Rollercoaster (1977)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope/Sensurround 118m
Director: James Goldstone
Cast: George Segal, Timothy Bottoms, Richard Widmark
Synopsis:
A theme park becomes the target of sabotage for a lone madman.
Review:
Moderately efficient re-run of Two Minute Warning in the 70s disaster cycle. The killer is differently motivated and the tension well caught, thanks in part to Segal's committed contribution, but there are tasteless false starts played on the audience who presumably relish the prospect of wholesale mayhem only to have it taken from them.
