Evil Dead Trap (1988)
A talk show hostess asks her viewers to send in home videos to profile on her program. When she receives a snuff video, she and her crew set out to follow the path of the video and locate the scene of the crime and get to the bottom of this mystery. The only problem is that there is someone or something waiting for their arrival.

Director Toshiharu Ikeda has pulled out all the stops with this one, and despite the derivative nature of its storyline, "Evil Dead Trap" remains remarkably different, and is a memorable example of modern Japanese horror.

Reviews:
The Japanese horror movie to own.
Toshiharu Ikeda crossbreeds Daro Argento, Sam Raimi and Lucio Fulci for this gruesomely fascinating tour-de-force. Late-night TV show host gets a snuff film in the mail (which we see -- and be warned, it's appallingly realistic!), which she traces to an abandoned Army base. Horrific showdown with the forces of evil ensue, and the movie's final third is as much psychological horror as it is physical (or even metaphysical). Definitely not for weak stomachs. 16x9 remastered Synapse Video edition is a vast improvement over the rather soft-looking Dutch DVD that has been in circulation recently. Ikeda's "Dead Trap 2" and "Dead Trap 3" follow totally different directions; "2" owes more to the mystery-surrealism of David Lynch while "3" is more of a graphic Hitchcock style of story. All are worth owning.
"Inteligent Horror and Graphic Gore."
Warning their are scenes of intense violence contained within in this movie. However if you can stomach the gore this movie has a lot more to offer than you're standard hack and slash effort. There is a wonderfully intense atmosphere pervading the whole movie. The deaths are immaginative and are handled extremely well. The influnces although obvious (Argento, Ramai and a brilliant tribute to Fulci), Japanese director Toshiharu Ikeda adds his own twist to the procedings. If you are fed up of limp offerings that fail to deliver the goods then check this excellent film out.

Un tour de force!
Reviewer: Yanik Laroche
Ce film est extravagant. L'histoire est prétexte à des scènes de violence. Par contre, ce contexte permet une forme de mise en scène agressive et complètement survoltée. Démembremment, hurlement, torture sanglante, forces machiavéliques... tout y est. Certe, il existe d'autre moyens que la violence pour traduire cette forme de génie cinématographique mais ces extravagances sont permises, ou du moins acceptées par les fans du cinéma fantastique. Le DVD est supporté par une piste audio de commentaires du réalisateur et du superviseur des effets spéciaux. Ce qui ajoute de l'intérêt à certaine scènes du film puisqu'il arrive que le spectateur occidental se retrouve, quelque fois, hors contexte en ce qui attrait aux moeurs et coutumes orientals. En somme, c'est un bon film d'horreur à découvrir pour son originalité et son énergie expressive; deux qualités rares les temps qui courent, hein?

In addition to playing the latest games, Playstation 2 doubles as a lean, mean DVD video machine that may make you want to throw away your VCR. The DVD format offers superior audio and video to the aging VHS tape format. In addition, many DVD titles contain exclusive extras, including alternate endings and outtakes. If you're getting Playstation 2, then you may want to grab a few new DVD flicks to show off the goods!
