What's new

Saw Alive: Thorpe Park Horror Maze for 2010

At least they're trying to make it as realistic as they can. Making haunts extra sensory is good. Making you interact with things and adding extra senses such as smell really improves haunts.

Although using real piss is a bit far it's no worse than the tunnels in the queue for Colossus. :p
 
That news story was worth reading simply for all the comments on it. Some people are: too easily offended :lol:
... users of this forum included, it seems :roll:
 
This is REALLY taking the piss. (Pun blatantly intended haw haw haw)

Seriously, I wish Merlin would actually spend their money on getting a decent thrill ride instead of wasting their money on these stupid publicity stunts and then bringing in these family rides and marketing them as the most intense experience ever. These publicity stunts are beyond ridiculous now.

Oh Merlin. ¬_¬
 
It's also on Youtube.

It's AWFUL...

My Media Studies coursework 3 years ago was better than that...

Where would we be without Merlin's PR machine? :lol:
 
Have been waiting all day for this pile of rubbish! wow am I disappointed. Oh well, another week till another thing is released. Hopefully it will be better. Still, I prefer this to the video from last year with the scary red '13' box that killed the builders [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZOLSdKDJ2c[/youtube]
 
It's funny how with the Saw viral trailers they make a big deal about the number 13 when it's Alton that's getting Th13teen THIS year. :p
 
Saw: Alive is coming along very well. It practically looks finished. There are some pictures below of the works as well as some of the re-furbished entrance to the park:

Apparently a lot of the broken audio has been fixed with brand new speakers in places.

I love the new entrance bridge colours and the shark in the amity building. :)

Dislike the plain blue entrance building though. It's pretty ****.
Saw Alive looks ok from the front. It does the job. Although the barbed wire section doesn't look as good as it does by Saw the ride as it's smaller and just by the path that cuts through to Saw: The Ride.
That queue line looks tiny though.
 
I find the whole entrance paint job hideous.

The SAW maze building actually looks really good, it's just the connection to a francise of **** movies that's still putting me right off.
 
^ I don't know who thought it would be a good idea to just paint the whole thing in one colour like that.. FAIL.

Honestly, they should have atleast painted the window frames in a separate colour to give the building a professional look.
