646f9e108c Parapsychologists try to make an inn haunted by an evil witch&#39;s ghost safe for guests. The script is idiotic, and the actors look and sound like porn movie rejects…<br/><br/>The horror is so boring with dumb effects and complete lack of suspense. It&#39;s amusing to see the main male character trying hard to be funny all through the movie with very sad rude one-liners. You don&#39;t really care for the charactersthey are just a bunch of boring cannon fodder.<br/><br/>When all the bad elements are all put together you get an incredibly idiotic movie that is fun to watch BECAUSE it&#39;s so bad. Kevin S. Tenney wrote and directed two of my favorite 1980&#39;s horror films &quot;Witchboard&quot; and &quot;Night of the Demons&quot;, so I had high expectations for &quot;Witchtrap&quot;. Sadly, I was left disappointed.<br/><br/>The plot concerns a group of psychic ghost hunters who team up with some skeptical cops to investigate a haunted mansion nick named &quot;Slaughter House&quot;. &quot;Witchtrap&quot; features some of the worst acting I&#39;ve ever seen. The acting is more wooden than a coffin. The only entertaining character is the lead played by James W. Quinn. He has some pretty funny lines and delivers a solid performance(not hard to do considering the rest of the cast&#39;s lack of talent). Yes, Linnea Quigley has a small role but she&#39;s wasted and killed quickly. However, she does show off the goods in a nice full frontal shower scene before she is offed.<br/><br/>The soundtrack to Tenney&#39;s films are usually pretty solid and memorable. Not the case with &quot;Witchtrap&quot;. Also the gore is minimal and the kills take place mostly off screen.<br/><br/>&quot;Witchtrap&quot; features an interesting &quot;Notice&quot; screen before the film begins telling you that &quot;Witchtrap&quot; is NOT a sequel to &quot;Witchboard&quot;. Why this was necessary, I don&#39;t know. The guy on the cover of the VHS box is Malfeitor from &quot;Witchboard&quot; though…and Quinn also starred in &quot;Witchboard&quot;…ah, screw it, who knows. This notice is also on the back of the VHS boxwell.<br/><br/>&quot;Witchtrap&quot; features death by shower head, &quot;Piggy&quot; from &quot;Night of the Demons&quot;, possession, an exploding head, human meltdowns, and a serial killer magician.<br/><br/>Till next time horror hounds and fright fanatics, beware the darkness…
