Lone drifter Isaac accepts a job to look after his landlord's niece, Olga, for a few days in an isolated house
on a remote island. It seems like easy money, but there’s a catch: he must wear a leather harness and chain
that restricts his movements to certain rooms. Once Olga's uncle Barrett leaves the two of them alone, a
game of cat and mouse ensues as Olga displays increasingly erratic behavior as a trapped Isaac makes a
series of horrific discoveries in the house. Directed by Damien Mc Carthy. Starring Jonathan French, Leila

Recently discovered and restored 46 years after its completion by the George A. Romero Foundation and
produced by Suzanne Desrocher-Romero, director George A. Romero’s The Amusement Park stars
Martin’s Lincoln Maazel as an elderly man who finds himself disoriented and increasingly isolated as the
pains, tragedies and humiliations of aging in America are manifested through roller coasters and chaotic
crowds. Commissioned by the Lutheran Society, the film is perhaps Romero’s wildest and most imaginative
movie, an allegory about the nightmarish realities of growing older, and is an alluring snapshot of the
filmmaker's early artistic capacity and style and would go on to inform his ensuing filmography. The “lost”
film was restored in 4k by IndieCollect in New York City.
