Best Dark Roller Coaster?

[Scaparri]

I thought USF's Mummy was cool and a good ride, but didn't meet the hype. I guess I had a little anticipointment. A dark coaster that gets little recognition that I thought was awesome is Runaway Mountain at SFOT. Seriously, that ride is pitch black, glass smooth, and has the crazy drop of doom.

I would have said the Mummy at USF but actually after being on the improved Space Mountain at DL I have to go with that one first...I love the new effects and it's very dark, plus the ending is cool

[drewelap]

I can see why space mountain is a favorite (because well....its a classic) but i have been on both and i have been disaponted on both versions (WDW and DL) I mean WDW's is basically falling apart becuase its so old and DL's had way too many right turns. It was too predictable.

 

Plus, FOF is a really great ride....but the one thing keeping it from my number one position is that half way during the ride you basically stop on the mid-way break section...and THEN you complete the rest of the ride. I have no idea why they do that! It's pointless!

 

so revenge of the mummy florida takes the cake!

I totoally agree I LOVE that ride, it was a huge suprise! It is just so much fun, and I love the drop of doom!

 

My list is as follows (in order):

 

1. Revenge of the Mummy (FL)

 

2. Runaway Mountain (SFOT)

 

3. TIE Revenge of the Mummy (Ca)/ Space Mountain (MK)

Space Mountain De la terre à la lune may be gone but nothing yet has beat the experience when it was new. It was so damn beautiful, original, unique, everything. Stateside, I'm fond of any indoor coaster.

You guys have all got it wrong.

Space Mountain at WDW

Am I the only one that likes FoF. Just because the themeing is a little...mediocre (Spelling?) doesn't mean the ride sucks.

[ECZenith]

I love FoF (and all Premier LIM coasters for that matter) but I find it secondary to Disneyland's space mountain. SM's overall experience with the on-board soundtrack and new special effects make it more interesting to me.

Space Mountain (MISSION 1!) at Disneyland Paris

Mummy at USF

RoRoCO at WDSP

 

But remember...

 

CRUSH IS COMING IN MARCH !!!!!!!!

I freakin' love FoF. I just failed to mention it as my favorite 'cause I wanted to stress that Runaway Mountain is awesome.

[Hercules]

Skull Mountain!!!!

 

I'll ride Flight of Fear next month, so, yeah....

[Shockwave]

When the mist still worked, X:\No Way Out!!!

 

But I'd say Florida's Mummy overall. That ride totally blew me away.

[shesaidboom]

Dragon at La Ronde!! Actually that was probably one of the worst coasters ever and I'm not funny, so uhhhhh...Mummy at USF.

[easytoremember]

I love FoF too. It is in my top ten steel. I actually put it infront of Kumba.

[PKI Jizzman]

Flight of Fear is #1 indoor coaster and #1 at PKI in my book

Rock'n'Rollercoaster - Aerosmith + coaster!

Space Mounatin

[coastrfreak2000]

My top three indoor coasters:

 

3)Flight of Fear- PKI

2)Rockin' Rollercoaster- MGM

1)Revenge of the mummy- USF

[verticalzero]

It was "Black Hole" at Alton Towers. Sadly this has closed:

 

"Revolution" at Bobbejaanland is amazing: Description below for those who don't know:

 

 

Trains: Single train with 30 cars. Riders are arranged inline in 2 rows for a total of 60 riders.

 

Features: Inside of the building/hall there were two movie screens illuminated by 70mm projectors -- one on the ceiling and on the floor. The track circles around these screens. Sometime around the 2000 season, the screen on the floor was removed and replaced with lights. Then in 2003 the same was done to the ceiling lights were removed and again replaced with lights.

 

On 6/17/2005 a new digitally remastered movie and projector was installed.

 

X:NWO gets no vote from me.

[coasterdude5]

Either Revenge of the Mummy, Chaos (at Opryland), or Blazing Fury at Dollywood. One of those.

[Disney Dood]

Does Journey to the Center of the Earth count as a dark coaster? If it is it's my favorite.

[IceDragon]

When the mist still worked, X:\No Way Out!!!

 

and the strobes and helecopter effects...

[itsme102]

1. Rock'n Rollercoaster- MGM

2. Flight of Fear- PKD

3. Space Mountain- Magic Kingdom,WDW

 

Will Mystery Mine count as an indoor coaster when it opens up?

[ConleyKE]

Disaster Transport! No questions asked.

[riccoaster]

Its got to be The Runaway Mountain even though I havent been on many indoor coasters the Runaway Mountain's crazy drop gets me every time plus i've been on it with the lights on and that drop looks wicked for a dark ride.

[bulldogmom]

Disaster Transport, Space Mountain.

And I know it's powered, but I really liked this indoor mine-train type coaster at Canada's Wonderland called Thunder Run- don't know if it's even there anymore.

In my opinion, take any ride, put it in the dark, and add sound effects and a light show and even the lamest ride can be awesome.
