Tourist Trap

Directed by David Schmoeller

Five friends are hunted by a creepy killer after stopping to visit a roadside museum in this slasher that counts Stephen King as one of its biggest fans. After car trouble, the gang goes to visit a creepy museum filled with eerie mannequins which may be alive. Director David Schmoeller's debut bares the mark of his teachers - surreal and shock-loving directors Luis Bunuel (UN CHIEN ANDALOU) and Alejandro Jodorowsky (SANTA SANGRE). Ten years later, Schmoeller would create and direct the cult horror series PUPPETMASTER, which also deals with deadly dolls.

Interesting premise, creepy murderer but quite predictable. House of Wax story is based on this.

Finally saw this classic! Sometimes very straightforward but often throws little twists in to keep you engaged. Nicely acted for the time and solid kills.

Creepy as fuck

Took a while for me to get into this, but I was hooked once things started going crazy!

I won't ever see mannequins the same anymore

‘Tourist Trap’ Remake in the Works from Producer Barbara Crampton! [Exclusive]

Every year, hundreds of young people travel the country… and disappear. 45 years after the release of cult classic Tourist Trap , Bloody Disgusting has exclusively learned this weekend that horror legend Barbara Crampton ( Re-Animator, You’re Next, Jakob’s Wife, Suitable Flesh ) will be producing an upcoming remake of the 1979 horror movie!

Alliance Media Partners has acquired the rights to Tourist Trap , and Crampton, the company’s Vice President of Production & Development, will be producing the new take on the classic.

Crampton is producing with Bob Portal , Managing Director & Head of Production at AMP.

The original Tourist Trap was directed by David Schmoeller.

In the film, “ A group of young friends stranded at a secluded roadside museum are stalked by a masked assailant who uses his telekinetic powers to control the attraction’s mannequins.”

Chuck Connors played the villain Mr. Slausen, the owner of tourist trap Slausen’s Lost Oasis. The ill-fated friends, well, they all get turned into mannequins, making for one wild finale.

Meagan Navarro wrote about Tourist Trap here on Bloody Disgusting, “This slasher with a supernatural twist brings the nightmare fuel in the form of deeply unnerving mannequins. Mannequins are already terrifying, with their life-like appearance and vacant eyes. But what if they unhinged their jaws and made eerie sounds as they closed in on their victim for the kill? You get one of the creepiest slashers hailing from the golden era of the sub-genre.”

You can watch the original 1979 movie’s retro trailer below. You can stream the film on various platforms right now, including Shudder, Tubi, Peacock, Freevee and AMC+.

And stay tuned for more info on the Tourist Trap remake.

Horror films under the Alliance Media Partners label include Old Man, The Seed, The Wretched, Jakob’s Wife, Amulet, The Endless, The Pale Door , and last year’s Suitable Flesh .

Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has four awesome cats. Still plays with toys.

‘Riddle of Fire’ – Yellow Veil Pictures & Vinegar Syndrome Bring Festival Hit Home in April

Director Weston Razooli made waves at the Toronto International Film Festival last year with Riddle of Fire , which our own Joe Lipsett gave 4/5 stars in his review.

Joe wrote , “ Riddle of Fire has all of the hallmarks of a classic ’80s children adventure film, mixed with the quaintness of a British fairytale.” His review continued, “In short: think  Goonies  meets  Adventures in Babysitting  with a touch of  The Princess Bride ‘s aesthetic.”

In this truly one-of-a-kind slice of visionary cinema, “ Three mischievous children embark on a woodland odyssey when their mother sends them on an errand.”

When will you be able to see it? Bloody Disgusting has exclusively learned that Yellow Veil Pictures & Vinegar Syndrome will bring Riddle of Fire to at-home VOD on April 12 .

You can pre-order the movie via Apple TV now.

After premiering in the Directors’ Fortnight section of the Cannes Film Festival, the film went on to close the Midnight Madness section of the Toronto International Film Festival and screen at Fantastic Fest and Sitges. It was shot on 16mm, and it’s Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes .

Vinegar Syndrome will be releasing Riddle of Fire on Blu-ray, so stay tuned for more on that. The film also has its own retro-style video game , as well as a card game from Button Shy .
