Tagline:
A freak hurricane. A sudden, rising tide. Thrill rides start by themselves, and can't be stopped. A chain of mysterious events shatters a happy holiday celebration. And terror takes over a vast amusement park.

A group of celebrants find themselves trapped in an amusement park that is being torn apart by a hurricane during a Fourth of July holiday. The real Ocean View Park in Norfolk, Virginia, scheduled for demolition by the city, actually was blown up and burned down during the filming.
