Director: Toshiharu Ikeda Cast: Miyuki Ono, Aya Katsuragi, Hitomi Kobayashi, Eriko Nakagawa, Masahiko Abe Running Time: 105 min. By Woody Ikeda’s “Evil Dead Trap” is a very entertaining mix of the giallo (slasher) films of Italy’s Dario Argento, that rushing camera trick from Raimi’s “Evil Dead” films, and the “body horror” of David Cronenberg. Stylistically, this is reminiscent of an Argento film…bright colors, creative murders, a never-still camera, the unseen … Continue reading

No specs are given at all (Amazon.com doesn’t even list a a brand or distributor!). I doubt they’re even letterbox versions. Come to think of it, you might even have to supply your own 3D glasses (so run to your nearest 7-11!). They even list “Chinese … Continue reading
