The video opens with a generic British family of four who set off in search of fun to the “bemusement park”

But in place of fairy-tale castles and happy cartoon characters, the family is greeted with macabre, twisted dark versions of the Little Mermaid, microwaved babies, a guerrilla Cookie Monster soldier, and Cinderella's pumpkin carriage run aground.

Banksy's pop-up exhibition in the seaside resort town of Weston-super-Mare in southwest England is open until September 27. – AFP/Relaxnews, August 27, 2015.
