Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The demolition of a real-life amusement park in Norfolk, Virginia was excuse enough for The Death of Ocean View Park. Factual footage of the park's destruction is blended into a fictional plotline by screenwriters John Furia Jr. and Barry Oringer. Mike Connors, Diana Canova, Perry Lang, Caroline McWilliams and James Stephens are among a group of funfair revellers who attend OceanView Park on the Fourth of July. It isn't long before Mother Nature puts on a real fireworks display-a devastating hurricane. Made for television, Death of Ocean View Park premiered October 19, 1979.
