The Amusement Park transforms the thrills of a carnival into a haunting metaphor for aging and marginalization. Adapted from George A. Romero’s once-shelved 1975 film, this graphic novel captures the slow descent into societal invisibility through disorienting visuals and biting allegory. With Ryan Carr’s unsettling artwork and Jeff Whitehead’s poignant scripting, the adaptation confronts readers with the discomfort of ageism, privilege, and systemic neglect. While not without flaws, this is a unique entry into horror that asks us to look closer at who we leave behind.
