WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

A quiet drifter (Cage) is stranded in a remote Nevada town, where he takes a night-shift janitor job at Willy’s Wonderland, a once-successful family entertainment centre. However, he soon discovers that the centre’s animatronic characters have come to life and are trying to kill him as well as a group of teenagers who have also found their way into the building. Now, he must fight back against the deadly animatronics and make it until the morning…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Nicolas Cage brings his A-game to this darkly funny B-movie that should tide things over until that Five Nights at Freddy’s movie eventually gets made.
