  101 Films presents eerie mannequin horror Tourist Trap (1979). A massively underrated piece of late 70s genre cinema. Tourist Trap combines elements of both the supernatural and slasher subgenres to horrifying effect. Long overdue for reappraisal, Tourist Trap is now rightfully recognised as a macabre masterpiece of horror cinema.A group of unsuspecting young travellers stumbles upon Slausen's Lost Oasis, an eerie, long-abandoned wax museum hidden deep in the countryside. What begins as an innocent detour soon turns into a nightmarish trap, as they discover the sinister secrets lurking within its crumbling walls. Presiding over this grotesque sideshow is the enigmatic Mr. Slausen, a seemingly harmless caretaker harbouring a terrifying obsession. As the night unfolds, the travellers are plunged into macabre and sordid chambers of horror where wax figures come to life, and escape is nothing more than an illusion.SPECIAL FEATURESBrand new extras:Dolls, Toys, Mannequins! - Interview with Full Moon founder Charles BandTexas Tourist Trap! - Interview with editor Ted NicolaouThey're Alive! - Interview with actress Jocelyn JonesHoliday Horror - Interview with film critic Chris AlexanderArchive extras:Audio commentary with director David SchmoellerInterview with director David SchmoellerTrailer

• The Hitcher (Special Edition) | DVD | (14/07/2003) from £17.92   |  Saving you £2.07 (11.55%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Made in 1984, The Hitcher is an update--in spirit at least--of Steven Spielberg's first feature film, 1971's Duel. Here C Thomas Howell plays a guy taking a drive-away car from Chicago to San Diego. On a whim, in the rain, and against his better judgment, he picks up a hitchhiker (Rutger Hauer). The hitcher quickly admits to being a murdering psychopath and once Howell finally gets him out of his car, he is pursued with all the vengeance of the ancient furies. We're never sure if the hitcher is a figment of his imagination, making Howell a schizophrenic killer, or if he's real and Howell is the random victim of a wandering madman, which is how his potential new girlfriend (Jennifer Jason Leigh) thinks of him. Either way, The Hitcher is great fun, kinda scary and teetering on the brink of "must see". --Andy Spletzer

• The Postman Always Rings Twice | DVD | (06/12/1999) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  In The Postman Always Rings Twice, Jack Nicholson teamed up again with his Five Easy Pieces and King of Marvin Gardens director Bob Rafelson for this 1981 version of James M. Cain's hardboiled novel of lust and murder. This version takes a much grittier (and sexually explicit) approach to the material than the slick 1946 MGM version starring John Garfield and Lana Turner. Nicholson plays Frank Chambers, a drifter who happens upon a roadside diner run by Cora Papadakis (Jessica Lange) and her swarthy Greek husband, Nick (John Colicos). Sparks fly, and before you can say l'amour fou, Frank and Cora are making the beast with two backs on the kitchen table. One thing leads to another and they conspire to murder Nick. The movie is still a little too cold and distant to fully convey a hot-blooded passion that leads to murder, but it is a strangely haunting and disturbing film nevertheless. The screenplay is by David Mamet, the photography is by the great Sven Nykvist (Ingmar Bergman's cinematographer), and watch for Anjelica Huston in a supporting role. --Jim Emerson
