The Funhouse is a 1981 American slasher film directed by Tobe Hooper, about four teenagers trapped and hunted by a deformed carnie in a carnival funhouse. The film features metafiction elements, parodies of horror tropes, and explores themes of family repression and teenage rebellion.
Fun-loving teenagers break into a carnival funhouse for an overnight spree and discover that there's a bloodthirsty and deformed murderer inside waiting to pick them off one by one. The Funhouse can't help but be unfavorably compared to director Tobe Hooper's triumph, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
