I'll be honest, after not being impressed with Puppet Master, The Seduction and Crawlspace, I didn't have the highest hopes for this movie, and the same goes for practically every Schmoeller movie I might watch after this.

The David Schmoeller marathon continues as I'm about to work my way through the rest of Tourist Trap, which is considered Schmoeller's crowning achievement.

Well, it's a pretty simple movie by a simple director who makes B-movies, indie movies, nudie movies, you know, the guy who doesn't put that much effort into his movies because he feels like he doesn't need them.
