‘Traction Park Massacre’ to World Premiere at New York Comic Con


Terror Twins, LLC has announced that its horror film, “Traction Park Massacre,” will have a world premiere screening at this year’s New York Comic Con. The screening will include an introduction from co-directors and writers Adam Dubin (“Murder at the Front Row”) and Douglas diMonda, as well as Fangoria’s Michael Gingold.

“Traction Park Massacre” was launched into the horror film fan consciousness at New York Comic Con 2024, when Dubin, diMonda, Gingold, comedian Chris Gethard, and cast members discussed the movie’s inspiration, the notorious New Jersey amusement park – Action Park – along with the origins and making of the film. One year later, they’re coming full circle by bringing the finished film back to the massive four-day event for its World Premiere.

“Traction Park Massacre” is a modern-day 80s-style slasher film about a group of young friends who encounter a gang of outlaw bikers and feral twin psycho-killers in a notorious abandoned amusement park. “Traction Park Massacre” tells the bloody tale of the chaotic and charismatic Terror Twins, Otto and Emil Von Metzger, as played by Kai Thomas Schulz and Bodhi Schulz, who inhabit the burned-out remains of Action Wonderland and hunt those thrill seekers foolish enough to attempt to find the remains of the abandoned park.

The film also stars Scarlett James, Tori Sen, Jacob Kaufman, Helene Henry, Lucas Hyde, McKalin, Sheila Ball, Alan Z, Ethan Paul, Aiden Figueroa, and Rob Cantrell, who will be on hand at the premiere and for a post-screening meet-and-greet.

Acclaimed artist Tony Squindo (Metallica, “Fortnite”) will be on hand to sign limited-edition prints he created based on the film’s lead villains, the Terror Twins. And guests will receive an exclusive “Traction Park Massacre” branded, limited-edition fidget spinner.

The film features a soundtrack chock-full of classic metal and a bold 80s-inspired score from Alex Skolnick of Testament.

“Traction Park Massacre” will have its world premiere screening on October 9, 2025, at the Javits Center from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. in Room 409/411.
