2010 Haunt Reviews: Haunted Field of Screams

Haunted Field of Screams
104th and Riverdale
Thornton, CO

Haunted Field of Screams is a solid but unspectacular haunt, larger than most and populated with a small army of actors, but featuring a bit too much repetition and generally unimpressive makeup and costumes. The basic structure is a walk through a cornfield, with periodic trips through various small buildings. The focus of the haunt is on the cornfield itself, as one would expect - after all, it provides a sort of production value that you can't easily recreate. Unfortunately, it's the most repetitive and dull portion - someone steps out of the corn, maybe yells or growls a bit, rinse and repeat. The varied environments inside the buildings allow for a little more variety, so it would have been nice to see more of that. Still, if you have a thing about corn, or you're a jumpy sort to begin with, you'll definitely get your money's worth out of this one.

7/10
