... there are plenty of Youtube videos capitalizing on the juxtaposition of horror within “the happiest place on Earth.”

There's that film that got panned too:

Escape from Tomorrow (2013)

In a world of fake castles and anthropomorphic rodents, an epic battle begins when an unemployed father's sanity is challenged by a chance encounter with two underage girls on holiday.

The film drew attention, because Moore had shot most of it on location at both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Park without permission from The Walt Disney Company, owner and operator of both properties. Due to Disney's reputation of being protective of its intellectual property, the cast and crew used guerrilla filmmaking techniques to avoid attracting attention, such as keeping their scripts on their phones and shooting on handheld video cameras similar to those used by park visitors. After principal photography was complete, Moore was so determined to keep the film a secret from Disney that he edited it in South Korea. Sundance similarly declined to discuss the film in detail before it was shown. It has been called "the ultimate guerrilla film". Rather than suppressing the film as Moore claimed would happen, Disney chose to ignore it.

Never heard of it! 90 minutes seems excessive even if the concept is something I can really get behind, but hard to imagine I wouldn’t get some enjoyment out of watching it. I found myself wanting to film the craziest parts of the rides myself, think I have some clips of the MIB one on an old iPhone. The fact you’re on rails and pass through for such a brief time but come so close to these expensive effects piques your curiosity in a different way as an adult, really got the urge to peek behind the curtain.
