NOTLD is among my favorites as well. A sortakinda version that was a standout: I attended a live (simulcast from Nashville) Rifftrax of it at a big-box cinema in town and it was spectacularly funny. To me, anyway. I saw Amusement Park when it was playing at Sidewalk (cinema, not festival) within the last year or so. I did not read about it and really thought I was going to see Romero movie so imagine my shock, confusion, then utter delight when all my expectations were upended! It's rare that I get surprised like that and I'm still chasing that high. I immediately ordered it for the library and it remains a popular check out today.
The Amusement Park is such a curious thing! I'm really glad it's available now after being shelved for so long, but I wonder what Romero would say about it today. (I need to watch more of his films! I've mostly seen the Dead series.)
