For years, the Lauder House has been plagued by strange and violent occurrences. Unexplained deaths and seemingly supernatural activities have scared away all prospective tenants and buyers, but now its owners have decided to turn the old mansion into a bed and breakfast. Follow a team of paranormal experts as they attempt to remove the demonic forces and cleanse the property of all evil, through the use of a special device designed to lure in and trap evil spirits. But as soon as they arrive the violence begins again, as members of the team begin to meet increasingly bloody fates...
Director Kevin Tenney's (NIGHT OF THE DEMONS) WITCHTRAP is a gleefully gory and over the top late 80s supernatural shocker. Starring James Quinn (WITCHBOARD) and featuring scream queen Linnea Quigley in the film's most memorable and creative death scene, Vinegar Syndrome is proud to bring this outrageous cult classic to Blu-ray, totally uncut, with its long censored gore fully intact, and in a brand new Director and Cinematographer approved restoration, for the first time anywhere in the world!

"Late 80’s classic"
"Had fun with this title. Well worth the pickup during the labor day oop sale."
"Not a "good" film, but some genuinely very funny unintentional comedy and great effects work."
"Wanted this for a while and luckily got it on the OOP sale. Loved this film since seeing it on VHS."
"Great artwork and movie!"
"Not a great movie to be honest"
"so fun, awesome packaging and features!"
"Glad to finally have this title at a great sale price!"
"Movie: Disappointing. Lacks a good spooky atmosphere, and the acting is consistently terrible, but not even in a way that's fun to watch. There are a couple of interesting touches here and there, but not enough to sustain interest or even provide much mocking fodder. The music wasn't too bad. Note: learning that _all_ of the dialogue had to be ADR'd because of technical issues helped explain why the acting felt so off, but doesn't really help with the enjoyment of watching the movie Extras: Plenty of interviews, although the audio ones are a bit hard to hear/focus on The included short film "Book of Joe" was neat to see since it has some of the actors in the movie. Packaging: Points for reversible cover, and the new art looks cool (maybe too cool for the movie)"
"Underratted 80's goodness. Fun watch!"
