History YMMV / KillRiver

** [[spoiler: One of Zack's final thought before he dies is expressing concern for his parents.]]
* UncannyValley: The depictions of Kaptain Smiley, the cartoony mascot in the park, are drawn in an antiquated style and are creepy instead of appealing. [[spoiler: Made even worse in that the killer uses a rubber mask of said cartoony captain.]]

* AwesomeArt: The book's cover art is gorgeously detailed, from the skull with eyeballs to the dark backdrop of the water park in its mouth, the water flowing out of the skull's mouth as the four characters ominously float in their raft, it's very reminiscent of 80's horror movie cover art that one would see at a movie rental store's horror section.
