I saw this movie in the theater when I was in Hong Kong last August. It was in 3D. The movie poster rocks but unfortunately the movie itself was terrible.....and I enjoy bad movies! At least I got some cool looking "Park" 3D glasses!

I just got the DVD from DVDShelf (or whatever it's called now). It comes with 1 pair of red/blue 3-D glasses. The 3-D scenes are only about 15 minutes total. A little 3-D icon appears in the upper left hand corner of the screen letting you know that the scenes are coming. Maybe it was just me, but I thought the 3-D effects were a blurry mess.
I had read a couple bad reviews, but the idea of a haunted amusement park appealed to me. Unfortunately, the movie wasn't scary and the sets were unimpressive.
Overall, it was pretty disappointing.

I'm a huge fan of 3-D movies, but I can't recommend this one at all. The 3-D sequences seem to have been chosen at random and no attempt to use the process creatively was made.
Worst of all, they used the poor anaglyph red/blue 3-D system, which does not work here at all. Even with the glasses on, I couldn't see a hint of depth.
Easily the worst attempt at 3-D in the last 30 years.
