Maybe I'll play it on Saturday. ---Brent
