Red Moon Massacre (closed: no ride) @ KSF'06 (Knott's Scary Farm 2006)

Sadly, I was not able to get ride-through footage of Red Moon Massacre. :-( I went on it early in the evening because I came upon it with a surprisingly short line, but I didn't want to tape it because it'd get water spots on my camera lens that would mess up my filming of later attractions (and I didn't have any lens cleaning supplies with me). I was planning to go on it again as the last thing of the evening, but apparently unlike the mazes, Knott's closes the rides several minutes before the scheduled park closing, and I was thus denied entry.

And unfortunately Red Moon Massacre was replaced in 2007 by Pyromaniax, so there won't be any more opportunities to film it. :-(

In this video you can see them covering up the Red Moon Massacre sign for the night so the ride can go back to being the normal Log Ride (albeit with a lot of weird sheet-covered things inside) the next day, plus some other footage of the outside of the attraction.

You can find a bit more footage of the attraction in Theme Park Adventure's 2005 video of it, but unfortunately they didn't do a ride-through either (perhaps fearing water damage to their camera?):

Did anyone out there ever film a ride-through of Red Moon Massacre? If so, please lemme know.

get water camera then go back on lol i enjoyed the light show you take real good footage.

[DanHarkless]

Thanks. Like I said in the description, though, it wasn't an issue with being worried about water damage to my camera, just that I didn't have lens cleaning tissue with me. I taped Pyromaniax, the replacement to Red Moon Massacre, last year and will be posting the video soon.

[althegamefreak]

thats sad to see the overlay for the ride replaced with a new theme pyromax. red moon massacere was better!

[DanHarkless]

Agreed. Footage of Pyromaniax coming soon.

[ericsan4344]

how is red moon massecure different from regular log ride?

[DanHarkless]

It had wolves and werewolves in it.

...with the skeletons and bodies of the mad man's victims. (up the hill torwards the final drop) There is a Police helicopter waiting to get you out of there (the effect is that ropes are pulling you up to the copter aka, going up to the choper) . Then, a costumed man thats supposed to be the mad man pops near the drop out with an ax making jabs at the air, then you hear the crack of a rope (the one thats pulling you up) and then you fall down into the waters below.........

[BrickstarRunner]

Red Moon was better

Pyromaniax....well, radioactive materials in a log based ride.........???.....some poeple may be total idiots, but it doesnt take a nutshell that those two themes DO NOT add up! Couldnt they come up with something else, like "Mad man's Cabin"?

Trapped in a cabin seeing your friends being torn apart in the Mad man's macheinery (the saws, gears, and what-not). Then you make a run for it through the woods where you get lost, encountering hungry bears and wolves, along.....

@BrickstarRunner well that happened before in the early years of the haunt, radioactive materials on a log ride called toxic terror back in 1988 (later on there was a radioactive maze in the haunted shack) then it returned to the log ride in 2007

[TheGamersFriend]

does anyone have the full ride

[JPegProduction]

brickstar that would be one of the best re themed rides probably at knotts.. thinking about it makes me wonder what everything would look like

[TheGodKingOfMusic]

at least i got to go on once before they put the Pyromaniax thing up. it was pretty freaky, the aspect of sweet and innocent Little Red Riding Hood going to see her grandmother in the woods while a Blood-Thirsty Wolf was stalking her seemed a better theme fit for Log-Ride.

[thecopykidofthestarz]

please e-mail this comment to Knotts!

YOU are a ginious to point out its not hard to do stuff out of thaught.

[hbk7up]

i agree with brickstar

[AdrenalineAddict610]

That would be so fucking awesome. WAAAAAAAAY better than the Pyromaniax shit.

[guy21091]

much much MUCH better story than pyromaniax. i cant believe they will be havng that sorry excuse for a ride back this year.
