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.

This was a pretty good horror/theiller. The characters were not unlikable. The movie starts slow time is devoted to build the characters up in a one dimensional plan, but they weren't too stereotypical. The movie launches forward with a definitive horror moment , which leads to a twist that i absolutely didn't see coming. . . And it was awesome! But then there was another twist shortly after. . . and you wonder where the movie could go next. . . . And then there is ANOTHER major twist which changes the direction into Joyride vibes. Which lead me to hit the pause button to check time remaining. . . . Honestly, this is a good kinda-slasher with one too many plot twists
Horrible, boring movie
I agree with others that this is an interesting concept. It will certainly give me pause going into any store with mannequins.
Underrated classic, a must watch film for any horror buff. 10 Skulls
Very creepy
